The Description
The Loake Double Buckle Monk is a premium men’s shoe, handmade in England from dark brown burnished calf leather for a sophisticated and versatile finish. This timeless style features a refined twin-buckle design, offering a sleek alternative to traditional lace-up shoes, making it suitable for both formal occasions and smart-casual wear. Built with Goodyear welted construction, it ensures durability, comfort, and the option of resoling for years of use. Designed and engineered in Northamptonshire, it reflects Loake’s heritage of fine British shoemaking. A modern classic, the Double Buckle Monk combines elegance, craftsmanship, and lasting quality in one iconic style.
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.
The Collection
