Monk Strap Shoes are among the oldest and most unique shoes in the Dress Shoes world. Let's discover the fascinating stories surrounding Monk Strap shoes with Pierre Cardin Paris Vietnam!
Originating not from royalty or the military; Monkstrap Shoes was born from Medieval Monasteries. Due to the practical necessity of labour and religious practice, the monks created leather shoes with metal buckets - endurance, discreet, and suitable for movement. This marked the precursor of Monkstrap Shoes.
By the 19th century, English handmade shoe brands were inspired by these monk shoes, creating Monks Strap with a sleek form adhering to Dress Shoes standards and featuring a metal buckle. They quickly conquer Gentlemen, including Prince Edward.

In the subsequent decades, Monkstrap Shoes continued to be endorsed by famous brands such as Yves Saint Laurent (YSL), Alexander McQueen, Al Bazar, … They are not asked about their fashionability; Monk Strap shoes officially entered the “Walk-in Closet '' of modern Gentlemen.
The subtle alternative of the shoe buckle and classic standard of form - It is a balance that Gentlemen look for, in any era. Besides, the inherent “difference" from its origin helps Monk Strap shoes less constraint in the dress code. They become representatives of the styles of the modern Gentlemen - refined when needed, yet unafraid of change and innovation.
Over time innovation, Monkstrap Shoes established two basic styles:
SINGLE MONK STRAP
A style with one metal buckle. It features a minimalist design, compact, and not overly prominent. Therefore, it suits Gentlemen who are elegant and appreciate subtlety.

DOUBLE MONK STRAP
This is the most popular type with two metal buckles, showcasing a bold and distinctive design. However, it can still be paired with suits and casual attire. With two buckles, Gentlemen can adjust for a better fit.

The choice between a Single Monk Strap and a Double Monkstrap depends on the individual preferences of the Gentleman. However, Double Monkstrap offers greater flexibility and is suitable for various styles. If there is hesitation about standing out, Gentlemen can choose subtle colors like brown and black or consider selecting appropriate buckle sizes.
