Wholecut Chelsea Boots

A wholecut chelsea means that the entire boot is constructed from a single piece of leather. This is is a challenging and costly--and therefore very rare--method of construction. It ensures the highest level of comfort and quality. The resulting pattern, uninterrupted by side seams, makes for a boot just that much more handsome than your standard chelsea style.

what it's lasted on:

NGT Last

The NGT is our smart-round last. Its slender silhouette and elongated toe box result in a classic, elegant style.
The NGT is one of our more refined fitting lasts, and is, therefore, more suited for narrow to medium-width feet:

-Narrower/shallower forefoot
-Less voluminous (but not “low”) instep
-Hugging arch area
-Elongated shape
-Not good for wide feet
-Fits more generously on boots than on shoes

what you'll be standing on:

Leather Sole (Closed Channel)

Double leather soles give this style a robust look and feel, while remaining supremely comfortable. Tastefully pitched heels, beveled waists, and closed-channel stitching all ensure an elegant look, while seven brass nails in the toe improve longevity.

size guidance

The Alki on the NGT last is a form-fitting Chelsea boot. It has a slender feel with an elongated last that should grip you in all of the right places. Most people stick with the normal size, but if you find yourself on the wide side, you might desire a half size up. Bear in mind, a wholecut Chelsea boot forms quickly to your feet and gives where snug.

Please note that on a boot with no laces, it is normal to feel heel movement, even with a perfect fit.
