Why did you choose this item?

Availability: Custom

I had an idea for a brogued monkey for a while, and once Frank's told me they would make me one using the original prototype pattern, I jumped on it. These turned out great, but there are a few changes I wanted, so I'll likely have a similar pair made in the future. Love these tho, tied for 1st with my other Frank's monkeys in my collection. That single piece backstay with brogued outline is amazing!

How did you determine your size?

Frank's Boots / 4811 Last: 8.5D

I'm constantly in some boot groups on Facebook, and comparing boot maker's notes on sizing. Kinda winged it on my fist pair and did led it in from there. Risky, but, it paid off.

What was the ordering process?

I actually got to talk to Frank's wife and Frank himself directly on this build. I felt very special. Lol. Love them.
