The Hall Madden Essential Chukka

Generally, the term chukka refers to a form of desert boots originally worn by British soldiers in World War II. Like many shoes, this style of boot has utilitarian roots, but gained popularity in the 1950s and has since evolved into a shoe that is now worn in a business casual setting with suits and jeans.

The Hall Madden essential chukka boot is very distinct, and will be:

  • Ankle-high

  • Open-laced

  • Unlined

With:

  • Two pairs of eyelets

  • Thin leather soles

  • Calfskin or suede uppers in two parts

  • Rounded toes

We recommend a lightweight, flexible summer suede with a crepe sole for a more casual look with jeans, or a calfskin upper with leather soles for a dressier look that pairs with suits or trousers.

Our suede colors, available in a flexible summer suede or sturdy all-season suede:
