Herring Kirkdale rubber-soled rubber-soled Chelsea boots in Cedar Grain - Herring Sale. In a style reminiscent of the Australian work boot, the Kirkdale is an elasticated gusset boot in rich mahogany grain leather and fashioned on the 175 last. Extremely rugged and water resistant, thanks to their Veldtschoen construction and Dainite rubber sole, this boot is at its best when the elements are at their worst. Veldtschoen construction makes for a particularly tough boot as the upper turns outwards and is stitched directly to the midsole. Herring Shoes Kirkdale rubber-soled rubber-soled Chelsea boots
