Why name our best-selling sneaker "the Royale" Quite simply, it rules. A luxe, high-end sneaker fit for the king of any castle, every shoe is handmade in Italy by the world's most renowned craftsmen only using premium Italian materials like full grain leather (the only type that truly gets better with age). The inside is lined with the same supple leather, making socks optional. It's finished off with waxed cotton laces that will develop a unique patina of their own.
