"Wait a minute, these shoes are quite tight. Did I perhaps choose the wrong size?" - Let me assure you that this is by no means an accident.
Rather, it is a well-considered design concept for which you will no doubt be grateful. If the shoes fit in length and are only tight on the side, then they are just right. They are made of exquisite Italian soft leather, a material that - like an exquisite wine or a fine cheese - improves in quality over time. Our Kingsley Crew leather sneakers are fundamentally different from the mass-produced items you find in regular stores.
Kingsley Crew leather sneakers are perfect for the whole family
The Science of Leather: The Secret Behind the Perfect Shoe
Allow me to give you a fascinating insight into the world of leather. Soft leather is a truly remarkable material with an extraordinary ability to adapt and shape itself. Imagine having a personal bespoke shoemaker for your feet - that is exactly what our leather does.
Remarkable leather properties
- The soft leather adapts to your foot like a second skin, stretching precisely where your foot needs it.
- After just a few wears, you will notice how the shoes fit your feet as if they were tailor-made - an almost magical experience.
- Our sneakers go through a testing process that lasts several months. Yes, we are perfectionists and we stand by it.
- You may be surprised to learn that shoes that are too wide lose their optimal fit over time. Who wants to literally swim in their shoes?
You may be wondering why we take such meticulous care? Well, we believe that high-quality shoes are more than just accessories. They are your daily companions, your supporters with every step. And let's be honest: don't your feet deserve the very best?
A small insightful anecdote
Allow me to share a personal experience that illustrates the true potential of Lauren's shoes. It started as an ordinary experiment: my son was asked to put a pair of Kingsley Crew sneakers through their paces. As a father and entrepreneur, I was naturally extremely curious to see how the shoes would perform in the demanding everyday life of a child.
As is usual for parents, we took the test sneakers one size larger. My son, who is not usually very enthusiastic about shoes, wore them and because they were easy to put on and take off, they quickly became his shoes of choice when he needed to quickly get some out of the shoe cupboard.
He wore them every day. The days went by, weeks turned into months, and the shoes? They fitted perfectly. But the really amazing thing was that they grew with him. My son wore these shoes for almost a whole year! From size 28 to 32. It was as if we had discovered a magic that made shoes grow with him.
I watched these shoes go through adventures on the playground, trips to the park, and even the odd birthday party. They got dirty, got cleaned, and always looked pristine. Most importantly, they still fit perfectly.
As a father, I was impressed by the longevity. As an entrepreneur, I realized that we had created something truly extraordinary. Not just shoes, but small wonders for parents and children alike.
This experience confirmed to me that our vision of shoes that do more than just look good had become a reality. We had developed shoes that actually grow with the children, reduce the financial burden on parents and are still aesthetically pleasing and comfortable.
The fact that many parents repeatedly ordered the next size for their children made it clear to me: With Kingsley Crew, Laurens has designed more than just a shoe brand. We offer a solution to a challenge every parent faces.
The uniqueness of Kingsley Crew
You might be wondering: "That sounds very promising, but what exactly makes these shoes so special?" Allow me to explain the details:
- Handmade in Portugal: Yes, you heard right. Each pair is carefully crafted in small batches by skilled artisans.
- 100% Italian leather: We only use first-class leather from Italy. A quality that you can see, feel and smell.
- Orthopedically tested: Your feet will thank you. We have worked closely with experts to ensure that our shoes are not only aesthetically pleasing, but also provide optimal support for your foot health.

- Sustainable production: Because we care about the future of our children. We attach great importance to ensuring that our production is as environmentally friendly as possible.
But you know what? All these facts are just the tip of the iceberg. What really defines Kingsley Crew are the stories that each pair carries. A child's first steps, the first day of school, the first date - our shoes are silent witnesses and grow with you.
