Designer Desert Boots for Men

Alongside classic designer Chelsea boots for men and cool lace-up boots, desert and chukka boots are among the most popular men's shoes in autumn and winter. Mostly made from suede, these models stand for casual elegance and comfort - characteristics that are particularly in demand in men's wardrobes. Chukka boots in particular are true all-rounders that can serve looks from smart casual to business - perfect for numerous occasions. This may be due to the unique symbiosis that characterises the designer desert boot for men or chukka boot: It is half robust boot and half classic lace-up shoe. It also characterised the fashion of subcultures such as the British Mods in the 1960s and remained of great importance for the New Wave movement and the indie pop scene of the 1980s. American acting legend and style icon Steve McQueen also wore suede desert boots for men - both in private and in his films. His favourite model was characterised by its wide crepe sole. This shoe is still very popular today.

The History of Desert Boots

The Desert Boot was discovered in the early 1940s by Nathan Clark, the great-grandson of British shoe manufacturer founder James Clark, during a military mission in Burma. The shoe, which he saw on other soldiers, came from a market in Cairo and was characterised by its simplicity and functionality. However, the Desert Boot originated in South Africa. It was worn in the Sahara by members of the South African division. In addition to this boot, Clark also brought so-called ‘Chooply’ or ‘Chuply’ - leather sandals that were originally worn in north-east India. Nathan Clark's shoe discovery initially failed to convince his colleagues at the factory, but Clark persevered - with success. Clarks Originals for men launched the shoe for men in 1950 and quickly made it a worldwide bestseller. Since then, designer desert boots for men have been regarded as absolute classics and stand for a perfect mix of elegance and robustness. In addition to the classic brown suede version, the ankle boots are now available in all kinds of colours and types of leather.

But What Characterises a Desert Boot?

The original Desert Boot for men was made from brown calf suede and was completely unlined. Today, it is still primarily made of suede, which gives it its characteristic style. As a lace-up boot, it has two to three pairs of eyelets and open lacing. In combination with its lightweight crepe sole made of natural rubber, it offers perfect walking comfort in the city and in the countryside.

The Difference Between Desert Boots & Chukka Boots

Although chukka boots are a variant of designer desert boots for men, there are small important differences between the two models that set them apart.

At a Glance: What Characterises the Chukka Boot

  • The term is Hindi and comes from the sport of polo, in which the playing sections are called ‘chukkas’
  • Worn by English polo players in India at the time
  • Always ankle-high
  • Thin leather sole
  • Two or three eyelets (never more or less)
  • Rounded toe part
  • Originally made from brown suede
  • Consists of two parts: the vamp and the quarters
  • Open lacing like designer derbies for men
  • Originally unlined, it now has a normal leather lining
  • Favoured by Edward VIII, who made the shoe model suitable for the masses

Only with a robust crepe or rubber sole does the chukka boot become a desert boot, which you should only wear with casual trousers such as jeans or khakis due to its casual look. Chukka boots, on the other hand, look a little more elegant, which also makes them ideal for more formal occasions. Thanks to their flat leather soles, they also work well with designer suits for men. By using suede as the upper material, both styles have a very autumnal feel and are particularly popular for looks in the colder months.

Can Desert Boots Be Worn in Winter?

Yes, you can wear desert boots for men in summer, but also in winter - especially on dry, cold days. The robust crepe sole offers sufficient grip on slippery surfaces such as leaves, but they are not designed for wet or snowy conditions due to the suede upper. It is important that you look after your designer desert boots for men regularly to prolong their lifespan. Suede and suede leather in particular require special shoe care to keep them looking like new even after frequent wear. Gentle brushing and the use of care sprays with an impregnating effect are essential to protect the shoe from moisture and dirt. This also applies to leather accessories and clothing.

Which Trousers Go With Desert Boots?

This question is easy to answer, especially in the context of designer desert boots for men: the shoe model is a real all-rounder and can be combined with a variety of trouser styles. Whether chinos, jeans or corduroy trousers - the possibilities are endless. Black desert boots for men in particular offer a particularly elegant touch that can be easily integrated into different looks. For a relaxed casual style, men's desert boots in brown can be worn with rolled-up jeans, which draws attention to the high-quality boots. Chukka boots, like Chelsea boots made from smooth leather, can also be styled with elegant suits and designer wool trousers for men.

Brands & Materials: Luxury at Every Step

Designer desert boots for men are not only popular because of their timeless, classic look, but also because of their high-quality workmanship. Calfskin, suede or even specially treated suede are among the preferred materials that make the shoe particularly high-quality and comfortable. Brands such as Clarks Originals, Officine Creative for men, Doucal's for men or Tod's for men rely on the finest leather and traditional shoemaking skills. Welted models in exclusive Made-in-Italy quality or versions made from high-quality nubuck leather not only offer excellent comfort, but also impress with their durability. The great variety also leads to new interpretations of the shoe: Santoni for men, for example, dispenses with the lacing completely for one of its models, creating a hybrid design that is reminiscent of a loafer with a high shaft.
