In referencing the label’s Pre-Fall 2018 collection, Anthony Vaccarello respectfully touched on Yves Saint Laurent’s deep-rooted fondness for Marrakech — an area of western Morocco responsible for much of the house’s archival designs — to craft these fringed desert boot silhouettes.

Similar in concept to visvim’s Yucca Moc Shaman, the Saint Laurent variation makes creative use of premium camel-brown suede throughout, complete with tonal braid stitching and fringed ankle cuffs. Set to a price of $766 USD, this new footwear silhouette will be making its debut at such retailers as matchesfashion.com in the near future. Be sure to check back for future updates

Elsewhere in footwear, HUMAN MADE & George Cox link up on a trio of statement Creeper silhouettes.
