A versatile choice for autumn and winter, a chukka can be dressed up or down and worn with many different pieces in your wardrobe. Here's a classic version in black calf leather, made on the slightly chiselled 915 last, from one of Spain's top manufacturers of Goodyear welted shoes: Yanko.
Underneath you'll find a sturdy rubber sole from Vibram, both durable and grippy. Once worn out, the shoe can easily be resoled by a cobbler. Heel stiffener in leather board that moulds well to the shape of your feet.
Construction:
Goodyear welted.
Leather board heel stiffeners which adapt to your feet (cheaper brands usually use plastic heel stiffeners which makes the shoes hard to break in).
Sole:
