Rescued in the 1980’s from contempt and obloquy Underground championed the creeper as an Allgender flatform before its time.
The Apollo Creeper was not only one of the first styles to be produced by Underground but its 001 code number tells you that is was the first style in our Originals Collection. The lace up Barfly creeper identified by its 005 designation.
Built on a sharp toe last named Meteor, these Creepers a corrugated sole design, an interlace weave on the apron and in some versions the contrasting panels or underlays on the apron.
Founded in 1981, Underground has established itself as a champion of subculture with its consistent interaction with the music, fashion and art associated to those cultures. Here is a brand that beats with a British “musiculture” heart, has provenance and authenticity in abundance, an unswerving narrative, and an inexhaustible contemporary relevance.
Part of our commitment to sensible and sustainable manufacturing.
Because we recognise that our customers have a personal choice regarding the material that is used in our footwear. Also our Vegan friendly collection is designed to meet the requirements of Underground customers that have a preference for products that do not contain animal products.
Also we have selected a special non-animal material, Onmicro, that has the appearance and attributes of leather and will perform in the same way as leather. The collection includes many of our core styles, but it is also possible to order custom made products using Onmicro.
Our commitment to sensible manufacture is supported by our custom made service for Underground Creepers Shoes Boots.
Authentic, British, Subculture inspired footwear.
Our custom-made service also allows customers to select any of our original designs. Using the long-term relationship with our manufacturers to build up trust and a cooperative spirit this enables us to offer customers the option to select special colours or materials to produce one pair that is custom made for them. Also there is no mass over – production and waste.
In our pursuit to proudly propagate Britain’s rebellious style heritage, we’ve turned up the dial on our responsibility. Because for 40 years we’ve tapped into the riches and sounds of British subculture; it’s our responsibility to give back in order to sustain it.
The Made-in-the-UK collection champions this country’s quality craftspeople and their long legacy of proven manufacturing. Made-in-the-UK sees us work with skilled experts and leaders of their field and also to help them preserve generations of innovative artistry and ingenuity.
