- Sorry I have been away so long! I will do my best to get back into weekly uploads. I have a ton of content that I just need to edit and post.
I couldn't be more impressed with this small shoe shop out of Vietnam. Highly refined last shape with Goodyear welted construction and a closed channel soft fiddleback sole. High stitch density on the welt and uppers with hand finishing. Hand dyed patina on full grain crust leather from Tannerie Annonay. All for around $250! You simply can't find more for the money anywhere else. Priced like Meermin with details matching $400 brands.
Definitely an emerging brand you should keep an eye on and I would highly recommend you explore.
They fit true to size. I ordered half size small (I often have to size down half in UK brands) but unfortunately these were too snug. Luckily I traded them to a fellow shoe lover and ordered another pair in my true UK size and they are perfect. Stay tuned for a second unboxing of the new pair...Monkstraps this time.
Give Elegal a follow on their social media! And if you want to see some of these shoes in action check me out at MBShoedoc on Instagram.

Love the last, patina, and finishing details
I agree completely...and for a fantastic price point too 💪
Been eying this brand for a while too. Might take a shot on a pair of lazyman austerity wingtips.
Definitely worth giving them a try 👍
They are a great pair of shoes. I own them now.
So glad they worked for you 👍
I'm eyeing a pair of Justin Fitzgerald cap oxford but I will take your word on this cobbler and explore.
J. Fitz makes great shoes but Elegal is still worth checking out.
How did they fit ?
I would say the fit true to size. I ordered them UK 7 since I need to size down in most brands but for these my true 7.5 size fits better. I sold these to a friend and got a pair of Monkstraps instead now.
Does he have a website?
I don't think he does yet. I would search for him on Facebook and Instagram.
I connected with him and ordered a pair.
@@nadimgeloo4034 Awesome 👍. Was the unboxing where you first discovered the brand?
@@mbshoedocyes, I learned of him from your review!
Iam from India can you help sir 🙏 I got old johnston and murphy shoes pls revert 😢 it will be really helpful
I don't understand the question...revert? Sounds like you are looking for a restoration on them? Yes I can do that but if you are still in India the shipping back and forth would be more than the value of the shoes and not worth it. If you are in the US I'm happy to help. If you are out of the country it would be best to find someone local to help. Let me know if that answers your question.
Oh wow.... I thought blkbrd shoemaker from India a good deal but daaang....
And Blkbrd is still a great deal but Elegal certainly gives them some competition. I will be reviewing a Blkbrd shoe as well to compare and see who the true value winner is.
