Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Leather Laceless Loafer by Maison Martin Margiela Shines for Summer

— June 6, 2011 — Fashion
The new leather laceless loafer for men by Maison Martin Margiela is an originally designed shoe that will certainly turn heads this season. These leather loafers have a glow-like quality to them as their exterior and are adorned with the softest leather that has been painted using a variety of luminous colors including gold, silver, brown and mustard.

The laceless design is very typical of fashion house Maison Martin Margiela and these loafers, despite their contemporary colorway, are classy and timeless. The shoes are very reminiscent of a pair of vintage bowling shoes or clown shoes. The distressed leather also adds an antique quality to the shoes which is certainly eye-catching and makes these shoes stand out from everyday loafers. These shoes are a must-have for the summer season ahead!
