Monk Facts
The Malvern is a slim, classic single monk. Originating in the abbeys of Europe as a hard-wearing alternative to the more traditional sandal, the monkstrap shoe has steadily gained in popularity in recent decades. The single buckle provides a simple and elegant substitute for the laces of an oxford or derby, giving the shoe a unique look. In terms of formality, the Malvern straddles the line between an oxford and a derby; it gives an inevitable touch of class to any casual outfit and, worn with a suit, gives a sense of stylish nonchalance. Crafted on the 341 last, it has a slim round toe that perfectly suits the single buckle style. Founded in Northampton in 1879, Crockett & Jones a fifth generation family-owned company. Representing the finest in materials and workmanship, Crockett & Jones’ Goodyear welted shoes are 100% made in England.FEATURES & CARE
