How these brown double monk strap shoes fit

The toe is a refined dress shape. A monk strap fastens with a buckle, which gives a small amount of adjustment over the instep: more than a loafer, less than laces. When the shoe is new the strap should fasten on a middle hole, so you have room to tighten it as the leather settles. If it only closes on the last hole, you need a wider width. Order your usual US dress shoe size, which is often different from your sneaker size. We make men's brown double monk strap shoes in every size from 6 to 15 including half sizes, so size 13, 14 and 15 are made like any other size.

The four widths are D (standard), E (wide), EE (extra wide) and EEE. A high instep is the usual reason a monk strap feels tight, and the fix is a wider width, not a longer shoe, because extra length makes the heel slip. The shoe should hold your heel firmly with the buckle fastened. Try them with the dress socks you plan to wear.

A brown double monk, burnished by hand

The double monk is built for the space between a lace-up Oxford and a loafer. Two straps and two buckles hold the shoe firmly across the instep, and a clean cap-toe line gives the front enough structure to stay a dress shoe. On this pair the brown aniline leather is burnished by hand, darker at the toe, along the edges and at the heel. The burnishing is done on the finished shoe, so it follows its real shape. The two buckles are plain metal, and the straps are cut and shaped so they cross the instep in parallel. Under the upper is a leather sole, and inside is a goat or calf leather lining. The darker tone at the toe is not paint; it is worked into the aniline leather by hand until it blends into the lighter brown behind it.

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.
