Reebok and Maison Margiela have revealed plans for a second sneaker collaboration, this time putting the Tabi spin on the Classic Leather sneaker. The shoe was first revealed on Instagram Stories by Kim Kardashian West, as well as fashion plate A$AP Nast.
Reebok and Maison Margiela’s Classic Leather Tabi features a black leather upper covered with a splashed on coat of white paint enabling the black to show through. The effect is known as Bianchetto, a rough hewn form of white washing know as one of Maison Margiela’s design codes.
The two shoes share a decade with the Classic Leather first released in 1983 with the Tabi making its runway debut in Paris in the summer of 1988.
The Classic Leather Tabi is a follow up to Reebok and Maison Margiela’s first silhouette, an Instapump Fury Tabi released in September 2020.
Priced at $350, Reebok and Mainson Margiela’s Classic Leather Tabi will launch on maisonmargiela.com and reebok.com on January 30, 2021.
