My Made To Order Triple Monk Strap Shoes After A Few Years On....

Some of you who have been following this blog would remember me posting something about the shoe above. A made to order, feet measured in three places - rubber bits placed on the plastic last type to ensure the fit, half boot style nail pegs and glue triple monk strap shoe commissioned from a bootmaker in Campbell Complex, Jalan Dang Wangi, Kuala Lumpur.  Back then the colour wasn't as layered as this.

Made to order Triple monk straps

Ala Bontoni. Since I prefer buying shoes that I can see and Italy isn't on my 'to visit list' in the near, near future I decided to commission a triple monk strap shoe from the same people that I had a wholecut made sometime ago.

The leather as always is whatever they had. Good enough I say.

The shoes look decadent. Gold buckles add to the richness....and excessiveness. If you're ordering a pair of shoes it should be a bit mad. You only live once.
