Monk Facts

The Galway is an eight-eyelet derby boot with a straight toecap. With its combination of a mink suede shaft and a dark oak calf forefoot, it is a wonderfully refined boot. Despite its elegant appearance, the Galway features a double leather sole, making it extremely hard-wearing. This double sole is bevelled down at the waist so as to retain the fine silhouette that sets it apart. The Galway is crafted on Edward Green’s 82 last, designed by master shoemaker Tony Gaziano, and has a slim, tapered round toe. Its sculpted shape and outstanding finishing make the Galway perfect for even the most formal occasions. On the other hand they are an excellent match with cords or jeans. The open lacing of the boot also makes the Galway a good option for those with a high instep. Established in a small Northampton factory in 1890, Edward Green has gained a deserved reputation for ‘making the finest shoes in Englad for the discerning few’. Edward Green’s shoes are made with the finest calfskin to the highest standards of workmanship. Each pair takes several weeks to create and many master craftsmen are involved.
