How these double monk 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 double monk 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 double monk in grey croc-embossed leather

On this pair texture takes the place of the usual decoration. The upper is croc-embossed leather, a pattern pressed into leather and not crocodile skin, so the repeating grain becomes the feature. Two straps and two buckles give it structure. Embossed leather is firmer than plain leather, so shaping the strap panel to lie flat over the instep takes more work at the lasting stage. The pattern is pressed into the leather under heat, and the scales are positioned so they run evenly across the toe, the quarters and both straps. Two metal buckles close the shoe. Grey is finished in a single even tone here, which lets the texture provide all the variation.

Grey croc-embossed leather · Double monk strap · Two buckles

The toe is a refined dress shape and the sole and lining are leather. The pair is hand-welted with the welt stitching visible along the sole edge and can be resoled. Grey is the alternative when black feels too formal and brown too warm. These men's double monk shoes work with charcoal, navy and black tailoring, and the texture makes them a strong evening shoe. It suits anyone searching for grey monk strap shoes, double monk strap dress shoes, croc-embossed dress shoes or textured monk straps for evening wear. These are handmade double monk 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.
