"Every great pair of shoes begins with the same idea — craftsmanship without compromise."

-Edward Harrington, Founder.

Crafted in Northamptonshire, Steeped in Tradition

The Epsom Chelsea Boot is built in small batches in Northamptonshire, England — the spiritual home of British shoemaking. Each pair is hand-lasted using full-grain leather that’s been vegetable-tanned for a natural, character-rich finish. With clean panel stitching, a cushioned insole, and a Blake-stitched sole for flexibility, the Epsom balances enduring structure with understated ease.

Why You’ll Reach for the Epsom, Again and Again

• Built for Effortless Dressing
  The Chelsea design’s elasticated sides and rear pull-tab mean you're out the door in seconds — no fiddling with laces, no compromise on looks. It’s the boot that fits your pace.

• Quiet Confidence in Every Step
  The rich tan hue pairs just as comfortably with a blazer as it does with raw denim. It’s a true chameleon — refined without being flashy, relaxed without ever seeming careless.

• Hardwearing Comfort, Season After Season
  The rubber sole offers surefooted grip, while the soft lining keeps things breathable and snug. Whether it’s an autumn stroll or a brisk commute, the Epsom is made to go the distance.

The Chelsea Boot — A British Icon

First introduced in the mid-1800s, the Chelsea boot was originally designed for Queen Victoria’s own walking needs. Today, its elastic gussets and close ankle fit make it a sleek, go-anywhere choice. Ours takes the classic silhouette and refines it with a subtly squared toe and higher cut — a nod to its heritage, with a Harrington twist.

Style It Your Way

Perfect with cuffed selvedge jeans and a chunky knit, or dressed up with tapered wool trousers and a mac. The warm tan finish lifts any outfit with just the right amount of polish.
