My wife wanted to surprise me with a pair of brown suede chelsea boots for Christmas, but wasn’t able to find any in time, despite searching high and low. But then she kept on looking, even after the holiday was over, and eventually discovered these Meermin Rapello Suede Boots. They’re made in Spain, have a slim profile, goodyear welt, and a double rubber sole. And, they’re just over $200 a pair, which is a great price for what you’re getting. Now do you guys see why I keep her around?
