Been looking for a shoe looking like cut from a marble with monolithic look, JAK royal hit the nail. Looks extremely chic and fashionable. Though 2 improvement points to the team: Wider footbox and less weight pls.
Still unbeatable!!
These shoes can be dressed up or down. They are perfect for work or just hanging out. They go with everything. The quality is outstanding!
A couple of weeks ago, I bought my first pair of JAK sneakers, and it was love at first sight from day one. Last week, I ordered a second pair, and I’ll probably be getting a third one soon.
For the purpose I bought them for—a business-casual look—they are absolutely perfect. They’re comfortable enough to wear all day, have a removable insole that allows me to use my orthopedic insoles, and provide plenty of room for my toes and looks stunning.
What more could I ask for?
It’s my second pair, the first one I bought 5 years ago and they’re actually still good.
It takes a little to soften the leather but then they become gloves!
I've purchased many premium sneakers over the years, and I can honestly say that JAK makes some of the best-quality sneakers I've ever owned. The craftsmanship, leather quality, and overall finish are truly impressive.
However, I decided to test two different sizes (42 and 43) because I was unsure about the fit. Unfortunately, size 42 feels too tight and becomes uncomfortable for all-day wear, while size 43 feels too loose and lacks the secure fit I was hoping for. It seems that the shape of the last is simply not ideal for my feet.
That's a real shame because everything else about these sneakers is outstanding. The quality exceeded my expectations, and I would highly recommend them to anyone whose foot shape matches the fit better than mine.
Pure premium, comfortable and very soft inside and fits well all types of clothes that I have.
Definitely I'm looking forward to buying another pair 😎
Hi!sixt pair purchased since 2020 when bought first my JAK pair and was very impressed how good quality is and value!since than price gone almost half price for minor design changes of same shoes basically which sadly.And sizing is a bit change since first my pair 39 2020 compared last year purchased same size which a bit for some reason bigger about 2-3 mm insole exactly same size but the shoe itself!Quality itself 10 out 10!Will buy another pair in future for my collection!
The sneakers look great and feel good overall, but they’re too stiff for my taste and a bit tight in the toe area.
Ordered a size up from my last pair of Jak’s, so that I could use the insole provided. Very comfy, and cool sneaker/shoe.
I loved the boxing and love the product too, special thanks for the cleaning included
These are really great looking minimalist sneakers that can be dress up for smart outfits or dressed down for office casual. The materials are truly premium with vegetable tanned uppers and lasting board. The cushioning is also quite good also.
There are a few negatives I have to mention though. First as they are premium leather they are quite stiff and require a break in period. This is fine but the back of the shoes were too high and uncomfortable for me and cause inflammation around my Achilles tendons. Suggest a slight redesign would solve this or maybe I need a longer break in (I used them for a whole week walking 5-10km a day so they are stiff when new).
Second issue I would mention is a warning they are summer/dry weather shoes only. The veg tanned leather doesn’t like any bit of wetness so if you get caught by surprise by the rain it can lead to some unpleasant results. They are still good but think a basic water protection would be a good idea (most UK made sneakers like this do have some water resistance built in).
Overall I am pleased with them and will no doubt wear them for a long time. I like the design and materials and the company was great with queries and deliveries also.
Great shoes for warmer weather. Light enough and breathable to feel very good in summer time. I like the design and also and the materials that look and feel premium. I also like the idea of having vegan and environmental friendly materials that do not compromise the functionality or quality of the shoe. The lining is very soft and comfortable for example and feels just as good as natural leather lining.. My only suggestions/minus would be to change the tongue stitch design which dug into my foot while breaking in the shoes and also the slippy insoles which have cause blisters. But overall they are very nice sneakers and some of my favourites now.
