Monk straps, being more casual than shoes with laces, would normally be an odd match for the relative formality of a double-breasted suit. The fact that this suit is made of gray flannel, a more rustic choice than a smooth worsted fabric, makes this pairing just doable.

I really like your combination of grey flannel and brown monk straps. Especially with brownish accessoires like your tie and pocket square. Well put together!
