How these single monk strap shoes fit

The toe is an almond shape with a refined taper. 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 single 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 single monk in burgundy croc-embossed leather

Two strong ideas meet on this shoe: a single monk strap and a high-relief croc-embossed upper. To keep them in balance the structure is strict, with one buckle and a stitched apron front. Large and small scales are placed across the apron, the quarters and the strap, so the pattern changes as it moves around the shoe, and the left and right shoes are cut to match. The buckle is a single plain metal one, and the strap is cut from the same embossed leather so the pattern carries across it without a break. The stitched apron gives the toe a frame, and the burgundy is deep and even, with the embossing adding highlights and shadows.

Burgundy croc-embossed leather · Single monk strap · Apron front

The toe is an almond shape with a refined taper, and the sole and lining are leather. The pair is hand-welted with closed-channel stitching, so the sole edge is clean, and it can be resoled. The pattern is embossed leather, not crocodile skin. Men's single monk strap shoes in burgundy go with navy, charcoal and grey suits and are a good choice for weddings and evenings. It suits anyone searching for burgundy monk strap shoes, oxblood single monks, croc-embossed monk strap shoes or buckle dress shoes for a wedding. These are handmade single monk strap shoes, made to order in your size and width.

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.
