My first pair of creepers were Dalmation print black ones, I bought these from the Oxford Street Office store around a year ago. They originally retail at £95 but I got £9.50 (10%) student discount off! I put off buying creepers for about a year before I actually caved because of the heafty price tag, but after research into the leading brand Underground, I gained knowledge how greatly the shoes were made. With the cheaper versions of creepers the sole is usually made from foam, but Underground uses very heavy duty rubber, which is why these shoes last years and years.
Sorry they're so battered! Well loved and all.
The shoes themselves are extremely comfy, I could easily walk around in these all day, they feel soft on the feet and it doesn't feel like you're walking on top of 2 inches worth of hardcore rubber!
One thing I would say is they are very heavy, this could become a problem if you have extremely skinny ankles as as well the shoes come up slightly big.
I was strolling through ASOS sale, and I came across a few pairs of Underground creepers in the sale, they we're around £60 but I wasn't swayed. I then saw these, green with a thick white sole, now I know these aren't going to be everyones taste, but I absolutely loved them! and the best thing of all they we're only £26! Absolute bargain, I actually bought 2 pairs and sold one on ebay and made an extra 20 quid! (skills I know).
Not as worn but definitely had a good wear! Not the most versatile shoe, but a statement, and Teddy fashion dating back to the 50's, I don't care if creepers aren't 'on trend' anymore!

Hello! Does the Office store on Oxford Street carry their sale items as well? I'm heading to the UK and I don't know if I should just get it off Office! Could you tell me more about the sizing as well? Thank you x
ReplyDeleteI just ordered a pair of creepers from TUK..after that I did some research and found out that they actually cracked after just afew wears.
ReplyDeleteHave yet to receive my TUK but was already disappointed by it. I guess I'm getting the underground creepers, but only if they are on sale.
How was it so far?

The sole on my my first pair of underground creepers split after 4 weeks. The replacement pair split in a number of places and I had to take Underground to the small claims court to get a refund
