GORAL’s Baslow Boot Beats Blundstones to a Pulp

No, it turns out we weren’t the only ones daydreaming of a truly elevated Blundstone-style boot all these years. The shape and design you know just got a major upgrade thanks to the team over at GORAL. Known as the Baslow Chelsea, this boot comes in 4 shades of Horween chromexcel, and it’s fully prepared to pick up where your last Chelseas left off.

The Baslow comes fitted with Chelsea boot calling cards with its elastic mesh panels,  pull tabs for easy on/off, and a round-toed silhouette. Featuring a soft and water-resistant leather lining to keep your foot nestled safely, look forward to a resoleable, blake and sidewall-stitched TPU sole when you’re pounding the pavement or hitting the dusty trail. But perhaps even more important than those upgraded construction credentials is GORAL’s use of Horween’s infamous chromexcel leather. Enriched with fats and oils, Chromexcel is among the world’s most revered pull-up leathers, known for its patina potential, durability, and easy care. There are four flavors of Chromexcel on offer, too — Natural, Black, Dark Brown, and Forest Green.

Top-drawer leather, sturdy construction, and a timeless, versatile silhouette – this is a British classic, made in small batches in GORAL’s factory in Sheffield, England, to ensure the quality it deserves. P.S. for all the fellow wide-width homies, these come in both regular AND wide widths.

Available for $446 from GORAL.
