The Alki Redux is a modified version of our classic Alki chelsea boot: The Redux version is constructed from three panels of leather instead of a single wholecut piece. Smaller pieces allow us to use genuine Nile Crocodile leather to create, as you can see, a total showstopper of a boot!
This is a classic black colorway: No frills, no patina, just a slick looking boot that will add some serious gravitas to your outfits. Wear these as you would any black chelsea -- while you and any observant onlookers bear in mind that this crocodile boot is so much more!
Due to the unique and costly nature of these boots, we are offering this GMTO with an unprecedented amount of customization options. Choose from all of our lasts, as well as all sole styles, sole thickness, heel style, and even narrow / wide size fittings.
Production time on this pair is around 6 months from the end of the GMTO order period, which will be the 5th of June; you can expect your pairs to be ready to be shipped to you in late Autumn / early Winter. Note that this is a longer than usual production period, due to the additional time needed for exotic leather to pass regulatory and customs inspections.
Final price of the crocodile Alki Redux is $5,000. As a GMTO, there is no $175 made-to-order fee. Choose between leaving a 50% deposit of $2,500, and paying up front to receive 10% off the total price: That's $500 in savings, in addition to the $175 saved compared to a single made-to-order pair!
Design Disclaimer: The boot pictured here was a small sample size made as a wholecut, and is not pictured with the side seams that will be present on your GMTO pair. All other design aspects will remain unchanged, besides what you select as your customization preferences.
Export Disclaimer: If you live outside the US, your government's customs department will impose import duties on your boots. In addition, they will also impose a "CITES" fee specifically for handling exotic leather products. Import duties vary by destination country, and CITES fees are usually about $50-60 but may also vary by destination.
