Cheap, Cheerful Chelsea Boots

What is beloved in bootwearing is a balance of style and substance and the chelsea boot is the epitomy of this. Lets say we're going to a dancehall night and we're looking to have a drink with the latest date and chat over a few drinks and maybe show her how well you can move to My Boy Lollipop. Some might stick to their Dr Martens and some to their trainers but some of us like to add a little style to the occasion. And that doesn't need to cost with these:

Grafters Chelsea Dealer Boots

Retailing at around £30 these simple, sturdy numbers would be decent anywhere around town and will certainly last. A comfortable number right out of the box these don't require any wearing in and don't shout too loud. All they're concerned with is keeping your feet comfortable and the Air Sole makes sure of that:
Normally the kind of grip you would see on a pair of Dr Martens Chelseas but there is all the quality and at a fraction of the price. Random Factoid: Star Wars Stormtroopers wore chelsea boots stained white in the 1977 film.

  9. They don't look too appealing to me, but if Chelsea boots are this common (well, as common as stormtroopers can be) then I probably should check a pair out!

  34. A classic chelsea is always a terrific Winter shoe. The best ones have leather soles, though, that makes them a bit unpractical.

  35. I would make a few alterations to this boot before wearing it, but I suppose it wouldn't be a Chelsea boot after all that.
