Monkey shoes

Monks are the epitome of modern classics. This model, which appeared in the 11th century, is a slip-on shoe, instead of it there are one or two fasteners.

This shoe got its name "monk" from the English "monk", which means a monk. And this is not surprising, because at that time such shoes were worn only by people of the upper class - the clergy.

The modern sophisticated silhouette and classic shape of these shoes attract the attention of a large number of buyers. Stylish monks can become a part of both business and everyday look.

Many buyers are wary of this model, believing that the lack of lacing negatively affects the convenience. However, straps and buckles are just decorative elements, their presence does not cause any discomfort when worn.

The lack of lacing can be attributed to the advantage of the shoes, because thanks to this, they are easy to put on, without spending time tying the laces.

There are two types of these shoes:

• single monk (single strap monk) - differ in one buckle and a strap that covers the tongue;
• double monk (double strap monk) - have a wider strap and two buckles.

Another difference of these shoes from other models is the elongated silhouette.

The main materials for making monks are natural leather and suede. The color scheme of the shoes under consideration is predominantly classic. This allows you to form a large number of images in different colors.

Monks can be plain or stitched. The design of the product is characterized by the presence of a low heel, which provides incredible wearing comfort.

Monks can be a great addition to a business-style set. For this purpose, shoes of classic colors without decorative elements are suitable.For a business style, it is better to choose a model with one buckle (single strap monk). Single monks are distinguished by restraint and severity, so they are the best addition to a business-style suit.

The casual style also allows you to wear monks. Wide suede shoes or models with colored soles go well with trousers. Casual suggests wearing double strap monk shoes, leaving them unbuttoned.

Men can wear these shoes with blazers, chinos or corduroy pants. The combination of these shoes with jeans is also allowed, however, stylists recommend carefully selecting models of denim trousers to form the correct image.

Women's models can be combined with skirts and dresses of various lengths. Wardrobe items of fitted silhouettes (jackets, turtlenecks, blouses) look great with monks.

Romantic style and boho style are able to form the maximum number of images in which monk shoes are present.

When composing images, it is worth remembering that monks themselves are a bright accent, so you should limit the presence of additional catchy accessories.
