Chelsea Boot - Black Chromexcel

Variations of the Chelsea boot have been a staple worldwide for nearly two centuries. This slip-on pattern dates back to the early 1800s as a riding boot, which is how it originally earned the 'Paddock boot' name. Only in the mid-1900s, when the boot was popular in England, was it referred to as a Chelsea, a district in southwest London. This pattern carries over to multiple categories. It's easily dressed up or down, and in certain parts of the world, it's a preferred style for work boots, given the closed pattern and slip-on practicality. Chromexcel leather tanned by Horween in Chicago is incredibly resilient while offering unparalleled character. The hot-stuffed tannage's natural oils and waxes create an unmistakable pull-up effect and supple feel. The UK last fits half a size large and has a fuller fit throughout, similar to our Leo last.
