The Description

The Loake Cannon is a premium double buckle monk men’s shoe, crafted in smooth black calf leather for a refined and versatile appearance. Built on a classic English profile, it offers a sleek silhouette that provides both elegance and comfort, making it a stylish alternative to traditional lace-up shoes. Featuring Goodyear welted leather soles, Cannon delivers durability, longevity, and the option of resoling, ensuring it can be worn for years to come. Handmade in England, this monk shoe reflects Loake’s heritage of fine craftsmanship and timeless style. A sophisticated choice for both formal wear and smart-casual outfits.

We recommend using a shoehorn to help maintain the shape, prevent creasing of the heel, and allow the foot to glide in with ease – keeping your shoes looking their best and feeling comfortable from the first wear.

Please note, these shoes come with a complementary pair of protective cloth bags.

The Last

Capital

One of our most versatile shoe lasts, Capital is used across a wide range of our 1880 men’s shoes, from formal styles such as the ‘Aldwych’ toe-cap Oxford to refined boots including ‘Pimlico’. It features a medium width fitting with a subtle chisel toe shape, creating a sharp yet balanced silhouette. Designed to run true to size, Capital offers a dependable and comfortable fit. A longstanding customer favourite, nine distinctive styles are currently crafted on this popular last.

The Style

Monk Shoe

Featuring a technical design with no laces and secured by single or double straps, our Monk men’s shoes offer a sleek, contemporary alternative for smart dressing. Less formal than an Oxford but more refined than a Brogue, these shoes pair effortlessly with suit trousers while remaining versatile enough for a variety of occasions. Combining timeless style with Loake’s renowned craftsmanship, the Monk shoe provides a polished, sophisticated option for men seeking elegance, comfort, and adaptability in a modern wardrobe.
