Walk like an Egyptian—specifically, like a distinguished pharaoh—with our astonishing custom-engraved Chelsea boots, a true testament to artisanal craftsmanship.
These boots are hand-cut from premium high-grade Italian crust leather, known for its durability and luxurious feel. The boot patterns are meticulously engraved with exquisite Egyptian hieroglyphic motifs, which add a unique cultural flair. Our Maestro colorist employs natural dyes and oils, coupled with extensive expertise, to create the stunning "Museum" Patina finish. This remarkable process involves careful hand-brushing and polishing, resulting in a glacé effect that is visually captivating, as evidenced in the photographs.
Each pair is authentically Goodyear welted, employing traditional shoemaking techniques that ensure longevity and quality. The classic leather sole is intentionally chosen for this boot style; it has the narrowest profile, often regarded as the most elegant option for formal footwear. Additionally, the leather sole combines hardwearing properties with flexibility and practicality while enhancing the overall beauty of the boot.
Regarding the shoe last, the "Savile" shoe last has been refined through numerous iterations to achieve the ideal shape for formal men's footwear. It features a soft chisel toe and a long, elegant vamp, making it an excellent choice for complementing any classic suit.
With original 360-degree Goodyear welting, a luxurious full calf leather interior, and exquisite A-grade Italian crust leather, these Chelsea boots represent the pinnacle of men's footwear. Elevate your collection with our exceptional patina Chelsea boots—an investment in both style and sophistication.

Comparing Shoes
When comparing two different shoes you should know that, despite their external differences, the inner shape is the key element when it comes to fitting.
See below a comparison between two Wholecut shoes as an example, both with the same size (42 EU).
The one on the left is made using the Zurigo Last (rounded toe) and the other one uses the Monti Last (long chisel toe).
As you can see, the long and narrow toe shape of the Monti last generates a larger blind / unused space at the toe. How much space you have in front of the toe varies depending on the type of shoe and its toe shape.
That is why, even though the shoe on the right is 1 cm longer (total length measured from the heel to the tip of the toe) both shoes are effectively the same size.
Admittedly, there's no point in comparing the fitting of two different shoes only based on their total length.
