Our notes
Chelsea Boots by Will's Vegan Shoes. No laces, no fastening — just two elastic gussets set into the sides and a loop at the heel to pull them on. The cut of the upper closes in around the ankle and the gussets hold it there, so the boot stays put on the foot while going on and off in a second.
The upper is our signature Italian bio-based vegan leather, cut clean and unbroken from the toe back to the heel. A low sheen picks out the curve over the toe and the leather settles into soft creases across the vamp as you wear it in. The toe is almond-shaped and the 2.5cm heel is squared off and slim — the whole silhouette runs long and low. In black, dark brown, or dark brown vegan suede.
Classic Will's handwriting, with the attention to detail carried right through. The gusset panels are stitched in with a neat curved seam that follows the line of the ankle. A ribbed woven loop sits at the back of the collar. A fine stitch line traces the sole edge, and the heel is finished a shade lighter, lifting against the upper.
In black, this is the most versatile boot in the wardrobe. Slim or straight-leg dark denim with the hem just skimming the top of the boot, a white tee and a leather jacket, and you have the look it's been known for since the sixties. Take it up with a slim navy or charcoal suit, worn with a shirt or a roll-neck, and it stands in for an oxford — more modern for it. Dark brown is the warmer, easier one: mid-wash denim, a knit in stone or ecru, an overshirt. Or navy and olive chinos with an oxford shirt for smart casual — dinner, a Friday in the office, and a matching brown belt to finish. The dark brown suede brings texture into it. Wear it with grey flannel trousers and a fine-gauge crew neck, or with corduroys and a chore coat at the weekend.
The TR outsole and its light tread take it over city pavements, gravel drives and park paths, and it's water-resistant through rain, puddles and wet streets.
- Upper
- Italian bio-based vegan leather (62–66% plant-origin materials) and Italian vegan suede (100% PU)
- Lining
- Portuguese vegan suede (100% PU) – soft and comfortable against the foot, with a breathable suede texture that helps keep feet fresh
- Insole
- Cushioned layered insole – a soft memory foam top layer over a recycled PU base (20% recycled PU) cut to fit the shoe
- Outsole
- Flexible TR outsole with a light tread for grip
- Shank
- Steel shank for stability and support through the arch
- Construction
- Mounted (cemented) construction – the upper is lasted to shape and the outsole bonded directly underneath. The most widely used construction method in footwear, it gives a clean, flexible build, though the outsole isn't easily resoled
- Water Resistance
- Vegan Leather – Water-resistant for everyday wear – keeps you dry in rain, puddles, wet streets, and most winter conditions. Just avoid heavy saturation or full submersion. | Vegan Suede – Not water-resistant – vegan suede will soak through in rain, though it won't mark or spoil when wet. Best kept for dry days, and treat with a waterproofing spray if you want some protection.

Love them, been walking in them for a month now. Took them to London, Manchester, Glasgow, Rome, Amsterdam and Paris. One issue… there isn’t any treading so I was slipping and sliding all over the snow. Otherwise great and very durable.
Sehr gutes Tragegefühl. Die Schuhe erfüllen alle Erwartungen und sehen außerdem auch super toll aus. Top Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis.
I bought these in September 2023. They were fine initially before the sole started to come off in the first few months of wearing them, which I thought was disappointing. And especially when I only use them to go to the office which is five minutes walk away from me.
Then I used the glue to make it work, as I didn't have a lot of time for the whole return process. I don't know if it would have been covered or not, but now it has started to come off again. It's been a year and a half since I bought them.
I have other pairs from Will's Vegan; however, this one is not what you'd expect from them.

I bought these boots in the fall and I've worn them most days since. After a week of breaking in, they were quite comfortable. The design is sleek and they can easily be dressed up or down. They don't feel cheap the way so many vegan leather boots do. The one issue I've had is that as fall turned to winter, I started to realize that they have very little grip on compacted snow or ice, which is everywhere where I live. Other than that, no complaints!
