A true stalwart of the fashion industry, COMME des GARÇONS continues to deliver the perfect blend of what appears overly simply and outrageous. On some occasions, they shift steeply towards the bland end of the spectrum with basic triple-black treatments, but on other occasions they truly bend the rules and display an audacity that only they can truly pull off. Of all their coveted masterpieces in recent years, none have sparked conversation as much as their Nike Shox TL. Instantly recognizable for its full-length Shox cushioning pillars, the COMME des Garcons team adds the same extended edges seen in their Mowabb concept of 2018, but the real bling arrives in the gold cuban-linked chain and the massive trinket that sits above the laces. True, not all can pull this off, but should you be up to the challenge, get them at Dover Street Market retailers worldwide on June 13th (currently available at select retailers in Japan).
