Chelsea Boot - Black Calf

Variations of the Chelsea boot have been a staple worldwide for nearly two centuries. This slip-on pattern dates back to the early 1800s as a riding boot, which is how it originally earned the 'Paddock boot' name. Only in the mid-1900s, when the boot was popular in England, was it referred to as a Chelsea, a district in southwest London. This pattern carries over to multiple categories. It's easily dressed up or down, and in certain parts of the world, it's a preferred style for work boots, given the closed pattern and slip-on practicality.  The Grant Stone Chelsea is a combination of these categories. The goal was to find a balance between the Western and refined look. It will fit the bill as the work-horse boot or the daily commuter. Most importantly, we used strong, proven components to ensure longevity.
