Rediscovering the Chelsea Boot

Like all good things in life, the Chelsea Boot in classic black, availabe now at A. Cheng for $115, only gets better with age. Made by MaraisUSA, it is the perfect transition footwear from summer to fall, and even into the winter.

Originally created for horseback riding, then developed into an all-purpose bootie for on-the-go, Victorian era women, and coming back en vogue during the 1960’s, the Chelsea Boot has been reinvented continuously to fit the times.

Today, the Chelsea Boot caters to an epoch where we cannot compromise function for style (or visa versa). The Chelsea is an elegant, ankle boot that can easily be dressed up or down. Stop into A.Cheng to try on a pair!
