While the first elastic-sided boots were developed as horseback riding footwear for Queen Victoria, the ultra-clean shape of this staple quickly made it a hit in more dressed-up, urban settings. Our design takes the sleekness a step further with polished calfskin uppers, handpicked to highlight the long, sculpted form of our 943B footwear last. Smart, sophisticated and timeless, this streamlined style adds a sharp, modern edge to everything from suits to denim.
