Chukka Boots

Designed for walking, hiking, trail, or casual wear, Chukka boots are always a good choice for ankle support and protection. You can find a large variety of styles for children as well as men and women. This practical boot began as a hybrid of dessert boots and were worn by scooter, mad Mods. The ankle protection prevented the Mods from the heat of the engine.

Originally Chukka boots were prone to leave marks on the ground, because they were made from suede. Then after the invention of Hush Puppies, marking became less of an issue since the boots were treated synthetically.

The classic Chukka boot is a five-eyelet tie design. However, there are two-eyelet Chukka boots, which are meant to be worn for style rather than durability. Children's Chukka boots generally have a longer shaft with more eyelets, so that you can choose how tightly the shoe will hold to the ankle.

Chukka boots are a versatile shoe, worn as safety work shoes, as well as outdoor hiking boots, formal attire, and casual accoutrements. Perfect children at play, professional police on the job, hikers on the trail, fashionable men and women on the street, and for anyone who is looking for comfort and hardy fashion.
