The Chelsea boot is steeped in both fashion and practicality. Originating in the mid-19th century in England, the first Chelsea boot was explicitly made for Queen Victoria. Her personal bootmaker, Joseph Sparkes Hall, created the first Chelsea boot – originally called Elastic Ankle Boots – in 1851 as a riding boot for the Queen. Yet, it took over a century for the Chelsea boot to arrive in the States. Becoming particularly fashionable during the swinging '60s in London, specifically in the Chelsea district of London, the Beatles brought their regal boots to the American masses.
The Josephine Chelsea boot – named after its inventor – remains essentially the same as it did for the Queen. Featuring elastic side panels and a sleek, ankle-high design, the Josephine Chelsea boot is perfect for those on the run, offering both style and convenience. A truly timeless, elegant, and versatile boot you will want to wear every day, whether you're strolling down city streets or striding into work.

Made with
Goodyear-welt Construction
Renowned for its durability and ability to be resoled repeatedly, Goodyear-welt construction involves stitching a welt—a strip of leather or rubber—around the shoe's perimeter, creating a cavity. After filling the cavity with the shank and cork, the sole is attached, providing strength and water resistance. This construction method results in shoes that are not only long-lasting but also easily repairable, making them a timeless investment in quality craftsmanship.
