"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.

    Almost perfect

    Please keep in mind I am being critical, especially as a fan of Origin. I own three other Origin boots, work denim, and two different BJJ Gis.

    To the one biggest issue I personally have with the Origin Chelsea boot there is a sewn in seam at the inner heel area. This seam connects the two heel counters and it is directly top to bottom sewn along where your heel sits and it is very uncomfortable. This may go away as the boot wears in, but I have not reached that point after 3 days of casual wear.

    Granted, in the same area, they did include an extra layer of leather (mole skin or another tough leather) where your heel would normally wear through on the interior. This is something my Origin Lincoln boots did not have and had to be added after 6 to 9 months of wear.

    The leather is slightly dry around the toe and needed some mink oil . Typical maintenance. They look great with jeans and slip on well. If Origin could make the mole skin patch on the interior a one piece design instead of two sewn together, this might be a nearly perfect boot.

    Much love to the Origin Maine team.

    Hi Jesse G,

    Thank you for your detailed feedback on The Statesman Chelsea Boot by Origin®. We appreciate your thorough assessment, particularly as someone experienced with our product line. Your specific observations about the interior heel construction and the seam placement provide valuable insight for our ongoing product development. While we understand the heel counter seam is currently causing discomfort, we're pleased to hear you've noticed the additional leather reinforcement - a direct improvement from our Lincoln boot design. Your practical feedback about the leather conditioning needs and overall aesthetics demonstrates the kind of detailed perspective that helps both our team and other customers. We value your continued support of our American-made products and appreciate the constructive suggestions for future refinements. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with these boots.

    Great boots

    Extremely comfortable. A little tough to get on at first but hoping they break in some.

    Hi Sean D.,

    It's rewarding to know that you've found the Statesman Chelsea Boot to be extremely comfortable. You're right about the initial fit - like all quality leather boots, they will continue to break in and mold to your feet over time, creating an even more personalized fit. We take great pride in creating footwear that delivers exceptional comfort without compromising on quality, so your appreciation means a lot to us. Thank you for choosing Origin!
