The Chelsea boot is a tight fitting, heeled, ankle-high boot that piqued fashion consciousness in the early 1960s. They were most likely originally worn as riding boots far before then. Its popularity is often attributed in part to The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, who primarily wore Chelsea-style boots with Cuban Heels. They were also considered an element of the 60s mod scene.
