Alder - Black Calf

$280.00 $350.00

Chelsea boots are a universal favorite, from board room to concert stage and everywhere in between. Simple detailing and supreme convenience make the chelsea an enduring style; add beautiful materials and Goodyear-welted construction to the mix, and the result is a pair of J.FitzPatrick "Alder" chelseas.

Sitting on our rubber Street Walker Sole, our Alders are boots that are both as tough and elegant as you are. This pair in Black Calf is the classic chelsea, for that iconic look perfectly pairable with denim or fine trousers.

    The Rainier last is the smart round last of our JF Line. It is slightly elongated, but fits true to size with a medium instep. Its fit is between our J. FitzPatrick TMG and NGT lasts in terms of length and width, but with a lower (more standard) instep. We recommend keeping your standard size with the Rainier last.

    The Rainier is a classic medium-fitting last:
    Medium forefoot (neither too wide nor too narrow)
    Medium instep, not as generous as our J.FitzPatrick Line lasts
    Good for medium width feet
    Slightly elongated last, yet very shaped to foot length/profile

    Keep the same size in what you wear from:
    Most Crockett & Jones classic fitting lasts
    Carmina lasts (except Simpson)
    Cheaney
    Church's
    Most benchgrade English brands

    Length: Elongated (1-1/2 inches of space at toe)
    Width: Generous
    Instep: High
    Toe Box: Standard
    Last Shape: Hard Chisel

    Please note: Leather is a natural product. We take images of each shoe in all types of light to show you how the color varies. If you want a very specific color, it is best you ask us for an image of the size you wish to purchase, prior to purchasing.

    J.FitzPatrick shoes have a broad set of fit options, from true to size, on the slim side to more wide. It will be important to make sure you read about the specific last that you are looking to purchase.

    One thing to note across the board is that our loafers have been cut on the snug side, compared to the rest of the models. We did this so that you do not need to 'size down' when going for a loafer, rather recommending you stick to your oxford size (**read exception below)

    Here are a few general rules

    • Our insteps would be considered generous
    • All shoes with 6 eyelets will be even more generous in the instep
    • Any model in full suede will feel more generous to its leather counterpart
    • The boots have a forgiving instep in order for you to put them on easily
    • Any monkstrap made on the MGF or LPB will feel more generous to its oxford counterpart
    • If you wear your oxfords very snug, then size up for your loafers. However, for most we recommend taking the same size as your oxfords

    CLEARANCE / SAMPLE SALE SHIPPING POLICY:

    For sample sale pairs, US shipping is a flat rate of $10 for orders over $200, or a flat rate of $20 for orders under $200. International shipping of sample pairs is a flat fee based on shipping destination.
    These higher rates reflect the fact that we normally subsidize shipping to each client's destination, but sample sale shoes are discounted too heavily to allow us to take that same price hit; thank you for your understanding on this matter.
    International shipping rates for sample sale pairs are flat rates of:
    Africa: $90
    Asia: $65
    Australia/Singapore: $70
    Canada: $30 ($20 for purchases greater than $300)
    Eastern Europe: $80
    Western Europe: $65
    Latin America: $70
    Mexico: $50
    Rest Of World: $100

    Non-Clearance/Sample Sale Rates:

    UNITED STATES:

    All orders above $200 shipped within the United States include free shipping via UPS ground shipping. Should you require a faster shipment via USPS or UPS, additional fees will apply.

    The USPS 2-day priority mail service used within the US aims to arrive within 2-3 working days depending on location. This is not a guarantee, however. Your tracking number provided will keep you up to date with your parcel. 

    We look to ship out all purchases 1-2 working days after the time of purchase (weekends not included). During "Sale" periods we aim to ship between 2 -4 days after the time of purchase as the increase in orders affects our ability to be any quicker. Add-ons involving changes to your shoes (toe taps, rubber sole bottoms) will increase delivery time by 7-14 days. Custom patinas will increase delivery time by 14 days.



    INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING:

    All International Orders are shipped from NYC using UPS, DHL or USPS. We will use the service that offers us the best rate. If you prefer one over the other and the one that you prefer is significantly more expensive then we will ask that you pay the difference between the best rate and the rate your preferred courier offers.

    If you prefer one courier over the other, and wish to pay the difference, please indicate this in the notes section of your order. Any failure to do, will result in using the default courier that pffers the best price. Before sending your parcel, we will send an invoice to cover the difference in pricing (should there by any).
    Please note: the shipping charge paid is just the fee to actually ship the parcel. This does not include any other fees to import your parcel into your country. 

    Any and all import duties/fees imposed by your local custom's officials on your parcel will be the responsibility of the customer to pay for. We do not control this and will not be held responsible for any surprises in charges as we do not impose them. Your government does. We declare the parcel at the value paid. We do no under-declare parcel values. Please do not ask us to do so.

    Please note, if you reject your order for not wanting to pay the custom's import taxation, we will be charged a fee for the return shipping. This fee will come out of your refund as we will are not liable for this charge due to your error in ordering. 

    For Remote Labeled Areas a surcharge of the price difference between what we normally pay and what they are quoting will be required to make shipment. 

    We look to ship out all purchases 1-2 working days after the time of purchase (weekends not included). During "Sale" periods we aim to ship between 2 -4 days after the time of purchase as the increase in orders affects our ability to be any quicker.

    For a general guide on shipping cost, please refer to our shipping chart below.

    We ensure each purchase during the time it is in transit until it is delivered to you. We require a signature for any goods delivered, at which point responsibility for your purchased goods passes on to the customer. If you are not the receiver of your purchase (for example a gift order) then the person who signs for the package confirms receipt and is accountable for the package.

    Orders shipped with different billing/shipping addresses will be scrutinized by our Anti-Fraud system. Of course we understand if one wants to ship to their work address. And we reserve the right to cancel any order that has been deemed fraudulent by our system.

    Our shipping rates for Europe and Asia and can vary by country. If shipping to either of these areas, click here to determine which of our shipping zones your country is in.

    Worth the wait

    Been waiting since September(was my fault for not ordering my size) for a restock. Worth the wait since the shipping was fast and the service was great. I’ll be purchasing more in the future.

    Alder - Black Calf

    Leather quality is high.the boot shape looks great. I was advised to go half size smaller and they fit great which is surprising because most chelsea boots don't fit my feets quite right no matter what size I get. I hope we get more color options down the line because I would love a wine like color or in suede on the Saint Helens last

    More than expected

    Seemingly high quality leather so far. No flaws in the stitching.
    Shipped in timely manner and with a free pair of shoe trees.

    Another unexpected addition that I greatly appreciated, but can admit that a person other than myself might not, is that they came with pitched heels.

    Will definitely keep an eye on this brand for future styles and will recommend to others with the caveat that they may want to specify pitching or no pitching in their orders.

    Thank you for the kind review. While we are appreciative of the fact that you noticed the pitched heels and enjoy them, that was actually not intended. It was a mistake as the JF line does not come with them. The story is long why yours had them but was basically a mix up. Glad that you enjoyed them regardless and thank you for your support.

    fantastic

    The Boots were easy to break in. The fit with the insoles that I use inside of my shoes is perfect. I can really say that you and your team have great customer service. I purchased two pairs of boots and you offered the third pair as a bundle so I was very fortunate. in addition to the purchase I ordered a pair of MTO of which you waived the MTO fee, I am grateful. I plan to purchase other shoes.
