Chelsea Boots
This British classic, attributed to Queen Victoria’s shoemaker J. Sparkes-Hall more than a century and a half ago, is a piece that has gained enormous prominence in recent years.
With their elegant and minimalist design, Chelsea boots can be adapted to both casual and more formal styles. For a more relaxed style, we recommend the brown suede Chelsea ankle boots, which go perfectly with jeans, chinos and more relaxed styles. For the suit, black Chelsea boots (with a suit in any color) or brown leather Chelsea boots (especially with a blue suit), will be a sure hit.
It is convenient that the upper part of the boot is covered by the pants, since the design of this boot stylizes the outfit. It is a perfect garment combined with a short or medium coat or trench coat.
Low lace-up ankle boots
Lace-up ankle boots are one of the most versatile types of boots available. They are ankle-length, easy to wear and suit a variety of outfits, including more casual looks.
For more elegant styles, there is this classic English model, the black leather chukka boot. With a formal style, they are impeccable in any season. In addition, the design of its blade is especially wide, so the comfort of this model is assured.
On the other hand we have another style that has been a staple in the men’s closet for decades, thebrown suede desert boot . Created with a comfortable and lightweight design more than seventy years ago, it is a model that continues to give a lot of play. Much more casual, perfect with a wide color palette and combined with jeans or chinos, it can not be missing in any closet.
Combat Boots
These classic boots, inspired by military-style boots or mountaineering boots, add a different and slightly bolder touch to your style. They are perfect for a less formal touch and for the weekend. They are also suitable for more daring styles and designs. Combined with dark colors, strong materials and warm fabrics or directly with leather clothing, they are a success.
Brogue boots with laces

Dress impeccably, wearing the ankle warm and at the same time stylizes the whole style of the leg. And on the other hand, the versatility of this boot to dress more urban or casual, will make it one of the favorite garments of the modern gentleman’s closet.
