Making Britain's Fanciest Sneakers

Stridewise didn’t just review our product. He walked through our factory and spoke to our shoemakers. He saw the stitching, the leather, the lasts, and how much goes into making a sneaker that’s actually built to last.

Highlights from the video:

The Resoleable Blake Stitch Construction
Most sneakers are glued together and thrown away when they wear out.
Ours are Blake stitched, which means they’re fully resoleable — just like a proper dress shoe.

The Highest Quality Leathers (Like Horween Chromexcel)
We use full grain leathers from Horween, Charles F Stead, Maryam to name just a few.

Handmade in Sheffield, England
Every pair is made in our own workshop, where skilled craftspeople handle the cutting, lasting, stitching and finishing. It’s slower, but it means we get every detail right.

Shoe Widths 
One detail Nick was surprised by: we offer width options. It’s part of our commitment to proper shoemaking, not just one-size-fits-most. If you need a wide fit, we’ve got you covered.

A Sneaker Worth Talking About

The Stridewise video is the most in-depth look we’ve ever had into the GORAL process, and we’re proud of what it shows:
A British shoemaker doing things properly in a space that too often cuts corners. So yes, Stridewise calls them the world’s fanciest sneakers, but not because they’re fragile or exclusive. Because they’re beautifully made. Repairable. Comfortable. For Life.
