I have a bit of a thing about brogues and my current pair of Dune's have served me well but are starting to look a bit tired.

I came across JR shoes whilst searching online and I'm not sure if they have any stores or retailers that sell their shoes, hence my question...

Anyone have real life experience please? An honest review would be useful, thanks smile

I bought a pair of these https://justinreess.co.uk/collections/mens-smart-s... to wear at a couple of weddings, and they certainly got noticed. They were very comfortable to wear, usually with such smart shoes I find that they will quickly start to dig into my heels or ankles but these didn't. Having only worn them twice I can't say what they're going to be like for longevity but they seem well made enough.

I bought them from Stag London which has shops in Harrow, St. Albans, Hatfield and Hemel Hempstead if you're near any of those.

I do rather like those….

I am quite partial to a pair of barkers myself.

I have four or five pairs ..they always have a stand at Goodwood.
My oldest pair are probably over ten years old now. Blue soled brogues which always get comments. I don't wear them too often but they are all well made and comfortable
They do have a store, it's in Camden
