Cowes Bleached Calfskin Monk Strap

A unique aesthetic defines these formal double buckle shoes crafted from hand-bleached calfskin, that creates subtle shading on the upper, enhancing the intensity of the colour. An inherently British and dandy charm permeates the buckled Monk Strap style, initially inspired by the shoes worn by the monks during their daily duties but soon evolved towards a modern design. Suiting retro inspired ensembles and avant-garde looks alike, the style makes for a perfect combination of tradition and eclecticism. Made in Northampton, England, using the Goodyear method.
