What are monk straps?

A monk strap closes with a buckle instead of laces, a design usually traced back to the shoes monks wore in the Middle Ages. Ours come with one buckle or two, Goodyear welted by hand in Almansa, Spain, on a double-stacked leather sole – formal without being stiff. Learn more in our article The History of Monk Strap Shoes.
