Description

A monk strap shoe is a refined style defined by its buckle-and-strap closure, replacing traditional laces for a clean, distinctive look. The design typically features one strap (single monk) or two straps (double monk) that fasten across the instep, offering both elegance and ease.

With a low-cut profile, sleek leather upper, and almond or rounded toe, monk strap shoes sit between formal and smart-casual—more relaxed than oxfords, yet sharper than loafers. They’re most often crafted from smooth leather or suede, sometimes with subtle brogue detailing.
