To everyone who left us such great constructive criticism in the comments of this video (😉) we hear you loud and clear, the pitched sole is pretty divisive and definitely isn't for everyone... so we took a step back, looked at the feedback and launched The Mellor II, exact same construction as seen in this video, including the blake stitch and leather insoles, just with a few tweaks to the aesthetics.
So good to see a company interacting with the community to achieve harmony. Im excited to visit Goral's website as I was bout to get a pair of Common Projects or Koio. Wish me luck!
Your videos have been a big inspiration for me and also have been a big help recently with my grandfather passing away and it helps keep my mind of things thank you for making amazing videos.
Moral of the story. Stop buying common projects and explore one of the other fantastic alternatives Rose Anvil has showcased. Thanks for doing this project! Look forward to the Moc Toes
I'm fine even with the weird yellow heel part but the sole really makes these look orthopedic. BTW happy birthday mate, nice to see you're excited over the mocktoe series.
I purchased one pair of "Goral Mellow II"-calfskin white with your 20% coupon. This is the first time I spent this amount of money for a sneaker. Thank you for your Video!!!
I'm surprised that Greats Royale didn't get a breakdown video. I have a leather, a knit, and a canvas version of their Royale and love all three. The leather pair is particularly nice in my opinion
Same, it they flatten the soles and maybe made their logo on the back monotone it would be better. That heel bump is making it seem like some formal shoes than a sneaker
Happy Birthday, Weston! Carry on and don’t worry about your age. Live fully everyday and keep making your dreams come together with your skills! May you achieve all of your goals for the next year!
Crown Northampton also makes a resolable sneaker which is made in the UK, I’m kind of curious at what type of stitching method they use and how it compares to Blake stitches and Goodyear welts
I've had many other brands of leather sneakers, and just purchased the Goral - The Boulsover - Bonaventura Odyssey Brown Sneakers as this video and Sam Binstead's video confirmed quality of these leather shoes/sneakers.
The updated version of these, The Mellor II has the updated looks that everyone is looking for in a minimalist sneaker. Amazing construction and I think the new version looks better than the somewhat bulbus Crown Northhamptons that are also amazing construction. I don't know why there are not more reviews on the updated version of these sneakers.
Exactly my thoughts, was going to pull the trigger on some Crowns, but i hesitated because i did not like how bulky they looked compared to Common Projects or my now deceased Uniform Standards, after seeing the Mellor II i am sold.
These look like what you get when a Northanmpton shoe cobbler tries to make a trainer/sneaker. Clunky but well constructed. They almost look 'corrective'. Edit.. its purely that sole.
Those shoe cutting clips are so ASMR-ish I kinda wish you would put up like an hour long video compilation of you just cutting different shoes without background music
Happy birthday mate🎂 Nah..... May be good quality but those soles are wierd looking, and for that price I would stick to the Artisan Lab Essential White for £125. Looking forward to the Moctober👌
You didn’t say what the one brand you have left is. Now you’ve done Goral I think it’s even more important that you do Crown Northampton by way of comparison. Crowns are also supposed to be repairable. Their shoes are also cheaper than Goral, even with Horween Chromexel leather (not available in white though). I hope you’ll find time to examine them in future. Oh, and many happy returns, as we say in England.
Try the J.M. Weston Sneaker on Time, J.M. Weston is known for making really high quality shoes and they own their own leather tannery so they get the first picking for their shoes. I'm interested to see if their practices extend to their sneaker line.
Great stuff as always. This has quickly become one of my favourite channels Can I suggest you do a tear-down of a pair of GREATS' Royales and also a coach wallet for your wallet series? I see some strange terms like "sport calf leather" on the Coach site and it sounded like a big red flag.
You should do a comparison video on Nordstrom Rack Versions of flagship shoes. For example, the Clarks Bushacre vs Clark Desert Boots. Or the Frye Murray Chukkas vs the Frye Paul Chukkas.
Happy Birthday Weston! As for the shoe, maybe when I'm in my 80's and have bad eye site, the yellow will help me find them and the ortho look will fit my age. Sorry Goral, the design is just off but, excellent craftsmanship. Thanks
Love your videos dude. Would you please consider cutting a pair of New Rock boots in half? It would be so interesting to see beatle crushers in 2 parts.
I really enjoy your contents. Would be great if you could please cut Santoni Sneakers as well. Would love to see how they compare to Crown Northam sneakers. Thank you
I would love to see COS white sneakers (thick sole) cut in half. They are affordable and their stuff is generally good quality for the price so I’ce always wondered how good the sneakers actually are
Happy Birthday! Do you think you'll do a follow up to the Archibald sneaker that is supposed to be veg tan? Also, FEIT's are super nice and veg tanned.
Not shoes, but with the surge of roller skating making a comeback with quarantine I’d like to see you cut up the most popular roller skate boots to compare!
Please review Velasca's white sneaker. The model is called Beleratt and it's 185 euros right now. I already own a pair that I'm really happy with. And I'd like to know how they compare with other sneakers before I buy a second pair.

Rose Anvil could you possibly review this new design? It looks incredible and retains the excellent build quality.

I love it when companies listen! You have made me a fan Goral.
I liked the sole :(
pls don't flash the logo in visible areas. so tacky. i don't want to be a walking advertisement.
Happy Birthday, Weston!!! 🎂
Thursday boots just released a white sneaker, might not be the end just yet.
Happy Birthday!
@@xenonram my b team.
Yea he just said that

That's exactly it: orthopedic!
I dont at all dislike their sole, actually I like the sole of these more than the common projects.
The new version looks better!
Can’t believe you’re working on your birthday. Take some time off, you deserve it! Thank you for all the awesome videos, Happy Birthday! 🎂
I took a look at their website and found a pair I loved. I will be getting myself a pair very soon! Big Thanks Rose Anvil!
I'm so excited for Moctober. Not sold on the look of these shoes though.
Hahahaha... Me too
They do have a cupsole model that looks a lot more normal
Unfortunately ruined by the yellow heel tab and ugly sole. They look like orthopedics shoes.
lol
So fucking true.. they just had to be different :/ ...
Agreed, their silhouette and branding look awful
I actually prefer the look of these shoes to the other plain white sneakers.
🤣🤣🤣

If the heel and outsole didn't look so weird (bad), maybe they'd be considered the best. They don't fit the white minimalist sneaker vibe.
Crown are probably the best white sneakers.
Yeah not feeling these at all. What id be curious to know is how the new Thursday’s sneakers quality is like
@@4M4D3USM0Z4RT Just bought the French navy kudu suede with white sole - waiting for them to come so badddd
@@abcthecamper1799 They look amazing, good choice
Same, it they flatten the soles and maybe made their logo on the back monotone it would be better. That heel bump is making it seem like some formal shoes than a sneaker
The construction on these looks amazing. I just wish they didn't look like shit.
100%, feels bad man
They have an updated version "the Mellor II" that looks much better.
Happy Birthday, Weston! Carry on and don’t worry about your age. Live fully everyday and keep making your dreams come together with your skills! May you achieve all of your goals for the next year!
Happy birthday man! What you're doing is amazing and really entertaining, keep it up!

I just bought a pair of the Mellor II today . Great price they are doing 15% off (saw advert and link on Facebook) can't wait until they come .
It would be very interesting to see a video on dress shoes, and learn how to identify good quality in these types of shoes.

Grandpa shoes!
Imagine doing everything correct to a sneaker then banging that fugly heel/sole on it. Jesus....
Happy birthday Weston! The 30s are a great time of life. Enjoy it!
Happy Birthday Weston, hope you had a wonderful day. God Bless you and wishing you luck for the great content you have.

Maybe I'm the only one, but I'm kinda over the white sneaker thing. Bring on Moctober!

Crown looks so bulky and ugly.
Belated Happy Birthday, Weston! Be safe and well! keep it up! 🥳

Happy bday champ was mine on the 21st but I’m 44 sheesh!!!
Can’t wait for moc series
Thursday boots just realeza they’re version of a white sneaker and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
Great stuff as always. This has quickly become one of my favourite channels
Can I suggest you do a tear-down of a pair of GREATS' Royales and also a coach wallet for your wallet series? I see some strange terms like "sport calf leather" on the Coach site and it sounded like a big red flag.
What a great shoe, had never heard of this brand before! Also, so stoked for Moc-tober!!!
I still take Koio over these. Their style is nicer and I like the price. It’s the perfect Italian modern sneaker
I’d never heard of them before. They’re made only about 20 miles away from me in Sheffield.
Happy bday!!!! I love watching all of your videos and watching you grow!!!! You are definitely one of my fav youtuber!!!!
Happy birthday man! Thursday Boot Company just introduced there white sneaker and I would love to see a cut in half video of that please.
Happy birthday! Really enjoyed your work! Thanks again
Happy Birthday & always stay healthy. Still waiting for my SMUGS to be ready.
What about Timberland vs Panama Jack and Colonel Tapiocca?
Crown from Northampton... send to this man! Your stuff is great.
@Chelle The abington looks much better than common projects imo
Looks like I got my wish.
The one time yellow worked on shoes is when they added the yellow stitching on Doc Martens...
You should do a comparison video on Nordstrom Rack Versions of flagship shoes. For example, the Clarks Bushacre vs Clark Desert Boots. Or the Frye Murray Chukkas vs the Frye Paul Chukkas.
Happy birthday Rose Anvil
Happy Birthday Weston! I hope the next teardown is on Crown Northampton. I would hate to ruin my pair just to know how well it's constructed.
Happy Birthday! Bring on Moctober!
Happy birthday Holmes!
Happy Birthday Man!
Happy birthday Wes! A fellow Virgo, good to see. Mine’s on Tuesday!
HAPPY Birthday Wes!!!
Happy Birthday Weston! As for the shoe, maybe when I'm in my 80's and have bad eye site, the yellow will help me find them and the ortho look will fit my age. Sorry Goral, the design is just off but, excellent craftsmanship. Thanks
Love your videos dude. Would you please consider cutting a pair of New Rock boots in half? It would be so interesting to see beatle crushers in 2 parts.
I would love to see a comparisson like this but with Dr. Martens original and Dr. Martens Dupes!
Happy Belated Birthday, Weston!
Im not sold on the yellow but i will check if they have more colors
Happy birthday!! Looking forward to the moctober & graphics

I really enjoy your contents. Would be great if you could please cut Santoni Sneakers as well. Would love to see how they compare to Crown Northam sneakers. Thank you
Any plan on checking out their newer version?
THE MELLOR II - CALFSKIN WHITE?

Happy birthday! Thirty is a good time.

So how do Goral and Crown Northampton compare..?
Looks great without its sole
Rolled edges 😍
Happy Birthday!! Dirty Thirty!
I’d be very curious to see Alexander McQueen platform sneakers cut open to prove they’re not worth their price tag. Happy Birthday :)
Not shoes, but with the surge of roller skating making a comeback with quarantine I’d like to see you cut up the most popular roller skate boots to compare!
That's such an amazing job
