Our new Italian Chelsea boot is made with the Bologna construction, which uses a soft leather sock instead of the normal 'stiff' insole board, resulting in a more comfortable flexible boot. The rich tan fine calf leather upper has a clean simple pattern formed of two panels of leather and a back pull tab. Layer upon layer of dye is applied by hand creating a real depth of colour, before antique polishing. The sturdy elastic panels are in a contrasting dark navy with a neatly piped topline. The upper is Blake stitched to a leather sole with a closed channel to conceal the stitch. We've tipped the leather stack heel with a rubber top-piece for extra practicality.
