CB 01 Rugged Suede Cognac Mediterranean Suede
Frequently bought together.
A Chelsea boot has nowhere to hide. No laces, no hardware, so the silhouette carries it or it does not. In suede the slim last reads softer, and the welted commando sole underneath keeps it from tipping into dress boot. For weather you can see coming, and days that do not end where they started.

- Handmade in Portugal, in a family-run factory we have worked with for years. Designed in The Netherlands.
- Hand-lasted, then inspected twice before it leaves the factory.
- Between 20 and 40 separate components in every pair, put together by hand.
- A reinforced toe and heel counter inside the shoe, so it still holds its shape after a year of wearing.
- Welted construction: the sole is stitched to the upper along a strip of leather instead of glued to it. It is the slower way to build a shoe, and it holds together far longer than a bonded sole.
- Mediterranean suede, tanned at LWG certified tanneries in Italy and Spain. Soft from the first wear, and it takes the shape of your foot within a week.
- A removable memory foam insole that softens to the shape of your foot and holds it there.
- The insole lifts straight out, so you can put in a fresh one or wear your own orthotics.
- A reusable travel bag comes in the box, for wherever the shoes go next.
- The white box is the shipping box, so there is no second carton to throw away.

Handmade in Portugal.
Cut from premium nappa, full grain and suede, then built on the last by makers who do little else. It takes years to master a shoe. We're still finding ways to make it better.
One box. Nothing wasted.
Every pair ships in a crisp white box built to be the shipping box too — no second carton, nothing thrown away. Inside, a reusable ETQ travel bag for wherever they go next. A detail you notice after you buy, not just before.
Endless comfort.
A structured silhouette on the outside. Inside, a memory-foam insole with airflow channels that move moisture with every step. The kind of shoe you forget you're wearing — and keep on long after you meant to.

Made in Europe
Kings of detail we are.
At ETQ we focus on the things even the eye can’t see, to build better. All shoes are designed in Amsterdam and crafted in Portugal. The family-owned atelier works with traditional methods. Together we are masters of precision engineering.
When it comes to materials, our bar is high. No shortcuts. ETQs premium suedes and leathers are smooth like butter and cherry-picked per shoe. Obsessive, yes. But: soon after wearing ETQ you will notice the quality difference.
The full package
Unboxing like never before
Your fresh pair arrives in style. Your shoes come in two all-purpose zip bags made from recycled PET bottles. Use them to store your ETQs, toiletries, pencils, and more. Just like your shoes, these bags are crafted to last.
We've always been fascinated by packaging. We designed it with efficiency and with the environment in mind. The modular packaging consists of long-lasting items created with recycled materials, while the shipping box is repurposed to serve as a shoebox as well.
Endless comfort
Time suits them
Beyond trends and flashy labels. Our style never changes. It evolves. Continuously.
Confident and comfortable, ETQ introduces the etiquette of artisan shoe crafting to today’s sneaker world. We blend traditional cobbler skills with the latest technology for comfort and suppleness. Your feet feel it, every step of the way.
While traditional sneakers are meant for sports, ETQ footwear is made for the city. That is why we use a solid and heavy cupped sole made from reinforced rubber to last in all conditions. Fit so smooth that you’ll want to keep them on. And you can.
Product reviews (8)
Arrived used and damaged
Shoes sold as new arrived used and damaged. Customer service was slow and exhausting. Brand looks good but for me, a bad first experience.
Top quality
I’ve actually been wearing Chelsea boots for years, but so far these ones from ETQ are the best in terms of quality and design. I’m going to buy the brown pair too. Highly recommended!
Nice sturdy boots
fine shoe with a good rubber sole , top
Chelsea boots
I now have 4 pairs of Chelsea boots 2 suede and 2 leather Are really excellent Good fit and look great Can recommend them to anyone 👍
High quality but way to stiff in the back
I love the design and overall quality however the inner back of the shoe is super stiff so I always have pain wearing them
Poor service & shoe
The ETQ ankle boots arrived in poor condition. The damage is clearly due to a quality defect and not to use. This is absolutely disappointing for a product in this price range. Even more annoying was the way customer service dealt with the problem: Instead of acknowledging the obvious defect, I was blamed. Customer service was uncooperative and not very solution-oriented.
Good boots, fit very well
Very poor customer service! Order before Christmas, had wrong size sent, returned for exchange, parcel returned to sender and wasn’t given full instructions of how to return, was told correct ones would be sent out, when asking for tracking I get told no longer have the size I need and won’t be getting them again! Was then offered a voucher!!!!!

How to measure
Let’s find your perfect fit. Place a sheet of paper on the floor against the wall and put your feet (with socks) on it, heels against the wall. Make sure you lean on your feet with full power when measuring. Now you simply draw a line at the end of the biggest foot. Measure the distance with a ruler and find the size that matches it: see size table. Are you in between sizes? In that case, we suggest taking the bigger size.
Dressed Footwear — Size Guide
All measurements in centimetres.
Measure your foot length and compare it with the chart below. Between sizes? Choose the larger size.
| EU | US | UK | Foot length |
|---|---|---|---|
| 39 | 6 | 5 | 25.1 – 25.6 cm |
| 40 | 7 | 6 | 25.7 – 26.2 cm |
| 41 | 8 | 7 | 26.3 – 26.6 cm |
| 42 | 9 | 8 | 26.7 – 27.6 cm |
| 43 | 10 | 9 | 27.7 – 28.2 cm |
| 44 | 11 | 10 | 28.3 – 28.9 cm |
| 45 | 12 | 11 | 29.0 – 29.6 cm |
| 46 | 12 | 11 | 29.7 – 30.2 cm |
| 47 | 13 | 12 | 30.3 – 30.9 cm |
Foot length is the actual measured foot. The MC 01, DS 01, and CB 01 are built on a slightly longer last, so the shoe includes additional internal space for comfort, shape, and elegance.
How to measure
Place a sheet of paper on the floor against a wall. Stand on it with your socks on, heels touching the wall.
Draw a line at the end of your longest toe and measure the distance from the wall using a ruler.
Between sizes?
Choose the larger size. Feet naturally expand throughout the day, so measuring in the evening usually gives the most accurate result.
