Water Resistant Coating Repels Spills And Stains

As an official partner brand of EON Productions, the makers of the James Bond films, Crockett & Jones delved into the archives to find its 1962 catalogue.

A boot of the era, the Chelsea, was the only choice. Crockett & Jones has been producing Chelsea boots for nearly a century, with one of the first illustrations appearing in 1925. Aptly named Chelsea, it wasn't until the early 1960s that 'Chelsea' appeared in its Stock Catalogue for wider wholesale purchase.

1962, the year that Dr. No was released, paved the way for one of the firms most successful style categories over the past 60 years. Featuring traditional, straight cut elastics, a plain front whole vamp, oak bark leather sole, flexible shoulder insoles and a jockey back strip in matching calf. Produced on the original 236 last, a last that was launched in the early 60s and features a traditional round toe shape.

Includes a pair of fully lasted, hand-made shoe trees, embossed with the '60 years of bond' 007 logo.
