Carlos Santos 6307 Gareth Braga Monk Strap Shoes
€369.00
The Carlos Santos 6307 Gareth Braga monk strap shoes are handcrafted in Portugal from high-quality calf leather and finished in a hand-painted light brown patina with warm golden and orange undertones. The Braga color gives the leather a rich, sunlit appearance with natural tonal variation, while the clean plain-toe design keeps the silhouette refined. A single monk strap with a bold square buckle adds character without overwhelming the simple shape, making this pair a strong choice for smart casual outfits, lighter tailoring and warm-weather looks. Built using Goodyear-welted construction and finished with leather soles, the Gareth combines distinctive color with classic craftsmanship.

The style
Monk Strap Shoes
Developed by alpine monks in the 15th century, Monk Strap Shoes were a staple in European monasteries for centuries. They attained their present appearance in the early 20th century and gained popularity about 20 years ago. Modern and stylish, Monks are perfect for replacing your classic Derbies when you want to add a touch of accent to your ensemble.
The last
Carlos Santos 401
The 401 is the most popular shoe last from Carlos Santos, known for its wider width, elongated shape, and generous instep. It has a well-balanced, curved, and chiseled almond silhouette, that adds elegance to any shoe model. We recommend sizing down by half a size compared to your standard dress shoe size.
