Monk FactsA classic round-toed penny loafer, the Boston is a great year-round shoe. Worn without socks, it is the perfect summer shoe; yet its generous shape makes it equally comfortable worn with woolen socks when winter comes around. The characteristic slit strap design originated in the 1930s as a stylistic twist on the standard loafer; many people would store a penny in the slit incase they needed to make an emergency phone call. The Boston is crafted on Crockett & Jones’ 314 last, which is their classic rounded loafer design. The rounded toe lends the shoe exceptional fitting qualities, making it a wonderful day-to-day option. Founded in Northampton in 1879, Crockett & Jones a fifth generation family-owned company. Representing the finest in materials and workmanship, Crockett & Jones’ Goodyear welted shoes are 100% made in England.
