Sorry I don't have a picture handy, but I am sure you all know that Margiela uses Tabi boots. I have a debate going with my friend that goes something like this.....
I say that it would be Okay for a designer to come out, do a show, use Tabi boots and sell Tabi boots just as Margiela does.
He says because Margiela has "deemed" the tabi boot his and people recognize it as Margiela it would be wrong, and cheating in a way, and also hurt the designer.
I say that Margiela didn't "create" the tabi and besides that people make heels, boots, shoes, etc. that look much like many others! Why should Margiela's Tabi be left alone and why has it?
