Continuity mistake: In the scene where Al Pacino and Keanu Reeves are on top of the office building, they walk to the right edge of the roof. When the camera changes from overview to close-up, they only need one or two steps to the edge, but they make at least six steps. (00:25:40)
The Devil's Advocate (1997)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Taylor Hackford
Starring: Keanu Reeves, Charlize Theron, Al Pacino, Jeffrey Jones, Craig T. Nelson
Al Pacino is Satan and Keanu Reeves is in fact one of Satan's many sons. Pacino reveals to Reeves that he needs Reeves to father the anti-christ. Reeve's wife committs suicide after she is raped by Pacino. Reeves voluntarily commits suicide at the end, greatly despairing his unholy father, but gets brought back to life at the decision he made near the beginning, giving him (but also Satan) a second chance.

Answer: The shoes showed him this man polishes them every day, also his clothes are custom made. That all means the look he has of a black thug is deceiving, instead he's a cautious, proud person they can't use in the jury. Just to add, Kevin knows all this because the devil (his father, spoiler alert) is giving him the talent to do it, not a logical explanation can be given why he dismisses these people.
