Characteristics of Chelsea Boots
• Ankle length.
• Have rounded toes.
• Low heels.
• Two parts each made from a single piece of leather: the vamp and the quarters.
• The vamp and the quarters meet near the ankle where they are joined by a strip of vulcanized rubber or elastic.
• The strip of elastic extends to just below the ankle but not all the way down to the sole (just above the welt).
• The vamp and quarters are not sewn one on top of the other. Instead, they are sewn together in one plain below the ankle.
