New Year, New Site

Hello!

Welcome to the new Underground-England blog!

We didn’t just eat excessive amounts of mince pies over the winter months. Oh no, we did anything but prepare for hibernation – we put our space age thinking caps on at the end of 08 and decided to make things a lot more enjoyable for our Internet consumers in 2009.

Being inspired by so many varieties of art, especially music and the fashions it brings, which can clearly be seen from Underground’s unique shoe designs, we wanted to take it one interactive step closer to showing you what goes on with some of the people we sponsor and why, like you, they choose to wear our brand.

My names Kelly and I’m a freelance music and lifestyle journalist from Manchester. I’m the new music correspondent for Underground, which is by all accounts, pretty fun. I’m addicted to watching and writing about live music. Oh, and comfy shoes that I can wear to gigs without carrying blister plasters!

I really like the designs Underground produce and the ethics and thinking behind them so I wanted to get involved with the company. Also, as a vegetarian, there’s loads of choice for canvas pumps and boots, which can be difficult to find from some well-known brands. Make sure you have a good browse through all our new stock to find your perfect pair.

Along with our cameraman Kyle, I’ll be talking to the artists who get us so excited we have to tell you about their talents in blogs and videos. We’ll also be running exclusive competitions for our customers and fans of the bands.

Our press lady Axe will be keeping you up to date on Underground’s success in the fashion world on this blog – she’s so cool that she’s even designed her own range of shoes! So keep reading to bag yourself a pair of her limited edition designs.

If you have any questions about how to get your music involved at Underground, or to send any hampers filled with kittens and chocolates, you can email me here:
