What... a Brown Leather Monk Strap Shoe by Santoni.

Why... Because this suited and booted shoe staple is now part of the upper echelons of high fashion.

Time to get your nerd on. If you were watching the Spring/Summer '22 runways with as much anticipation as we were (ok, maybe not, but that's why we're here for you!) then you'll know that the penny loafer and monk strap shoe is the shoe for next season. Barefoot, or with socks and an evening dress à la Erdem, they provide comfort whilst giving a pinch of grounded nonchalance.



So as we enter a grey, rainy, leaves-blanketing-the-floor season, get in early on the comfort with a lug-soled monk strap shoe from Santoni. This Italian shoe brand is known for their hand-painted technique that gives an almost watercolour patina effect on their shoes that's painterly and deep. We love the thick soles combined with the elegant, Savile Row inspired straps to be paired with jeans, dresses, suits and... well, any outfit really!
