So, I’ve been seeing these MM6 Maison Margiela x Salomon shoes popping up everywhere, and I finally decided to give them a shot. I’ve always been a fan of Salomon’s hiking shoes, I mean, they’re super comfy, perform well on the trail, and last forever, you know? But this collab with Maison Margiela seemed like something totally different.
First, I scrolled through a bunch of online stores. I saw that some places like FWRD had them, and they were all about that “chic fall fashion” vibe. Even Macy’s carried them, which was a bit surprising. I mean, they’re not your usual department store fare, are they?
Then I dug a little deeper. I found out that this wasn’t the first time MM6 Maison Margiela and Salomon teamed up. Apparently, they’ve been doing these collaborations for a while now, mixing that high-fashion look with Salomon’s sporty style.
I finally bit the bullet and ordered a pair from Salomon’s official website. I figured it was the safest bet to get the real deal. I spotted the address somewhere in Vestbyveien, Norway, if I recall correctly.
- Waiting for them to arrive was torture! I was so excited to see how they looked in person.
- When the box finally showed up, I ripped it open like a kid on Christmas morning.
- And there they were! They definitely looked different from my usual Salomon hiking shoes. More stylish, for sure.
I’ve been wearing them around town for a few weeks now, and I gotta say, I’m impressed. They’re surprisingly comfortable, and they definitely turn heads. People keep asking me where I got them.
I even took them on a short hike last weekend, just to see how they’d hold up. They did pretty well, although I probably wouldn’t wear them on a super intense trek. They’re more for that “fashion-meets-function” kind of vibe, you know?
My final thoughts?
These MM6 Maison Margiela x Salomon shoes are a cool mix of style and practicality. If you’re looking for something unique and comfy, they’re definitely worth checking out. Just don’t expect them to replace your heavy-duty hiking boots, okay?
