I think @gdl203 and @TtownMD nail it. They're not exact replicas, but they're pretty damn close.

Not a plug as I have ZERO skin in the game, but Scarpe di Bianco makes a very similar double monk as well.

scarpe does make a decent shoe. the looks are nice, leather has variety, and they offer multiple types of construction styles.

My side swept monk with Goyser stitch in K last. Not as comfortable as i wished it had been after a day's walking and the leather creases a little more than desired.

I have a pair of suede oxfords on U last...after a year and a half of regular wear they've literally molded to my foot, so worry not!

When new they didn't fit all that great, and weren't at all comfortable due to the HAF sole flexing more at the taper than single thickness soles. Are yours HAF by chance?

The goyser on k last was inspired though, too good

How much would a pair of Voss oxfords cost? I'm looking at Voss since they seem suitable for a high instep, but I'm not sure if I can afford them. :/
