BALMAIN and BARBIE join forces and launch an exclusive ski boot

​​Betting on the growing consumption of winter footwear linked to skiing, for urban use, the French brand partnered with MATTEL Inc., the American company that manufactures the famous BARBIE dolls, in order to join a vast proposal, with an exclusive design of boots of this style.

The new After Ski Tundra boots by BALMAIN-BARBIE have their shafts made with waterproof quilted polyester fabrics, where the BALMAIN monogram print stands out in pink colors typical of the doll brand. The shafts of 35 cms. high, are crowned by a gathered adjustment with matching satin ribbons.

The base is composed of a wide and oval EVA sole, 2.5 cm. high, which presents a piece of perimeter leather superimposed on the upper, in a similar color to the sole, to reinforce its enveloping characteristic and greater foot protection.

They are made in Bosnia, and the final price in online sales is US$ 575 a pair.
