01 The details
Weston at Rose Anvil recommends sizing according The Brannock Device
10 brannock = 10UK
10 brannock = 11US
The sneaker built like a boot.
Crafted from Horween Shell Cordovan, one of the world’s rarest and most celebrated leathers, the Shell Cordovan SMUGS redefine what a sneaker can be. Built in England using traditional shoemaking methods, each pair is a testament to craftsmanship, durability, and time-honoured materials.
This limited collaboration with Rose Anvil continues the SMUGS legacy, Sneakers Made Using Good Sht*, now elevated in a leather that has been tanned, glazed, and finished by hand over six months. The result is a sneaker that will outlast trends, evolve beautifully with age, and tell your story through every crease and shine.
Grounded by a sustainably sourced Lactae Hevea sole, the Shell Cordovan SMUGS deliver exceptional comfort with a natural rubber base that’s soft underfoot yet built to endure. Inside, a full-grain veg-tan calf lining and EVA foam insock provide long-lasting structure and support.

02 The fit
The shoes fit true to size but if you are between sizing we recommend sizing up.
As a lace up style, you can create a personalised fit.
As all shoes use premium leather they will require a break-in period, however, once broken in they will become extremely comfortable.

WE DONT JUST RESOLE, WE REBUILD+
When you buy GORALs, you buy them for life. Every pair is built with premium leather components that can be restored, renewed, and rebuilt, so they only get better with age. When the sole wears down, Rebuild+ brings them back better than new, with all the patina and character intact.
5 REASONS TO REBUILD+ YOUR GORAL SHOES
Purpose
A pair of GORAL shoes isn't a purchase you make twice. Resoling extends the life of something you've already invested in, protecting that investment rather than starting again from scratch.
Comfort
A shoe that's been worn in is a shoe that fits, as the leather has moulded to your foot. Resoling means keeping all of that comfort rather than breaking in something new.
Patina
Every scuff, crease and mark on your leather is a record of where you've been. Resoling preserves all of that character while giving the shoe a fresh foundation.
Purpose
Every GORAL is designed from the ground up to be resoled. The Blake stitch construction, the leather components, the felt filler, every decision made during construction had the resole in mind.
Quality
The leather, the construction, the components, none of that wears out the way a sole does. Resoling replaces the one part that's designed to take the impact, while everything that makes the shoe worth keeping stays exactly as it is.
