Default London Underground shoes. Laziness on my part

Caught something on BBC1 this breakfast time about shoes made from
London Underground upholstery. Can't see anything on the web and
wondered if anyone could remember a name.
I don't feel inclined to mess about with IPlayer and watch the whole
tedious program, but that bit did catch my eye.

sick?
