The Chelsea boot: a true classic. Once you've slipped them on, you'll love them - not only because of their characteristic look, but also because they are so comfortable to wear. This Chelsea is made at Grand Step Shoes from beautifully grained, vegetable-tanned cowhide. The lining and insole are also made from vegetable-tanned cowhide, which makes the shoe breathable and climate-friendly. The characteristic rubber inserts on the sides give the shoe flexibility and freedom of movement and, together with the loops on the shaft edge, make it easy to put on and take off. The thick rubber sole with a wave profile is particularly striking. It has good traction and ensures that even puddles and muddy weather won't harm your Chelsea so quickly.

Grand Step Shoes is a brand known for comfortable shoes for more than 25 years – let alone for producing these shoes sustainably from natural materials and in fair working conditions. The Mainz-founded label, based in Pirmasens by now, places great value on high requirements for testing and certifying regarding its production materials. Indeed, Grand Step Shoes adheres to the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) and follows the IVN guidelines (International Association of the Natural Textile Industry). Grand Step Shoes has been working with the same partners in manufacturing for years and maintains close, personal contact with the workshops, often small family businesses, in Europe and Vietnam. Adherence to an internationally recognised “Code of Conduct” ensures that the people employed there work under fair conditions and get adequate pay. These criteria also apply to the companies involved in the entire supply chain. While showing such scrutiny in production, it’s no wonder that Grand Step Shoes is similarly meticulous when it comes to wearing comfort – the diligence borne of profound insight into the foot’s anatomy and superior knowledge of suitable materials.

The outsole may leave colored marks on the shoe or floor due to abrasion.
