Solid Blake Construction Chelsea Boot
I like this boot. The color is rich, and the construction feels solid. Compared with Allen Edmonds Liverpool Chelsea Boot, I like how the sole of this boot feels thicker so that I feel less of an impact on my feet and joints. Of course, if you want Goodyear Welt construction, you'll have to stick with Allen Edmonds. But on the other hand, some people may prefer the sole sticking out less on the sides which is characteristic of a Blake construction.
So overall I'd recommend this boot. I'm looking forward to more shoes (Oxfords?) and boots from Tangier. If this kind of quality and price point is characteristic of the future of this brand, I'd be happy to purchase again. I might even consider switching from Allen Edmonds considering that they keep on getting bought and sold again and again by PE firms, and seem to be raising prices and going away from American manufacturing.
