The rounded, slightly squared toe is subtly sculpted, revealing gentle impressions that echo the contours of the foot, a signature gesture of Rei Kawakubo’s interest in distorting and reinterpreting conventional design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"834\" data-start=\"550\"\u003eThe absence of structure allows the leather to collapse and mold naturally over time, creating a lived-in surface marked by soft creasing and movement. This fluidity contrasts with the traditional rigidity of formal footwear, offering instead a sense of intimacy and quiet disruption.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1107\" data-start=\"836\"\u003eA low-profile sole and seamless upper construction emphasize the shoe’s closeness to the ground, reinforcing its understated, almost invisible presence when worn. The cut is clean and uninterrupted, with a low vamp that further elongates and refines the line of the foot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-is-only-node=\"\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-end=\"1333\" data-start=\"1109\"\u003eAn evocative piece from the late 1990s—when Comme des Garçons was deeply engaged in redefining the relationship between garment and body—these flats embody a poetic balance of austerity, vulnerability, and conceptual design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003eComme Des Garcons\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003eSize: 24 1\/2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003eFabric: No Fabric Label- Feels like Leather\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e1999 Collection \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003eVery Good Vintage Condition\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eMinor Scratches to Leather on Both Shoes, and Minor Marks to Front of Right Shoe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003eWear to Interior and Soles\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003eWear Consistent with Age, Use, and Material\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003ePhotos from Vogue.com\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003eAuthenticity Guaranteed \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"COMME DES GARCONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48586486448384,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0279\/4481\/2676\/files\/CDG1999BLACKLEATHERBALLERINAFLATS2.jpg?v=1776737551","url":"https:\/\/resurrectionvintage.com\/products\/comme-des-garcons-black-leather-ballerina-flats-1999","provider":"Resurrection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
