A rounded toe keeps the forepart balanced

The rounded forepart gives the toes a more forgiving front shape without making the shoe look bulky. It keeps the silhouette relaxed and balanced rather than long or sharply tapered.

Because this double monk mule is made to order, choose your normal US dress-shoe size and the offered D, E, EE or EEE width. If you are between sizes or regularly experience heel slip or forefoot pressure, use the Fit Guide before production.

Why this navy double monk mule exists

Traditional double monks are built around a closed quarter and two functional straps. This design keeps the visual rhythm of those paired buckles but removes the heel counter, turning the familiar monk front into a lighter backless shoe.

Twin buckles · Navy leather · Apron front · Rounded toe

The navy finish is dark enough to work with tailoring but softer than black, while the rounded forepart keeps the two-buckle front from becoming too severe. The result is a mule with recognizable dress-shoe hardware and a more relaxed warm-weather construction.

How do I care for these? +

Remove loose dust with a soft brush or clean cloth. Follow the care instructions for the specific leather and finish; suede, patent, patina and two-tone uppers may need different products. Test any suitable cleaner, cream or conditioner on an inconspicuous area first, and use separate clean applicators on contrasting colours. Condition only when the leather and finish need it, rather than on a fixed schedule. Let damp shoes dry naturally away from direct heat. Contact Handsole before attempting recolouring or using a treatment whose compatibility is uncertain.
