Our notes

We love the silhouette of these Goodyear Welt construction Chelsea Boots. The gussets have been cut to follow the sweeping lines of the heel and vamp, which taper to a stylish point. You can order your usual size; your toes sit before the point, so they have wriggle room.

These are not a pair of boots just for fashion.

Built to last years, they will keep carrying on and on with the replaceable Goodyear Welt solid rubber deep tread outsoles.

A pair of Goodyear Welted boots can take up to eight weeks to make, using up to 75 boot parts and over 200 different operations to create.

The origins of this method go back over three hundred years.

The method is generally regarded throughout the worldwide boot-making industry as the best way to make superior boots.

As you wear these boots, their fit and comfort will just get better as their components mould to your foot's shape.

Goodyear Welted footwear can be resoled by stitching the new sole to the welt extending the life of the footwear.

  • Cut with Italian 69% bio-based vegan leather. You can polish the uppers to keep them looking new and bring out a shine.
  • The boot opening comfortably hugs the ankle thanks to how the uppers have been cut and the elasticated gussets producing a clean line with no gap.
  • Solid rubber deep-tread Goodyear Welt outsoles with recycled content. Easily replaceable by good cobblers. 3cm heel height.
  • Large WVS embroidered recycled polyester pull tab to help pull them on.
  • Fully lined with tan vegan suede for comfort, air circulation and breathability.

Great boots - takes time to break in

As a Vegan that doesn't want to own any animal based clothing I've been buying from Will's for many years. Always Chelsea boots but this is the first time I went for the Goodyear Welt.
As with all of the boots it takes around 5 times of walking around with them for a few hours till you feel the boot is taking the shape of the foot and then suddenly it becomes comfortable and reliable to walk with all day.
This might make people give up early and send the product back. So what I've found is that you have to persevere with them and have a few awkward days till they are finally comfortable.
I'm really happy with them, the look, shape and sturdiness of the boot. I hope to use them for a few years at least before I need to come back and buy a new pair.

Good boot but different from the picture

This is my second pair of Welt boots, I own a black and a suede. I love both pairs. Very well made, no obvious signs of wear. I wear them in the Hong Kong summer and Alaskan winters and they are super in both extremes.
My only gripe is they are a different design than advertised. Only slightly, but for an expensive shoe, you expect to get what is shown on the website.

Rugged but classy

Fit the bill for me. Was searching for a vegan chelsea boot that looked good, but that I didn’t feel like I had to take off to walk the dog.
