British footwear imprint Mallet London unveils a new Holloway running shoe to join its roster highlighting performance as well as comfort and durability. The lightweight construction makes the shoe perfect for lifestyle purposes as well. When the shoe was created, co-founder Tommy Mallet drew inspiration from his regular route of walking to school in North London.
As a result, the snug shoe is what he envisions to be the ideal option during his long morning walk. The sneaker starts off with white leather panels that are overlapping the mudguards and are secured by white lacing systems and heels as well. This is contrasted by black in the form of mesh underlaying to create a textured finish along with metallic accents.
