The Double Monk Shoe, a brief description
Featuring two straps coming across the upper, the double monk is the hottest shoe in men’s fashion right now. This shoe is perfect for anyone looking for a modern twist on a classic, elegant style.
Full Calf Lined Interior
These shoes are fully-lined with soft calfskin leather, which means ultimate comfort. Most companies will only partially line their shoes, but we go the extra mile because it means a more comfortable shoe and less break-in time.
Hand Painted Crust Leather
Crust calf is untreated –not dyed– leather. It's usually used in its plain form, but it can be embossed with textures like pebble grain, full grain or croco. This leather is hand painted by our maestro colorist using natural dyes and oils.
Being an artisanal process, it is difficult to achieve uniform shades, especially in the lighter ones, although its main attraction is precisely its natural finish and the light transparency in its colors, which gives great distinction and versatility.
The Seville Shoe Last
Used on some of our most refined hand finished shoes, the Seville shoe last is the result of many rounds of refinement to create the perfect men's formal last. Featuring a soft chisel toe and a long elegant vamp, this is a great go-to last for a classic suit shoe.
Blake Stitched By Hand
This style is constructed using the Blake method. It’s characterized by a double binding (blake and rapid, precisely): while the first attaches upper, lining and insole; the second one secures the insole and outside sole together. The shoes are therefore easy to resole, and have greater flexibility.
Meet the Classic Leather Sole
There are many reasons why leather has been used for centuries for soles: it's hardwearing, flexible, practical, long lasting and beautiful. It's usually considered the dressiest of all soles, gets that designation because it has the slimmest profile, so it looks best with your dress pants. It is painted by hand, and then brushed by our artisans for an impeccable finish.
