I'm after some Black leather Chelsea boots under £150, triple welt.

I already have Gant Brookly Chelsea Boot Brown Suede which I love the profile of and may pip for the black pair. I like the toe box as it's not flat and narrow as with many Chelsea Boots.

Any alternative recommendations out there?

the Gant boots aren't triple welted... in fact they're not welted at all!

Grenson 'invented' the triple welt - so take a look at them, though you're probably going to be lucky to find them for £150 unless there's a sale on somewhere

Loake Chatsworth are a classic Chelsea boot shape for me - maybe not what you're looking for though - these Loake fit the bill? - https://www.jonesbootmaker.com/products/mccauley-leather-chelsea-boots-loa36500-322-815?gclid=Cj0KCQiA99ybBhD9ARIsALvZavWfsjYptw5W0wTqaw8UZApNL8h22GLnzH2eRclpt6Qa231AEjJBCx8aAi_GEALw_wcB&variant=39858930286655

Otherwise RM Williams off Vestiaire or ebay etc might be possible

Thanks - I am sure the Gant ones I have are. They have the undersole stitching for resoling....while typing I'm sure I'm just using the wrong terminology.

To this end, it not nessisarilly a triple welt I'm after but a Goodyear Welt as a minimum...
