2001 Touring Lace Pale Blue Lace / Suede
Free socks with this pair · pick your size in the cart
Lace. On a sneaker.
The Touring Lace takes the 2001 silhouette you know and opens up the side panels and sets floral lace into them, with nothing behind it, so air moves straight through. Pale blue suede holds the toe, the eyestay and the heel, with tonal laces and a gum sole underneath. From across the room it reads as a clean pastel sneaker. Up close, the pattern does the work. On a hot day it is the difference between a sneaker you wear and one you take off at the door. It is the most delicate thing we have made, and it still walks like a Goodsole.
Inside, nothing changes. The contoured footbed holds your arch from the first wear, and the extra footbed sits underneath it. If you have a wider foot, lift out the extra footbed underneath. The shoe opens up and the arch support stays exactly where it was. Lightning laces come in the box, so you do them up once and slip in and out.
A short first run, sizes 36 to 41. If this one goes the way we think it will, we will tell you when more are coming.
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.
