Maison Martin Margiela is definitely not the first shoe designer to release a pair of cork shoes but if my memory haven’t failed me, this is the first pair of Cork Pump (correct me if I’m wrong please). For example, there is the Christian Louboutin African Queen Cork Slingbacks and many more, but not an all cork pump. I’m honestly not a huge fan of cork shoes but this pair of MMM cork pumps ($545) just draws my attention to it, it’s simple and unique. In addition to the Cork Pump
, there is also a Cork Peep Toe Sandal, Cork Clutch
, Cork Necklace
and a Cork Belt
. Fab or not?
Loeffler Randall made a pair of cork pumps and flats a couple of seasons ago… Spring 2007
sorry i can’t find any pictures, because it’s so long ago!

Posted By: modernlunacy | March 23rd, 2008 at 1:22 amLoeffler Randall made a pair of cork pumps. It looked similar, but had metallic flecks in it. I believe the heels were a bit shorter. The style was “Hazel”.
