John White Premium Snuff Suede Mens Chelsea Boots

Additional description

As part of the premium John White “Signature” collection, this handmade slip on Chelsea boot is exactly what your wardrobe needs this season. Available in rare snuff tobacco suede leather, it exudes style in its simplicity. It features a plain toe design and boasts squared off twin side elastic gussets in a slightly deeper shade of brown. The generous rear tab, also in a deeper brown, allows for the boot to be put on and taken off easily.

The brogue has a long history dating back to the Victorian era. J. Sparks-Hall, the shoemaker to Queen Victoria, is credited with designing the Chelsea boot, which he said the Queen wore every day. The boot was worn for both walking and horse-riding and now bears similarity to jodhpur boots worn by horse-riders today. Chelsea boots became fashionable in the UK in the 1950s and 60s when they were worn by The Beatles and the Rolling Stones.

This John White boot boasts a full leather lining and padded leather insole, ensuring optimum comfort on even the busiest of days. It is made on a durable, stitched rubber studded sole, proving that these boots are made to last. The heel is slightly elevated at 3cm tall, ensuring comfort and a little extra height during wear.

The beauty of this boot is that it complements any outfit in your existing wardrobe. Whether you choose to wear it with blue denim jeans or your favourite chinos, it can be paired with button down shirts, finely knitted jumpers and even a long sleeved waffle top. For breaks in the city or holidays beside the sea, weekends at home or away, once you own this boot you won’t want to wear anything else.
