Monk Strap

No laces, one or two buckles, and a great deal of quiet confidence. The monk strap takes its name from European monastic footwear and sits between the Oxford and the loafer in formality — more assertive than a lace-up, more serious than a slip-on. The double monk in particular has become the shoe men reach for when they want to be noticed without saying anything. Our straps are cut from a single piece of full-grain leather with solid brass hardware, and the shoe is welted so it can be resoled for years rather than seasons.
