In the market for a double monk, to replace this (Gravati), which has been in regular service since 2005. I'm in the minority here, but does anyone have any suggestions for a toe-capless double monk? Does Carmina even make one?

crocket and jones seymour 2.

 

built to handgrade spec on 358 last .. fully lined, oak bark tanned sole, really soft calf leather upper.

 

ive had a pair since end of last year and i think they look even better with wear, the middle section of the vamp creases up and sits lower while the toe and the actual monk strap section stand up which makes them look v sleek.

I concur, the seymour 2 's look fab. must have been asleep at the wheel when these were in my size and listed here for $580 (back in 2010).
