Understated Versatility
The Goodsole Parallel Sneakers in Tropical Taupe Suede with White Leather are a study in refined neutrality. Soft taupe suede forms a rich, textural base, complemented by crisp white leather stripes that bring a clean, modern contrast. The result is a balanced silhouette — grounded yet elevated — designed for effortless, everyday wear.
This is a sneaker for those who appreciate quiet confidence and considered style. Versatile by nature, it integrates seamlessly into any wardrobe, offering timeless appeal with a contemporary edge.
Thoughtfully Made
Sustainability sits at the core of every pair. The canvas used in our vulcanised sneakers is fully organic, while the rubber soles are sourced from natural, renewable materials. Each style features specialised, washable comfort footbeds, crafted with 25% plant-based materials and finished with a 70% recycled fabric covering.
Where leather is used, it is sourced from Leather Working Group-certified tanneries — supporting responsible and environmentally conscious practices across the supply chain.
Finishing details are equally considered: laces are made with a high proportion of organic cotton, each pair is accompanied by a 100% organic cotton dust bag, and the packaging is crafted from 100% post-consumer recycled cardboard, complete with a recycled polyester fabric handle — eliminating the need for an additional carry bag.
Size Guide
If you're unsure or in-between sizes, we suggest going up to the nearest whole size.
Our 2001 Parallel and Crossroads styles tend to run half a size smaller than all other styles.
