OKAY /FA/

ANYTHING CHELSEA BOOT RELATED GOES HERE

So I bought some super cheap shitty asos chelseas just to see wether I liked/suited the style or not, and now that I think I do, I'm prepared to drop a large amount of money on a really good pair of chelsea boots

I've been looking at slp (obviously) specifically the harness boots in tan suede or just the normal chelseas in black leather, also quite interested in black leather mmm side zips

any more recommendations? obviously doesn't have to be super expensive just as long as the quality and silhouette is good

Yeah, Guidi's have a much chunkier and raw look to them, I mean when you look at them it's much more obvious that they're made of animal skins. That does look great in some settings but they're hardly interchangeable with regular chelsea boots without overhauling the rest of the outfit.

I honestly don't understand Chelseas at all. I know in theory they aren't pleb but just the shape--how they slope down and round out just seems so feminine to me.

if you want the big ugly old-style australian work-type chelseas try oliver rather than blundstone. blunnies fall apart and most other brands produce boots that are a bit too modern/practical.

>> No.10050561

got some from lanvin on the cheap. no ugly gy welting, all black, just slick. Lobb is probably better if you want to go the extra mile though. SLP has really good last but the materials are meh. Or you could just go get some made from the jews on seville row.

what do you gahs think of beaten chelseas, i have a pair with pretty worn out leather, i changed the sole and heel twice, i do love the fit and the whole structure is slim and comfortable at the same time, the thing is the leather, its wrinky and it got lighter in the toe, posting pics tomorrow if needed

i wan the leather to look coarser and more worn out, but keeping the sole and heel clean

Front tab makes putting them on way more practical, I don't see why most other Chelsea's don't have them.
