Step into craftsmanship built to last. The Cicero Ave. Single Monk No. 5968 is made from dark brown Luxe calf leather, giving each pair a rich texture that only deepens with wear. Inside, a full brown calf leather lining keeps every step comfortable, molding to your foot over time rather than fighting against it.
The rounded-copper buckle closure gives you a secure, adjustable fit without the fuss of laces—slide them on, clasp the strap, and get where you’re going. It’s a small detail that makes a real difference when you’re moving between meetings or heading out for the evening.
Look down and you’ll notice the forest green hand-painted leather sole, paired with a durable rubber base. This isn’t just color for color’s sake. The hand-painting process means no two soles are perfectly identical, giving your shoes a quiet individuality most dress shoes don’t offer. The brown outsole and city welt construction add structure and durability, so the shoe holds its shape through daily wear.
Built on the 312 last, the Cicero Ave. features a rounded toe that nods to traditional English shoemaking. It’s a shape designed to look sharp without pinching, giving your foot room to move naturally while still presenting a polished silhouette.
Underneath it all, Blake stitch construction keeps the shoe slim and flexible. Unlike bulkier construction methods, Blake stitching sits closer to the foot, which means less break-in time and a more natural stride from the first wear.
Every pair is handcrafted in Spain, where skilled artisans bring decades of shoemaking tradition to each stitch and seam. That craftsmanship shows—not in flash, but in the fit, finish, and durability you feel with every step.
Whether you’re dressing for the boardroom or a night out, the Cicero Ave. Single Monk No. 5968 gives you a shoe that performs as well as it looks. It’s a dress shoe built for the long run, not just the first impression.
