Step In The Right Direction – The Stylish Gentleman’s Footwear Checklist


Monk Strap

monkThese are similar to loafers. They typically have a leather strap or buckle and a wider heel which gives them a slightly more casual look than loafers. They could be worn on a night out or to work with a suit.

  • Although the double monk strap stands as the standard, preferred option; the monk is also available as a single or triple strap – the choice is yours
  • With its apparent masculine aesthetic on full display, the monk strap is fine for pairing with your conventional worsted wool or woolen trouser
  • And unsurprisingly, the monk strap can be beautifully matched with clean, crisp denim
  • They may have straps, but monks may arrive with a cap toe (as pictured to the right), a wingtip, or a myriad of brogue detailing
