Nobody does browns like Lobb. If only their shape and fit were as good...
Just put in an order at Crockett and Jones for some white Chelsea boots for the summer.
Suede?
Interestingly Storm Troopers out of Star Wars wear patent white Chelsea boots.
Again- Nicholas' words;
Working out the pattern
I very quickly whipped together a crude mock upper to check the pattern over - it's more for my benefit than something I'd necessarily show a client and it doesn't really reflect the finished shoe accurately. As there's no lining, no insole and no stiffeners, the leather looks like it's pulled more and the lake tracing ends up wider than it should be amongst other details like that, but it can inform any adjustments I need to make. I thought you might appreciate seeing the lesser seen side of the process though, so here it is and you can begin to see the overall silhouette of the last once there's some leather on it.
