    I have a pair of C&J Harrogate in cordovan, I'm biased but I think they are the best looking double monk shoes anywhere.

      Yes, that is a beautiful pair, I do like the round more classic last that it has. As a daily wearer, that would be my pick too. The Lowndes is a bit more formal, hence it my choice for wedding shoe. Wear them in good health!

    double monks definitely had their peak about 10 years ago in the old #menswear days of Tumblr. I have a couple of pairs myself, I think I'll break them out more often. Usually I'll leave the top buckle undone for a little sprezzaturra

      Man #menswear days! What a time to be alive that was. I think you should definitely break them out! And yeah man, top buckle undone all the way

    Nice I’ve got the grain city sole brown version and have found it very comfortable!

      Glad you like them! I've not tried the City sole, how does it compare to a leather or Danite?

    Very nice video. Thanks for the detailed review. Love the double monks and the single monk straps as well!

      @@jessupsays You’re welcome! Monk Straps are for men of timeless style. Not fashion. Fashions come and go. Style is perpetual.
      Keep up the good work!

    I just got mine the other day from double monk! I love them but I wish they were still only 795 lol

      Awesome! Wear them in good health! AHhh! Are they what $995 now? A bit harder to swallow.

      @@jessupsays yeah 895 now but I’ve come from “an affordable generic Australian brand” and it’s definitely still worth it my eyes. My old man’s had his pair for yonks so they last

      Sounds like a great brand 😂 but yeah you're not wrong at all. I've never regretted it for a moment. Only enjoyed it

    Excellent video, well-researched! With all due respect, the wrinkled shirt is a bad distractor, but the base-ball cap is awful, an eye-sore, I am sure Crockett & Jones would agree with me!! Keep the good work!!

    • @jessupsays
      @jessupsays  2 года назад

      Fair enough! Sadly this was at a time where getting a haircut wasn't a possibility in my local area. Which has thankfully changed. Hopefully no more caps :)

    Very nice shoes,im looking at buying a pair of CJ double monk Lowndes, whats the sizing like, are they similar to RM Williams size?

    • @jessupsays
      @jessupsays  2 года назад

      Thank you! I agree, they're lovely. I got the same size (6.5UK) in both RM Craftsman and these Lowndes. Let me know if you get a pair!

      Hahaha fair enough. I don't always enjoy an ironed shirt, its not always practical, or the right choice for the outfit. But fair enough.

    Would love to see a in depth comparison to Edward Green. For RTW those seem to be the only ones that best C&J in quality from all the british shoemakers.

      Okay, what elements do you want me to discuss specifically? I dont have EG Loafers, but I can do some comparisons for sure. Let me know what you're curious to know and I'll write something up!
