With Martine Rose’s debut Nike colab just days away, we’re finally getting an all-angles look at the three distorted Monarchs. And it’s confirmed — they’re wild whichever way you look at them.
Rose threw the Monarch’s proportions out the window, creating its deformed protrusions by bending a size 18 to the will of a size nine sole unit. It all makes sense now, right? It’s not necessarily something you’d wear, but as an oddity, it’s a must, and 10 years from now we’ll still be marvelling at its weirdness.
So, have a scroll of the gallery above and make your choice.
