2001 Parallel Mule White / Grey / Black leather
Free socks with this pair · pick your size in the cart
Three tones. No laces. The Parallel Mule in White/Grey/Black is the most graphic expression of the mule lineup — a clean white leather base broken by deliberate grey and black detailing that gives the shoe a sharpness the softer colourways don't attempt. It's still a step-in. It just steps harder.
Open-back construction means you're in and out without bending down, while the Parallel's familiar proportions keep everything grounded. Premium leather from sustainable tanneries gives the upper a clean finish that wipes down easily, and our dual-layer footbed delivers the same cushion-meets-support system that runs through every shoe we make. No break-in period. No compromise on comfort.
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.
