I love the style of the shoes I bought by JAK! Actually, the only other good alternative with a painted sole is 300dollars more expensive or non existent. I live in Switzerland and I am ready to buy my 3rd different colour in this range of shoes by JAK. Beautiful colours, thankfully many colours to choose from, very carefully selected colours and the differentiation is the full painted sole!!! Rare to find (although some cheaper brands are entering this style recently). ALso they look like the leather can last for years and I love the fact that JAK employes craftsmen and women from Portugal to produce handmade shoes. Great investment in their local people. My only negative comment is that JAK has not found a way to also make their shoes comfortable like for example Geox or others. Competition will catch up soon, JAK do something :) Again, very nice shoes, looks good with a suit or sports clothes!

My second pair of Royals, one of more comfortable shoes I own + the design is nicely minimalistic and works with everything. Highly recommended. Pro tip - if you go for suede ones, spray with water and dirt repellent before use.

First time buy to try cork-lined sole sneakers add to quality.
High quality, minimalist-looking leather. Starts to crease a little near toes.
Fits true to size and comfortable out of the box.
Inner fully lined and high quality leather soles. Also came with high quality spare leather soles. Other lux brands I own give functional lower quality spares.
Inner lace holes are lined with metal eyelets. Lux brands skip this attention to detail.
Inner heel is lined with suede to add to comfort. Notice the heel bump is at bottom of heel instead of top. One small suggestion to invert the bump to improve heel hold. Then would be perfect snug fit with comfortable heel hug.
Charge v reasonable for shipment.

Surprisingly hassle free quick delivery and shoes really good quality Royal vino

It is my 3rd Royal.
All is good.
The color, the material, the quality of the shoes.
Also the box contents (spare laces, spare sole to adjust the half size, the shoe bag) is a very good idea.
Delivery is fast.
Thanks.
