Thank you for viewing! These are Tabi boots from the Martin Margiela era. According to the description at the time of purchase from Laila Tokyo, they are from around the 90s. The shape is different from the current ones because the wooden molds used to make the shoes changed between the Martin era and now. Therefore, they are very valuable and hard to come by these days. I purchased them a few years ago from Laila Tokyo in good condition and have worn them about twice. I had the soles re-soled at the time of purchase. As my style of clothing has changed, I would like someone else to wear them, so I am putting them up for sale. The ankle area is narrower than the current ones, so your legs look beautiful. The thick heel made them comfortable to wear. Regarding the size, EU size 40 is listed as 25 in Japanese sizes, but I think it's quite small. I usually wear 24.5, and they fit perfectly. - Color: Black - Sole Material: Rubber sole - Heel: 8cm - Condition of the soles: Used (The soles have been re-soled) - Material: Genuine leather Stains/tears: I think they are relatively clean. However, please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned, as they have been stored by a private individual. They did not come with a box when I purchased them, so they will be shipped in a different box. #MartinMargiela #maisonMargiela #マルタンマルジェラ (Martin Margiela) #メゾンマルジェラ (Maison Margiela) #タビブーツ (Tabi boots) #足袋 (Tabi)
