3001 Breeze Walnut Suede
The Breeze is what happens when you build a sneaker for the hot months first and the rest of the year second. Soft walnut suede wraps the toe, heel and eyestay, and everything in between is open mesh, so air moves through the shoe instead of around it. Underneath, a gum sole keeps the whole thing low, flexible and grounded.
The laces are the detail you notice second: a white pair and a brown speckled pair, worn together. The 3001 last sits low and wide, closer to the ground than the Parallel, and the contoured footbed inside gives your arch something to rest on from the first wear. Two footbeds in the box, as always. Stack them for a snug fit or lift the top one out for more room.

Every pair ships with two footbeds: a cushioned top layer that absorbs impact, over a firm, contoured base with the arch support built in. 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 the top one out 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.
