2001 Parallel Mule White Leather / Light Grey
The cleanest version of the Parallel Mule. White leather meets a whisper of light grey — a sneaker-mule that reads as fresh and considered without demanding attention. This is the one that works with linen trousers, summer dresses, and the kind of weekend where you don't want to think about what's on your feet.
The open-back mule construction strips the Parallel silhouette to its essentials: step in, feel the dual-layer footbed catch your heel, and go. Premium leather from sustainable tanneries gives the upper a clean, wipe-down finish, while the natural rubber outsole keeps you grounded through long days on warm pavement.
Designed in New Zealand. For every pair sold, we plant a tree and support a charity you choose.

Every pair ships with two footbeds: a cushioned top layer that absorbs impact, over a firm base that holds its shape all day. Wear both. If you want more room, lift one out.
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.
