Our No. 660 Chelsea Boot in cognac makes a fabulous addition to the stylish man’s wardrobe. The origin of these cognac-coloured leather shoes reaches back to King George IV, whose cobbler J. Sparkes Hall crafted this extraordinary boot in London. The effect then was polarising and even today Chelsea Boots remain a distinctive footwear choice. The typical elastic sidings may not normally be considered elegant, but the Beatles in particular showed just how stylish the Chelsea Boot could be, making it a signature item of their early wardrobe.
