How do they fit?

The shoes fit large to size due to an unlined nature, we recommend to size down half a size. We have both regular (D) and wide (EE) widths available.

As a lace up style, you can create a personalised fit.

As an unlined shoe they can require a longer break-in period, however, once broken in they will become extremely comfortable and conform to your foot's natural shape.

Description
Weston at Rose Anvil recommends sizing according The Brannock Device

10 brannock = 10UK
10 brannock = 11US

The sneaker built like a boot.

Back by popular demand, the SMUGS in Horween's Chromexcel leather. This design is handmade in England, featuring all of our signature touches including our resoleable blake stitch construction.

Horween’s Chromexcel leather is a combination tanned leather that undergoes at least 89 separate production processes and takes 28 working days to complete. The combination tanning process not only enhances durability but also gives it a rich, dynamic look. The pull-up quality allows it to develop a unique patina over time, making each piece distinct. This refined ruggedness adds to its charm, as the creases and marks tell the story of wear and use, creating a sneaker that only gets better with age.

See Weston at Rose Anvil talk about what makes the SMUGS so special.

The heritage of GORAL ensures that each pair of shoes and trainers uses premium materials.

Our traditional method of crafting footwear is the same as it was over 80 years ago. The last pair of hands which touches the footwear before the customer, is the craftsmen who made the footwear. Aside from being handcrafted, each item is quality checked by the GORAL craftsmen.

The craftsmanship is on a different level.

I have purchased high-end white sneakers in the past, and these shoes blow them out of the water. The craftsmanship is on a different level. This is my second pair of Goral shoes, and I will be buying more in the future.

What Makes SMUGS Stand Out?

Amazing quality as always.

Second pair. Super comfy and zero break in needed. Stay classy!

Gabriel G.

These shoes are impeccably made and it shows!

The whole process of ordering has been second to none and the care and attention to detail is unparalleled. All shoes should be made like this. The only problem is that I now want them in all colours!

Matthew P.

Amazing quality

Amazing quality, amazing customer service. I own several Goral shoes and I've never been dissatisfied with any of their products. Their customer service is also top notch.

Great sneakers

Would recommend to anyone who is looking for a quality high top sneaker.

Qillannguaq B.

Quality, quality product.

Saw this on the Rose Anvil YouTube channel. It took a while to be handmade to order, but good things come to those who wait. Not cheap but worth the money.

David O.

Amazing built quality and looks.

The Horween Natural is just beautiful. They are also very comfortorble right out of the box, they don't need any break in like some leather shoes.

Scott C.

The quality is terrific

My forth pair of Mellors. My first experience with the Nappa leather on a Goral shoe and the quality is terrific, another great leather! Craftsmanship and stitching are flawless and I always find these to be comfortable out of the box. Received a lot of compliments on this pair.

THE FOUR KEY STAGES OF SHOEMAKING CRAFTSMANSHIP

CLICKING

The clicking process is a crucial step in shoe manufacturing, where the individual leather pieces that make up the upper are cut into precise shapes before being assembled. This stage gets its name from the sound the machines make as they cut through the material.

CLOSING

The closing process in shoe manufacturing refers to the stage where the individual components of the shoe upper, such as the vamp, quarters, and tongue, are sewn or stitched together to form the complete upper structure of the shoe.

LASTING

The lasting process is a critical stage in shoe manufacturing, where the shoe's upper is molded into its final shape and attached to the sole. This process gives the shoe its structure, fit, and comfort, making it one of the most important steps in creating a well-constructed shoe.

FINALISING

The shoes undergo a thorough inspection and refinement before they are packaged and shipped to you. This process is critical for ensuring that each pair of shoes meets the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship.

85 days

They said shipping will happen in August. I realized after they’ve given me the run around that my order got bumped into the next pre-order. Currently they advertise 25-30 working days for these. Unfortunately we’re going on day 90. I had handmade Nicks get built, and delivered before these. I will not buy from a company who is more worried about marketing their next product before they start/finish their current products.

Love the color

Love the shoes

the perfect Sneaker

I can’t tell you how happy I am with my high top sneakers
I work in an environment where we all wear sneakers and frankly I do not feel smart in sneakers. These high top and clearly beautifully made shoes are just perfect
