MM6 Maison Margiela x Salomon FW22 Footwear Closer Look

After introducing experimental thigh-high boots for Spring/Summer 2023, MM6 Maison Margiela and Salomon reconnect in Fall/Winter 2022 for a more wearable series featuring low-top laceless hiking runners and high-top lightweight boots. MM6 is known for its imaginative collaborations which most recently include warped padded backpacks with Eastpak and Roly-Poly garment styles with The North Face, delivering innovative and accessible pieces for everyday life. With Salomon already in the limelight, thanks to its distinctive styles which straddle the line between footwear for outdoor adventure and urban exploration, MM6 Maison Margiela delivers eye-catching renditions of the functional silhouettes.

The collaborative low-tops resemble a cross between the highly-popular XT-6 sportstyle runner and the Hike 2 low-top boots featuring split sole units consisting of a raised Energy Cell heel and heavily-grooved lugs. TPU film and neon green leather accent lines wrap around the bottom half of the uppers with a new nylon shroud design extending above, secured via a Quicklace™ system. The hightops feature a similar sole unit with lightweight, gridded nylon uppers and suede overlays appearing in Salomon's signature stacked triangle patterns. Speed laces stretch over the mesh tongue and a Quicklace™ system is secured via metal hook eyelets. Thus far, two low-top and three high-top colorways have been revealed as seen above.

Take a closer look at the new MM6 x Salomon FW22 footwear introductions above and stay tuned for release details.
