The R.M. Williams Craftsman Yearling Chelsea Black is by R.M. Williams — the iconic Australian bootmaker founded in 1932 in Adelaide by Reginald Murray Williams. The Craftsman Chelsea boot is made from a single piece of leather, with no side seam — a defining construction that has been refined but never fundamentally changed in over 90 years of production.
The boot is welted and Goodyear-style stitched, with a leather sole and a slip-on Chelsea silhouette featuring elastic side gussets and a pull-tab. The single-piece-of-leather upper is what defines the boot — it eliminates the weak point of conventional bootmaking and creates an instantly recognisable silhouette.
The Yearling leather is R.M. Williams' premium calf — taken from young cattle, finely-grained, and finished with a slightly less glossy surface than the standard polished calf. Yearling develops character with wear while maintaining the boot's clean line.
This is the black colourway.
Care: Brush suede with a suede brush after wear. For polished leather, apply a leather cream every few wears. Use shoe trees overnight. R.M. Williams offers a refurbishment and resoling service.
