The Chelsea Boot (Men)

Extremely happy with this purchase. These boots are very well built and still look new after 2 months of near daily wear. Genuine Goodyear welt construction, but surprisingly quick break in, and the whole cut upper adds a bit of refinement. Very sleek shape and lots of definition in the last. Comfortable enough for all day wear. I struggled a bit with the sizing. I wear a 9.5-10 for sneakers and a size 9/42.5 for most dress shoes and boots. I ended up going down to a 42 for a snug fit on the suede version of these Chelsea’s, but ended up settling on my usual 42.5 when I bought a second pair in brown calf. As far as build quality, I would put them in a similar league as Myrqvist and nicer Maganni’s, but not quite at the level of Santoni.
