The \u003cstrong\u003eXT-4 Mule\u003c\/strong\u003e is the most conceptually ambitious piece in the MM6 x Salomon collaboration — a shoe that asks what happens when MM6's deconstructivist philosophy is applied not just to the aesthetics of a trail running shoe, but to its fundamental construction. By removing the heel entirely from Salomon's XT-4 platform, MM6 creates a piece that is simultaneously a performance shoe, a fashion statement, and a conceptual provocation. The 'Black\/Nine Iron' colorway is the definitive expression of this radical silhouette — sophisticated, architectural, and endlessly wearable. The most talked-about piece in the MM6 x Salomon Spring 2026 Collection, and a must-have for Margiela collectors, Salomon enthusiasts, and anyone who wants to own a piece of sneaker culture history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MM6 Maison Margiela x Salomon","offers":[{"title":"3.5","offer_id":43208513454142,"sku":null,"price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4","offer_id":43208513486910,"sku":null,"price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4.5","offer_id":43208513519678,"sku":null,"price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5","offer_id":43208513552446,"sku":null,"price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5.5","offer_id":43208513585214,"sku":null,"price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6","offer_id":43208513617982,"sku":null,"price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6.5","offer_id":43208513650750,"sku":null,"price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"7","offer_id":43208513683518,"sku":null,"price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"7.5","offer_id":43208513716286,"sku":null,"price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8","offer_id":43208513749054,"sku":null,"price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8.5","offer_id":43208513781822,"sku":null,"price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"9","offer_id":43208513814590,"sku":null,"price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"9.5","offer_id":43208513847358,"sku":null,"price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10","offer_id":43208513880126,"sku":null,"price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10.5","offer_id":43208513912894,"sku":null,"price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0664\/4383\/7502\/files\/salomon-xt-4-mule-mm6-maison-margiela-black-nine-iron-1.jpg?v=1787058312","url":"https:\/\/www.kickshowcase.com\/products\/mm6-maison-margiela-x-salomon-xt-4-mule-black-nine-ironl49201100","provider":"Kicks Howcase","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
