Words

These shoes seem to have a bit of a fall feeling about them, but that doesn't mean they can't be purchased right now. Leffot just received two new chukka boots from Alden, but my pick is the brown chromexcel version with a plantation crepe sole. I already own this version in a blucher, and they're great. Tough, easy to wear, durable – I feel like the sole gives them a nice casual, rugged appeal. I'd personally be interested in seeing this chukka in a suede version with the same sole as well.

a long wing blucher like these would be amazing. unfortunately neither leffot, nor lsh, win perry, epaulet and the alikes have done it yet.

Loake make a brown suede chukka in their 1880 range (the Kempton). Made in England, fully lined, great fit and well priced too.
