Royale is made on a classic shaped Russian last. It has a somewhat square box internally and low profile. Externally the box is sleek and elegant. The pleatless platform gives a polished line to the toe box. The pre-arched construction of the shoe allows the shank to contour to the foot and minimizes break-in. Unique full leather sole with grooved stitching provides a flat, stable bottom. Fitting suggestion is American street minus two sizes.
