Grant Stone Chelsea Boot
Horween Crimson ChromexcelThese are pretty comfy. Had to go full size down from brannock yet they are still kinda loose on me in the instep. A little bit of heel slip but I get that with all my non-laced boots. I like how the back of these are curved inwards. I guess they designed the Chelsea’s that way so it locks in your heel. The toe box and the Elias’s toe box are very similar in style and shape. I hope that GS decides to make a Crimson Cxl Elias boots in the future because that would be nice. I love Cxl. It shines up so nicely just from brushing. I applied some VSC to these when I got them but have applied second coat because I don’t want them super shiny.

These are nice as well. Had to go fully size from brannock however, I probably go 1.5 sizes down but it may fit too tight. I put off trying the Chelsea’s because they’re on the UK last which I’ve never had before so I started with a 9.5D and I was swimming in those but Kim said they’re the same size as the Elias which I have found not to be true. These look nice but I still prefer my Elias over these until I get them resoled with a Dr Soles half sole in red brick colorway or the green half soles. It’s going to be a while before I get these resoled. They are comfy and very similar to the Elias in style. Looks great! Time to condition them with some VSC.Shop similar
