Crafted from full-grained leather with a soft leather lining, our classic Chelsea boot is a true wardrobe essential. Not much has changed in its silhouette over the years, but we always find ways to finetune the design further. It’s what we like to call our same-but-better philosophy. The slim and narrow last upper stands on a rubber welted outsole with a commando profile.

Full Grain

Full grain is the top layer of the hide, left intact. Nothing is sanded or buffed away, so the natural grain and the strongest fibres of the leather stay exactly where they are. That makes it the most durable leather finish there is. Our full grain is tanned by Curtumes Iberia in Alcanena, Portugal, an LWG Gold certified tannery, and every hide is inspected on finish, colour, surface and thickness before cutting. Small variations in grain and colour are natural, and proof the surface is untouched. It starts firm, softens with wear, and builds a patina that deepens over the years.

Care
Brush off dust and wipe with a slightly damp cloth. Condition a few times a year. Naturally more water-resistant than other finishes, but let wet shoes dry naturally, away from heat.

ETQ Chelsea boots sit close to the foot. The elastic side panels mean the height of your instep matters more than width. Between two sizes? Size up.

Standard width. If you have a high instep, or dress shoes often feel tight across the top of your foot, go up a full size. The close fit around the ankle is intentional and holds the boot in place without laces.

The first few wears feel firm. The leather softens within the first week and any pressure across the instep eases.

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.
