MC Chelsea Black Calf

A study in reduction, the Chelsea relies on proportion rather than ornament. Here it is cut in black hand-painted calf and finished on a white sport xtralight rubber wedge sole, a combination that suits the city in winter and the coast in autumn, and improves with every year of wear.

Made to order in the Mathieu Castanier atelier, hand-lasted, hand-finished and built to be resoled for decades. Available in EU, UK and US sizes, or fully personalised through the 3D atelier.

Feed it now and then with a matching cream and finish with a soft brush; the leather deepens into a rich patina over time.
