There is no denying the ongoing casualisation of the workplace. But while it may be getting more socially acceptable to turn up to work in your trainers, there is still a level of ‘put togetherness’ our radical creative customers naturally want to feel.
With this idea in mind, when it comes to designing our sneaker collections we are always considering ways our products can help customers show up as the best version of themselves whilst still maintaining that all important hit of radical individuality (something mass made sneaker brands can’t hit).
Here is our list of limited edition styles for ‘on-duty’ moments that will take you from the studio to the Boardroom, or even all the way to yard duty in exclusive radical style…
Ballet Core Retro Sneaker in Crushed Gold Leather - made in a small batch of 140
Designed with a suit in mind. The lower profile cut of this sharp trainer speaks to the professional heart of what we do. Sleek and modern with just the right amount of shine, we dreamed this one up for the many architects and interior designers we work with who need a style that helps define their creative vision.
Super Journey Velcro Sneaker in Metallic Silver - made in a small batch of 100
If you are a hairdresser or nurse - or just someone who stands on their feet all day, Super Journey is your new BFF. Set on a fully flexible, bouncy rubber outsole made intentionally double height thick this shoe also features a fully removable insole and is orthotic friendly. Featuring fast getaway velcro straps, the premium leather upper also makes the spills and thrills of these more active vocations easy to wipe off.
Movement Buckle Shoe in Cement Leather - made in a small batch of 100
Dreamed up for the teachers, the librarians and all those workplaces where you need to have covered toes but still want to maintain your fashion dignity (we know who you amazing women are and we are here for you!). Part sandal, part sneaker (we sometimes call them a ‘shandal’), the Movement shoe has become the go-to work shoe staple for many of our customers.
Pretty Sweet Sneaker in Black Suede & Nylon - made in a small batch of 80
Forget the ‘just got back from gym’ vibes sneakers at work can sometimes be at risk of falling into. With it’s all black everything finish, Pretty Sweet has the chameleon energy of a lace up loafer and loves being worn as such. Match with pull up black socks, a long line skirt and blazer for a more modern take on the your cross-city commute days.
The Super Model Sneaker in White Leather - made in a small batch of 100
10,000 steps worthy! The best accent to a pair of black man-style pants is a fresh white sneaker. Our Supermodel sneakers were designed with a hint of yellow on the eyestay (the part where the laces go), for a conversational colour pop. Match these with a crisp white shirt and pull all the preppy vibes for your next PT meeting. All the comfort feels but still a kind of power play put togetherness going on. Radical and Yes.
Ballet Core Retro Sneaker in Daisy Satin & Suede
Colour, but make it all-work-occasion wearable. As noted by our stylish friends at Homeroom recently - this shoe is the “alternative to *those* sneakers but wanting a fun colour regardless.They’re made in small batches so you won’t be seeing them on every man and their dog.”
