Product Details
The pub. More than just somewhere to have a drink, it’s a social hub, a space of connection, conversation, and community. After a game of five-a-side, before or after watching your team play, or simply catching up with friends, the pub is where stories are shared and friendships deepen. For many, especially men, it’s one of the few spaces where real, honest conversation happens.
For me, it’s also somewhere I go to talk about ideas and share creative thoughts, a place that’s become part of my process as much as my social life.
The pub has always influenced my art practice. It represents identity, belonging and that shared cultural experience that’s so distinctly British.
These custom trainers, titled “The House of Toby,” are a continuation of that exploration. You’ll often see “The House of Toby” outside old British pubs, a small piece of pub heritage that nods to tradition and familiarity. I wanted the trainers to capture that same warmth and character.
Each element draws from the pub’s interior details: the heel takes inspiration from pub stained glass windows and incorporates the ‘SC’ motif; the Under Armour logo reflects the warm amber glow of pub lighting; the sides echo the heavy wooden panels found throughout classic interiors; and the toe box borrows from the intricate patterns of traditional pub carpets.
Every brushstroke is intentional yet imperfect, a reminder that they’re hand-painted, not printed or stencilled. ‘The House of Toby’ is my tribute to the pub. To craft, culture, and conversation and to the spaces where creativity, community, and ideas come to life.
