MM6 Maison Margiela x Salomon XT-4 Mule 'Spectrum Blue Gradient' (L47540200)
MM6 Maison Margiela x Salomon XT-4 Mule — 'Spectrum Blue Gradient' (L47540200)
The MM6 Maison Margiela x Salomon XT-4 Mule 'Spectrum Blue Gradient' is the most visually arresting and chromatically ambitious colorway in the MM6 x Salomon XT-4 Mule lineup — a shoe that takes the collaboration's already radical deconstructivist mule silhouette and elevates it further with a gradient colorway that moves through the full spectrum of blue, from deep midnight to pale sky, in a single continuous wash of color. Where the 'Black/Nine Iron' colorway expresses the XT-4 Mule's conceptual construction through restraint and tonal sophistication, the 'Spectrum Blue Gradient' expresses it through chromatic ambition and visual drama — a colorway that is simultaneously a performance shoe, a fashion statement, and a wearable work of art.
Key Design Details
- Collaboration: MM6 Maison Margiela x Salomon — the landmark collaboration between MM6 Maison Margiela, the conceptual diffusion line of Paris-based luxury fashion house Maison Margiela, and Salomon, the French outdoor performance brand founded in Annecy in 1947
- Silhouette: MM6 Maison Margiela x Salomon XT-4 Mule — the most conceptually radical piece in the MM6 x Salomon collaboration, transforming Salomon's iconic XT-4 trail running platform into a backless mule silhouette through MM6's signature deconstructivist approach

About the MM6 Maison Margiela x Salomon XT-4 Mule 'Spectrum Blue Gradient'
Maison Margiela is the Paris-based luxury fashion house founded by Martin Margiela in 1988, celebrated worldwide for its deconstructivist approach to fashion and its ability to challenge and redefine the conventions of luxury. MM6 Maison Margiela is the brand's conceptual diffusion line — more accessible than the mainline but equally committed to the deconstructivist vision. Salomon is the French outdoor performance brand founded in Annecy in 1947, whose trail running silhouettes have become cornerstones of the outdoor-meets-fashion movement. The XT-4 Mule is the most conceptually ambitious piece in the MM6 x Salomon collaboration, and the 'Spectrum Blue Gradient' colorway is its most visually dramatic expression. Where the 'Black/Nine Iron' colorway ($169) expresses the XT-4 Mule's radical construction through tonal restraint and architectural sophistication, the 'Spectrum Blue Gradient' expresses it through chromatic ambition and visual drama — a gradient that moves through the full spectrum of blue in a single continuous wash, transforming the shoe into a wearable work of art. A must-have for Margiela collectors, Salomon enthusiasts, and anyone who wants to own the most visually arresting piece in the MM6 x Salomon collaboration.
