Bennett Black Calf with Commando Soles - 722

The black Chelsea boot, built for winter and the city in bad weather. The Bennett keeps its clean lines — elastic side gores, a low pull tab, an unbroken black silhouette on the sharp 722 last — and sets them on a chunky lugged commando sole. The result is the slip-on boot with grip, weather-resistance, and an extra inch of confident height.

The upper is full-grain European calfskin, a clean box-calf black with an even shine — no burnish, just depth. Goodyear welted by our artisans, so it holds its shape and resoles rather than retires.

The 722 last runs long and lean with a slight chisel toe, sharper and more modern than the rounder 675 — a refined boot given a rugged base. The commando sole is deep-lugged rubber: real traction on wet stone and cold pavement, a confident stance, and a touch more height than the leather-soled version.

This is the black Bennett for the months when the leather sole stays home. Sharp on top, rugged underneath — a Chelsea boot that handles the suit and the snow without changing shoes.
