Note From The Founder

The core idea behind the J.FitzPatrick line is to introduce subtle yet distinctive twists to classic designs, creating something truly unique. The Palacio perfectly embodies this philosophy.

At the time of its creation, the traditional Adelaide Oxford was very popular. Rather than simply replicating this style, I chose to extend the facing piece, which defines an Adelaide, all the way back to the heel counter, following the elegant curve of the topline.

the style:

Adelaide Oxford

The Palacio is a twist on the classic "adelaide" style, with the adelaide "facing" panel extending past its laces and coming to a close above the heel. The result is a slightly modernized, but still classically wearable cap toe oxford, ideal for business and formal settings.

what it's lasted on:

LPB Last

The LPB is our soft chisel last. It is a softened variant of the classic MGF chisel last, with the smoother lines of LPB offering a more conservative and versatile profile.
The LPB is a generous fitting last, making it a good choice for those with broad feet.
-Generous all-around fit
-Voluminous instep
-Labeled as UK 'E' width (US 'D' equivalent). However, being generous it is closer to a US D/E fit, falling between the two.
-Elongated last shape

what you'll be standing on:

Leather Sole (Closed Channel)

Single leather soles are our most handsome sole option. A subtle profile combines with tastefully pitched heels, beveled waists, and closed-channel stitching to ensure an elegant look, while seven brass nails in the toe improve longevity.

Size Guidance

The Palacio, on the LPB Last, is a generous and elongated fitting oxford. The instep is semi-high, so if you wear slender lasts, you will wish to size down. If you wear more generous fitting lasts, often found in Italian brands or on other chisel lasts, stick with your typical size. If you are a standard fit, it will be up to you to decide if you prefer a little more room or a snugger fit. If more room, stick to the same size, if more snug, size down.

Most people stick to their standard size.

Length: Elongated
Width: Generous
Instep: High
Toe Box: Voluminous
Last shape: Soft chisel

Finally Palacio!

Like every other model I have bought from this company - and I have bought a lot - the Palacio is excellent in quality and of course beautiful.
I had my eye on this shoe for a very long time. I can definitely see a significant difference in the quality of the leather. The creases on the Palacio are really very delicate and fine. Definitely a step up from the JF line. I know that it's always a matter of luck with the creases, but I was really lucky here. And as correctly stated in the description, the last is indeed very comfortable and larger in every respect in terms of roominess than the Rainer or the St. Helens last, for example. And the leather sole is simply wonderfully comfortable. All in all, it was the best Black Friday of my life. Many, many thanks Justin and Matthew.

Best shoes ever!

The attention to detail, mirror shine, toe taps, shoe trees and bag. Fantastic!
