One of the attractions that makes a fashion item a must-have is its versatility, and when it comes to footwear, it’s the Chelsea boots. From their Victorian roots, through its popularization by the Beatles and the Rolling Stones, along the outer-space fashionista armada of Stormtroopers from the movie first trilogy (IV to VI, not I to III), to the present day with Olivier Rousteing, Kanye West, Harry Styles, and Shawn Mendes, this quintessential laceless shoe item has endured the test of time and trends, laying its importance thanks to its timeless design with which they can be combined, being the common denominator in both a relaxed and formal look, from its suede version to its leather one.
