Light, versatile and built for everyday life, the Veldskoen Chukka is our classic take on the original South African veldskoen. Handmade in KwaZulu-Natal, it offers an easy blend of comfort, durability and clean styling.

The single-piece suede upper keeps the boot lightweight and flexible, while the soft leather insole provides cushioned support underfoot. With a naturally comfortable fit and a shape that moulds to your foot over time, this is footwear designed to be worn often.

This is a fully unisex style, shaped to suit a broad range of foot types and ideal for both men and women who want everyday comfort with easy styling.

Equally at home in the city as it is on countryside paths, the Veldskoen Chukka delivers a relaxed, understated look that adapts to whatever the day holds.

A timeless, do-everything chukka with South African roots and everyday British practicality.

  • Care

    Brush the suede regularly to maintain texture and remove surface dust. Avoid deep water and allow the boots to dry naturally if they become damp. A light suede protector can help reduce marks from everyday wear.

  • Sizing

    True to size for most. If you are between sizes, we suggest sizing up as the suede will soften and contour to your foot over time. Refer to our UK and EU size guide for accuracy.

  • Delivery & returns

    Fast UK delivery from our Bath dispatch centre. Free exchanges on unworn boots. Returns accepted within 14 days. Simple and straightforward.

  • Fit

    Medium fit with a natural rounded toe shape. This unisex design offers a flexible upper that breaks in comfortably and adapts to your foot with wear.

  • Sole

    Thick Forest Crepe in Toffee. Cushioned, flexible and naturally grippy. Provides quiet, steady comfort throughout the day.

  • Materials

    Premium suede upper with a soft leather insole for breathability and long-term comfort. Natural crepe outsole for a cushioned, shock-absorbing step.

Why We Made This Boot

The Veldskoen Chukka is inspired by one of the earliest footwear designs worn across rural South Africa. We kept the simplicity that made it a favourite for generations and refined the materials and fit to suit modern everyday use. The result is an understated, versatile chukka that feels familiar from the first wear and only gets better with time.

FAQs

1. How durable is the Veldskoen Chukka for everyday use?

The Chukka is designed for regular wear. Its premium suede upper, leather insole and natural crepe sole hold up well to daily activity when cared for properly.

2. Will the natural crepe sole wear down quickly?

Crepe soles are naturally cushioned and comfortable. They do compress gradually with long-term use, which is normal, but they remain durable for everyday wear when used on typical city or town surfaces.

3. How should I break in the Veldskoen Chukka?

Wear them for short periods at first. The suede will soften and the insole will adjust to your foot shape within a few wears, creating a comfortable, personalised fit.

4. Are Veldskoen Chukkas suitable for wider feet?

The Chukka has a medium fit with a flexible upper that adapts well to different foot shapes. Many customers with slightly wider feet find the break-in comfortable due to the soft suede and unstructured design.

5. Can I wear the Chukka in wet weather?

Light showers are fine, but suede performs best when kept away from heavy rain or deep puddles. Apply a suede protector and allow the boots to dry naturally if they get damp.
