Dirk Bikkembergs Laced Metal Heel Mountaineering Boots size 37
This beautiful iteration of the classic AW/96 Steel Heel boots has all the elements with a slight twist. The boot is a low-top with a lacing system incorporated. A unique style containing six eyelets & a gap in the middle meant to be used for lacing through heel. Dirk was always fascinated with the mountaineering aspects & sporting elements. Which can be clearly seen on this silhouette, opting for a lower shaft height giving further comfort while walking in leather boots. The most striking aspect evidently being the metal heels but also with the addition of the interwoven laces with Blue/Purple & Black colors classic in the 90s. Along with the iconic squared off toe box reminiscent of ski boots.
Metal tips seen on the ends of the laces giving a sharp look to the overall silhouette.
