FAQ

What shoe sizes are listed on your site (US, UK, EU)?

All shoe sizes listed are according to the manufacturer. Crockett & Jones, Edward Green and John Lobb are entirely made in England and therefore the listed size is UK. Alden and Quoddy are entirely made in America and therefore the listed size is US.

HOW DO I PURCHASE STUFF ON THIS SITE?

To exercise your purchasing power, navigate the website and click on the item(s) you wish to purchase, select your size and colour from the menus on the product page where applicable, then click the "ADD TO CART" icon on the screen. This will add the item to your shopping bag, which is a list of items you intend to purchase all together. You may always view the items you have added into your shopping bag at any time during your perusal of our online store. When you have added all your desired purchases to your shopping bag, click the "CHECKOUT" button or the "Shopping Bag" icon at the top right corner of your page.

Why should I invest in Goodyear welted shoes?

If you are, like us, interested in getting the most bang for your buck, you buy goodyear welted shoes. They are harder wearing, longer-lasting and better looking. The benefit of having goodyear welted shoes lies in the ability to have them resoled, multiple times. So look at the cost per wear after you wore yours for 15 years and try telling us you should've bought something cheaper.

What payment types do you accept?

What can you offer? We accept all major payment methods including Visa, MasterCard, American Express, PayPal, Google Pay, Apple Pay, Shop Pay, Afterpay and maybe even a bank transfer. If you can't find your preferred method here, like Diners Club Carte Blanche, feel free to reach out to us at info@doublemonk.com. We might be able to help you or not, but we will only know, if you ask.

What currency do you use?

A tax invoice will be sent to you by email as soon as your order is received. In addition, a shipment confirmation will be emailed to you once your order has been shipped.

I HAVE JUST RECEIVED MY ITEM, HOWEVER THE FIT IS NOT WHAT I DESIRED. IS IT POSSIBLE FOR ME TO EXCHANGE/RETURN IT?

It is possible. Please see our Returns Policy here.

MY SHOES HAVE ARRIVED, NOW HOW DO I TAKE CARE OF THEM?

First of all, congratulations, you put your money in the right place. If you also invested in a set of shoe trees you made another wise decision. You also want to get a brush with natural bristles from pig or horse hair. Keep your shoes clean and moisturised with some Renovateur and a coloured creme. Get a wax polish to protect the leather and shine'em up. All shoe care items are available on this website and are made in France by Saphir. C'est ça.

I REALLY LIKE SOMETHING YOU APPARENTLY SELL BUT YOUR SITE SAYS IT IS SOLD OUT IN MY SIZE. IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO?

PRE-ORDER PRODUCTS AREN'T IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE, SO WHEN WILL I RECEIVE MY GOODS?

I'VE ALREADY PLACED MY ORDER. CAN I STILL CHANGE THE SIZE/COLOUR THAT I ORDER?
