The Chelsea boot is a fashionable and versatile piece of footwear for men that lends itself well to a range of outfits. Not all men are blessed with a room full of clothes and accessories, so the necessity to be able to wear items more than once is crucial. To the extreme, this is a core practice for anyone looking to build a minimalist wardrobe<\/a>. But, in the simplest of terms, it just makes sense for us to spend our hard-earned cash on footwear that works well with different outfits. Which is the reason we love to wear Chelsea boots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you are looking for boots that aren't just billed for casual weekends and can be dressed up or down at a whim, then Chelsea boots have your back. To give yourself the greatest chance of wear, we recommend a black or dark brown version in leather. But, we also hold a suede version of the same colours in similar regard when it comes to sartorial versatility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you are new to the game, Chelsea boots are a stylish and unique piece of footwear constructed with an elastic or vulcanised rubber attachment at the sides. They come constructed without laces and can easily slide on and off your foot. They typically extend to the ankle and have a small tab at the back to make pulling them on easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The name \"Chelsea\" is rumoured to come from the Chelsea region of London where the style was trendy among men and women in the 50s and 60s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Despite the Chelsea boot being a mainstay of men's fashion for decades, it is still not fully embraced. We can only put this down to the lack of understanding when styling this type of footwear. With just a few pointers in the right direction, I'm sure more men will be confident enough to wear this boot style more often.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To make sure your Chelsea boots are working well within your outfit there are a few sartorial guidelines we recommend you follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Leather options are the most popular type of Chelsea boots available. They have a sophisticated, slim silhouette and work well with smart and casual attire. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Think of your leather Chelsea boots as you would any other dress shoe. Style your leather boots with formal trousers either as a part of a suit<\/a> or as a smart casual outfit. But, pay attention to the fit. The Chelsea boot looks its best when the trouser is not too loose. You want a slim silhouette from the trouser through the boot, with the trouser length sitting around two inches over the ankle of the boot.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat Are Chelsea Boots?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
