Our Alki chelsea was designed with versatility in mind. Chelseas are often worn casually, and we're big fans of finishing off a pair of jeans with a fine boot--but we wanted to create achelsea that could also be dressed up. The slender almond-round last and trim silhouette of the Alki results in a refinedboot that can be effortlessly paired with dress trousers while remaining an easy choicefor your less formal days.
The Alki features a wholecut pattern,meaning that the entire boot isconstructed 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, and the resultingpattern, uninterrupted by side seams, makes for a boot just that much more handsome than your standard chelsea style.
If you've seen our Alki in the past, this new boot is on a completely different level. It nowenjoysa tastefully pitched heel, a longer beveled "waist," and tighter stitching density around the welt. At J.FitzPatrick we're all about the details, and even this seemingly simple chelsea boot is no exception: Note the "coke bottle" shaped elasticsides!
The dark brown marble patina boot seen here sits on a double leather sole, making for aneasy-wearing style. The marble patina finish shines through in bright, natural light, while remaining a versatile brown.
