Bruton Single Monk Derbies by Crockett & Jones for The Anthology - Dark Brown Suede





Bruton Single Monk Derbies by Crockett & Jones for The Anthology - Dark Brown Suede
Named after Bruton, a charming town in the English countryside known for its country walks, contemporary galleries and cultured dining, this single monk Derby is designed to move effortlessly between rural and urban settings.
Crafted on the archival 317 last, the shoe features a split-toe design and a generous toe box, shaped into an almond profile with just a hint of a softly squared toe. This distinctive form balances timeless elegance with a subtle sense of character, avoiding the severity of more formal dress shoes. Material thoughtfully chosen in dark brown suede, the Bruton offers a relaxed yet considered expression of classic English shoemaking. Its versatile character makes it an easy companion to denim, chinos and tailored trousers, equally at home on a countryside walk, in a gallery or at a dressed-up dinner. Goodyear welted in Crockett’s iconic city sole. Box and individual shoe bags included.
Summary:
• UK sizing

How we style this

Born from a boat shoe, a silhouette we are all familiar with, yet also equipped with a mountaineering look and sensibility, this is a hybrid design that is built for everyday use with casual and sartorial wear. Distinguishably more elegant and well-crafted than the mass-produced boat shoe, we retain the soul of traditional English shoemaking excellence through the expertise of Crockett & Jones, resulting in this luxurious everyday moccasin. This pair is equipped with waxed shoelaces and metal eyelets.
On a 391 last, it features a short vamp, purposely designed for casual shoes only. Crafted in exquisitely textured black grain calf, the shoe expresses heavily on texture, adding a lot of visual character to the design and draws a significant distinction from general black calf shoes. To complement the casual profile of the design, the overall shoe is softly-lined, giving a more flexible toe box for better comfort.

Bodley is a half-strap penny loafer designed with clean, elegant lines, such as the refined butt-stitched apron and an oval cutout.
On a 376 last, it features a modestly short vamp which is casual enough to be paired with jeans, chinos and our Civilman trousers, yet dressy enough to be taken back to more formal settings when a suit is called for. Although based on an iconic C&J shoe last, the heel counter was also modified from its predecessor, the 314 last, to hug tighter around the back of the heel for a better fit, also to accentuate the divine lines of the shoe.
This design is done in an exclusive espresso burnished calf, with a single leather sole, Goodyear welted. Box and individual shoe bags included.

Bloomsbury is an absolute no-fuss, short-vamped tassel loafer. It is an ode to Bloomsbury Group's commitment to exploring new ways of thinking, like how a tassel loafer was born out of artistic curiosities.
On an archival 72 last, the shoe features a short vamp and a soft almond toe, modishly executed with wider joints to achieve a versatile look, also made more comfortable. The style opens doors to both casual and formal styling, instead of a typical long-vamp loafer where strictly formal dressing is preferred.
This design is done in dark brown suede, with single leather sole, Goodyear welted. Box and individual shoe bags included.
