Maison Martin Margiela 2003 Artisanal Cow Leather Biker Vest
This 2003 Martin Margiela Artisanal leather biker vest is a rare piece of fashion history. Crafted during the period when Martin Margiela himself actively led design, the Artisanal line transformed vintage garments into entirely unique creations. Every piece from this series is one of a kind, remade by hand around 2003 from recycled vintage motorcycle jackets. Made from 100 percent cow leather, this vest captures the avant-garde spirit that defines the brand.
This item is secondhand and in overall poor condition, showing clear signs of wear throughout. The lower section of the interior lining features a black cloth repair patch that was already present at the time of original purchase. In addition, the zipper pull for the main front closure and the pull for the right front pocket are both missing.
The vest is tagged French size 1, corresponding approximately to a standard size medium. Its measurements are 61 cm in length, 94 cm across the chest, and 84 cm at the waist.
