EUC Florsheim Imperial Handmade Leather Chukka Boots Sz 10 These Handmade Florsheim Imperial Brown Leather Boots are in amazing condition. I wear a 10.5 and these are a little too snug so I’m going to clear room for a new pair. These classic boots are the top tier of the Florsheim line up. They are clean inside and out and are waiting to be broken in on your adventures. Here is some interesting history on Florsheim Chukka boots: Both the Chukka Boot and the Jodhpur Boot derive from the 19th century British presence in India, and the discovery of the game of Polo in the 1850s by British tea planters on the Burmese border with India. (A ‘chukker’ is a period of play in Polo). Both boots were readily adapted by the British at home and quickly became staples of the Gentleman’s wardrobe. The Chukka Boot is a casual, sporting boot to just above the ankle, plain toed, fastening with two (although sometimes three or four) high lacings or strap (as in a Monk). The Chukka Boot is often called a Desert Boot for having been much adopted -in Suede- by British troops. Details: Brown Leather Upper & Insole Man Made sole Lace Up So 10 (tts)
