I think double monks are definitely more "fashion-forward" (I know some don't like that term) than single monks but I think they are here to stay.

Yup, its still on their website too....including my new JL William in black buffalo. The double sole may take a few wearing to flex a little, which is one major reason i liked this over the AE Mora as I am in love with double sole shoes (esp if they are also double monks....double fun!). I like it very much and dont see this style going out anytime soon.

Regards.

No, it's still available. You can still get the Mora from the company website.

The ebay outlet price is better, although the website store offers a wider range of sizes

Not sure, definitely around that mark though. I can't remember whether they cost 1350 or 1150.
