MARGARET HOWELL X NORMAN WALSH

A real collectors item from a 2009, a collaboration between heritage footwear label Norman Walsh and the London based high end fashion designer Margaret Howell.

The MHL trainer was based on the time honoured Walsh PB Elite X’treme fell running shoe, which uses ultra light weight and fast drying water resistant material. 

With an exclusive use of a material called Xymid, that gives extra stability and protection to the toe, heel and instep, the shoe combines technical functionality with Margaret Howell’s modernist design ethos.
 
The trainers were available in two colour-way combinations unique to Margaret Howell and available exclusively from Margaret Howell stores and MHL online. The MHL logo is stitched onto the tongue with a Walsh authenticity label is discretely on the reverse.

In excellent condition, very clean and bright with minimal signs of wear to the material upper. Some wear to the soles. Very light and comfortable. A reluctant sale from the Room 606 design collection. Extremely rare.

Non-payment

All non-paying bidders are, without exception, reported to eBay. This is not for the sake of being vindictive, but because eBay charges retrospective fees calculated on the actual sale price of items and this money needs to be retrieved. It's hard enough to make ends meet on here as it is! Thank you for your understanding. Please refer to eBay's policy on non-payment for more information, including its ramifications for the bidder.



Condition of items

Please note that, unless clearly stated otherwise, my listings are for vintage/antique items and therefore, by definition, are not going to be in the same condition you would expect from a brand new item. Please be assured that I always endeavour to offer the most accurate description possible of the item's condition and take multiple illustrative photographs.
