"If it fails, it’s on me. So it won’t."

The Statesman Chelsea Boot blends timeless style with unapologetic durability. Crafted in Maine by master craftsmen using heritage techniques and modern precision.

"I designed this boot to outlast me. This isn’t a product. It’s a promise."

Pete Roberts, Founder

BUILT ON HALLOWED GROUND

The Statesman Chelsea Boot is crafted in Franklin County, Maine—once home to the largest shoemaking industry in America. Before outsourcing swept the country, this was where boots were born. The Statesman does not just revive that legacy. It builds on it.

    Fantastic boot

    I really, really like this boot. Super comfortable. I wore them about 10 hours straight right out of the box. First time putting them on, they were a little tight as expected with new leather but settled in just fine and I expect them to get even better over time. Slight rub on the heal initially but I also expect this to go away as these boots settle in to my foot shape. Very happy with the boot.

    Hi Skylar R.,

    We're excited to hear about your experience with the Statesman Chelsea Boots! It's fantastic that you were able to wear them for a full 10-hour stretch right from day one - that's exactly the kind of immediate comfort we designed them to deliver. We love that you're already noticing how the leather is beginning to conform to your feet, and you're absolutely right that they'll continue to become even more comfortable as they break in further. It's especially rewarding to know that you're finding them to be such a perfect fit despite the initial adjustment period that comes with premium leather footwear. Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback about your new boots!

    Well worth the wait….

    I was excited for these since I first saw Pete with the prototype. Quality and craftsmanship of these boots are best in class. They were broken in after just a few wears. Would like to see a slip resistant sole in the future so I could wear them to work.

    How about some slippers in the future?

    Great Craftsmanship

    A little tighter but still true to size vs. the Origin work boot, as expected for a chelsea boot . Robust for the style, expect it to break in nicely.

    Hi Alejandro O.,

    We're delighted to hear your initial impressions of the Statesman Chelsea Boot! It's fantastic that you've noticed the intentional difference in fit compared to our work boots - that slightly snugger feel is indeed precisely engineered for the Chelsea boot style. We love that you're appreciating the robust construction while recognizing the break-in potential. As someone familiar with our work boots, your perspective on the craftsmanship is especially meaningful to us. Thank you for sharing!
