- 6619 TAN
The Sigotto Uomo 6619 in tan is a men's double buckle shoe in soft tan leather with an open woven upper, made for warm weather. It has a round toe, a leather lining, a cushioned insole and a lightweight build, and it is handcrafted in Istanbul, Turkey. It runs true to size in a standard width and comes in US sizes 8 through 13.
Craftsmanship
Sigotto Uomo handcrafts its whole collection in Istanbul. The 6619 is cut from soft leather in a warm tan, and the open weave across the upper lets air move freely through the shoe, which matters most on a hot day. Two buckled straps close across the vamp instead of laces. They give the woven upper a defined shape and keep the shoe looking finished rather than purely casual. Inside, a leather lining and a cushioned insole keep it comfortable through long days on your feet, and the lightweight build moves easily with the foot during travel and errands. As with all natural leather, small variations in grain and tone are part of the material's character.
Heritage
The monk strap takes its name from the buckled shoes once worn by European monks. Over time it became a staple of tailored menswear, and the double monk, with two straps instead of one, is the version most associated with continental style. Woven leather has a separate history in Mediterranean shoemaking, valued for its texture and its breathability in warm weather. The 6619 brings the two together: the structure of a double monk with the ease of a woven upper.
Styling
Tan is the most relaxed color in the 6619 range and the one best suited to summer. Wear it with linen trousers or rolled denim and an open-collar shirt for an easy warm-weather look. With light chinos and a polo, it holds up in smart-casual settings without feeling heavy. It pairs well with white, cream, olive, light blue and navy, and looks best with no-show socks or bare ankles.

How should I care for tan woven leather?
Wipe it with a soft, dry cloth and keep water and harsh cleaners out of the weave. Condition it now and then with a neutral cream made for light leathers, and test it on a hidden spot first, since conditioners can darken tan leather.
