Stepney Workers Club (SWC), renowned for its timeless reinterpretations of classic styles, introduces the Osier S-Strike, its second running silhouette and a true celebration of ’70s running design. Launched amidst the spring sunshine, this silhouette combines the nostalgic charm of vintage runners with modern technological advancements, making it a must-have for both sneaker enthusiasts and everyday adventurers.
The Osier S-Strike: A Nod to the ’70s with a Modern Twist
The Osier S-Strike draws inspiration from the simplicity and functionality of 1970s running shoes. Featuring a blend of luxurious hairy suede and early-tech nylon, the design prioritizes comfort and durability. The sneakers come in five vibrant colors—Black, Desert, College Red, College Blue, and College Yellow—all priced at £120, offering a variety of choices to fit every style.

The construction of Osier S-Strike showcases a three-part technical running sole that includes:
- A cushioned light EVA midsole for soft, lightweight cushioning.
- A durable rubber bottom sole tread for exceptional grip and longevity.
- A stabilizing TPU ‘S-Strike’ heel-clip that adds support and a distinctive visual flair.
These features combined create a runner that not only pays homage to its retro roots but also provides the performance and comfort expected from modern footwear.
The Ethos of Stepney Workers Club: Unity Through Sport
Founded in 2018 by Roger Pereira and Simon See, SWC is deeply rooted in the inclusive culture of traditional workers’ sports clubs.

SWC stands out by offering unisex footwear that transcends time and cultural shifts, appealing to a diverse range of subcultures and individuals.

Movement & the Collective Mind: A Campaign Celebrating Everyday Motion
With the launch of Osier S-Strike, SWC introduces its “Movement & the Collective Mind” campaign, showcasing how routine movements contribute to a collective consciousness and impact our mental well-being. Captured by photographer James Rees, the campaign highlights everyday scenes of London commuters and workers, illustrating the profound connection between individual actions and the larger community spirit.
The Osier S-Strike is more than just a shoe; it’s a statement about moving together in the same rhythm, sharing thoughts, and inspiring each other through the simplest acts of movement. It is designed for those who see movement not just as physical exercise, but as a way to connect with the world around them.
