Nimflex Chukka Boot

Story

Handsome chukka boots handcrafted in a 6th-generation Italian workshop

The versatility of a chukka boot is hard to beat. Originally designed as a rugged and lightweight boot for British troops stationed in desert locales, the chukka has since become a casual footwear icon. These Nimflex Moc-Toe Chukka Boots are just as comfy, versatile, and sharp looking as the classic desert boot style—but crafted by hand in a 6th-generation workshop in Northern Italy. They’re eco-friendly, handsome as hell, and represent the best value on the market thanks to their top-notch, buttery soft materials.

Features

• Chukka boot style favored by WWII desert soldiers and fashion icons like Steve McQueen
• Environmentally responsible construction, from the eco-friendly leather to the natural rubber

Materials

Because these boots are handmade and hand-finished, the boots you receive might appear lighter or darker than in the image on this page. Due to the way the oil dries, darkens, and affects the leather used for these shoes, there’s bound to be some color variations. You can oil them yourself with vegetable or mink oil or send them to a shoe repair shop or cobbler to have them professionally oiled to achieve a darker color.

• Upper: Bovine suede leather
• Midsole: Bovine hard leather
• Insole, Memory foam, vegetable-tanned calf leather
• Outsole: Natural plantation crepe

About Astorflex

When you take top-grade, eco-conscious leather sourced from Tuscany’s master tanneries and pair it with the meticulous art of Italian craftsmanship, you get nothing short of an Astorflex shoe. Nestled in the small Northern Italian town of Castel D’ario (Mantova) since the 19th century, Astorflex is a family endeavor that’s been elevating the shoe game for six generations. From suede desert boots to everyday leather chukkas, each custom style is handbuilt to the Travenzoli family’s legendary standards. In fact, when we first discovered their criminally underrated chukkas awhile back, they shipped each order with a box of pasta from their family-run restaurant! Basically, any shoemaker can put Italian leather on rubber soles and call it a day, but few can turn those same materials into a walking work of art. And that’s just what Astroflex does. For your next pair of go-tos, you’ve come to the right place.
