Mallet London, the premium sneaker brand founded by UK TV star Tommy Mallet and businessman Evren Ozkarakasl, has just dropped a limited-edition footwear collection in partnership with the capital’s biggest transport network, Transport for London.
Paying homage to the iconic Underground Tube map designed by Harry Beck in 1933, the co-branded collection seeks to commemorate the enduring spirit and resilience of London—as well as its rich cultural heritage—through a sleek and stylish take on its signature Knox shoe. Offered in black and white colour options, both styles feature the legendary schematic illustration of the network in reflective silver and tonal white, respectively. The details continue with branded keychains, embossed collaborative heels, and a lace shroud that also acts as a cardholder.
“Growing up in Islington and taking the 271 bus from New North Road to Archway, the 38 bus from Essex Road to Angel and Hackney and regular journeys on the Central line from Liverpool Street to Epping, all I would think about on these journeys was owning my own sneaker brand,” says Tommy Mallet. “Fast forward to 2023, and although Mallet London is stocked worldwide in some of the biggest department stores across the globe, the heart of the brand will always be in London which is how the Mallet x TfL collaboration came to be.”
The limited-edition range is available now exclusively online on mallet.com.
