A proper chunky trainer. These have the full late-'90s sports silhouette — sculpted sole, layered panels, a slightly exaggerated stance — but done in soft, clean colour rather than anything loud. Blush pink, sky blue and warm cream, always against white, so the shape does the talking and the palette stays gentle.
The upper is built in layers you can read at a glance. Smooth white vegan leather (62–66% plant-origin materials) laid over open woven panels at the toe and quarter, with grey overlays wrapping the heel and the eyestay — each piece edged, stitched and set slightly proud of the one beneath, so even the palest colourway has depth and shadow in it.
The sole is where the volume comes from: a chunky TR outsole in tonal grey, curving in a wave along the sidewall and cut with a deep tread underneath, lifting and lengthening the foot without weighing it down. The collar and tongue are padded generously, there's a woven pull tab at the heel, and the lacing runs through metal eyelets in zamak, a durable zinc alloy. Underfoot, a layered insole with a soft memory-foam top on a recycled PU base (20% recycled PU).
Each colour does something a little different — pink is the warmest, with the blush picked up again as a stripe through the sole stack; blue is the crispest and most sporty; cream is the quiet one that goes with everything.
Wear them with grey sweats and a hoodie, wide or barrel-leg denim, cropped trousers with a bit of ankle showing, or a slip skirt or midi when you want something chunky under something soft. The woven panels keep them light and cool, so they're as much a summer trainer as a winter one. Comfortable, good-looking, and easy to keep reaching for.
- Upper
- Italian bio-based vegan leather (62–66% plant-origin materials)
- Lining
- Portuguese vegan suede (100% PU) – soft and comfortable against the foot, with a breathable suede texture that helps keep feet fresh
- Insole
- Cushioned layered insole – a soft memory foam top layer over a recycled PU base (20% recycled PU) cut to fit the shoe
- Outsole
- Chunky TR outsole (with recycled TR content) in a tonal grey, with a treaded sole for grip.
- Shank

We've made this chart to help you choose the right size. You'll need your foot length measurement to get started. Once you've found your perfect fit with us, you can typically select the same size for all other models.
Fit and comfort notes:
- Width and volume: our footwear is designed with a slightly wider D width fitting, offering more width and volume than most brands.
- Materials: we use high quality vegan leather and suede. These materials are stable and won't stretch out significantly over time, so we recommend sizing up for comfort.
- The perfect fit: you don't want the shoes to pinch your feet. You should have wiggle room for your toes and no rub points.
- Feel: in most cases you'll find our footwear is comfy straight out of the box. Depending on the style or your foot shape, it can sometimes take a few wears for the uppers to soften and mould to your feet.

How to take your foot length measurement
- Stand on a hard surface with your heel against a wall.
- Measure your foot from the heel (the wall) to the longest point of your toes.
- Use this number to find your size in the chart above.
It is helpful to measure both feet, as one foot is often slightly larger than the other. Always choose the size that accommodates your longest foot.
