Viberg's Chelsea Boot draws inspiration from a pull-on work boot of the 1970s. When the brand reintroduced this style in 2014, they updated the pattern to utilize a single-piece upper, presenting a clean, modern silhouette with no side seams. The sleek design of the Chelsea allows for versatility, suitable for both casual and formal settings. For this exquisite model, Viberg has partnered with Charles F. Stead tannery, using a waxy commander leather and Viberg's signature Channeled Insole Goodyear Welt Construction.
Waxy commander leather is a type of waxed suede that imparts a distinctly casual-workwear appearance to your shoes. It is waterproof, extremely resilient versatile, easy to wear & even easier to maintain.In the United Kingdom, there are now very few tanneries remaining, a stark contrast from the 300 that once existed, with only about 30 remaining today. Among these, Charles F. Stead in Leeds stands as one of the oldest and most renowned, producing top-quality suede since 1890. Waxy commander leather is among those leathers that age gracefully, developing a unique patina over time, enriched by the dyes and waxes naturally worked into the leather during wear. This leather also boasts excellent natural water-resistant properties.
All Viberg Service Boots are available in a single E width, and we recommend sizing down one full size from your standard US sneaker size or Brannock measurement. If you have wide feet, consider going down half a size. Viberg sizes fit more closely to uk rather than US sizing.
