2001 Parallel Mule Pink Suede / Ivory
Free socks with this pair · pick your size in the cart
There's a shade of pink that stops being sweet and starts being interesting. This is that shade. The Parallel Mule in Pink Suede pairs soft, brushed suede with a clean ivory base — a sneaker-mule that reads as intentional from every angle. No laces, no fuss, no second-guessing at the door.
The open-back silhouette borrows the Parallel's proportions and strips away everything unnecessary. What's left is pure ease: a step-in shoe with our dual-layer footbed system underneath — cushion where your heel lands, support through your arch. Suede from sustainable tanneries gives the upper a texture that photographs can't fully capture. You'll notice it in person.
Designed in New Zealand. For every pair sold, we plant a tree and support a charity you choose.

Every pair ships with two footbeds: the main insole, with the arch support built in, and an extra footbed underneath it. Your arch is held up rather than sinking into foam, which is the thing people mention most after the first week. Wear both. If you want more room, lift out the extra footbed underneath and the arch support stays where it is.
Our 2001 Parallel and Crossroads styles run about half a size smaller than our other styles. If you're between sizes, go up. Size guide.
Two sets of laces in the box. The regular ones you tie, and the Lightning laces: flat, elastic, done up once. After that you slip in and out, and the shoe still looks laced.
Spare colours are $14.90. Shop laces.
