The Chelsea is an iconic boot silhouette and has become a by-word for modern styling. This iteration is a 6" ankle boot inspired by a ‘70s archival style known as the 'Romeo'. Viberg have treated this boot to their re-developed modelling which delivers a clean lined, single piece upper. The leather - 'Rowdy’, is a combination chrome & vegetable tannage that uses dense cowhides that are fat liquored, mill dyed, and hand-waxed with an emulsified oil blend. This produces a remarkably durable and rare leather with extreme pull-up and patina qualities. Finished with 360 Storm welt construction.
Viberg boots are the end result of numerous hand-finished processes - from the tanning of the rare leathers to the free-hand trimming of the soles. They undergo strict quality inspections at Viberg's Victoria workshop and upon arrival here at Rivet & Hide. Any slight variations in colour and texture should therefore be considered a part of the boot’s unique character.
NB: The size you order will be the size stamped in the boots. Viberg fits more closely to UK rather than US sizing so please take this into account when making your choice. If you need any assistance with sizing, please reach out to us via email, we are always happy to help.
