It will sound seriously silly to say I am obsessed with a shoe brand, but I have to admit it is true, I am! I am obsessed with the Chatham brand. But my obsession isn’t because I have a boat and spend my days sailing off the Welsh coast, it is purely because they are beautifully made and so incredibly comfortable to wear. The fact that the company are so confident in their own brand that they can offer a unique 2-year manufacturer’s guarantee is for me an extra and much appreciated bonus, I really don’t need any more than that.
So now let me tell you about the Olivia – this is a durable shoe. It is a wonderfully super-soft, slip-on deck shoe that has been crafted from premium Nubuck leather with a heel counter and non-slip rubber sole. It is clear to see that this shoe has a classic moccasin construction which has been hand stitched and it also features Chatham’s new sole spring poron performance cushioning. For me this is really important as it is anti-bacterial and offers me, the wearer, maximum comfort and shock absorption. I am totally miserable if my shoes or boots are not comfy! The company call them deck shoes and it is obvious that the Olivia has been designed with a nautical lifestyle in mind, but I can assure you that a boat is not essential, honestly and but trust me when I say you will love the comfort offered by these Olivia deck shoes. If you are worried about sizing, please remember that there are some half sizes are available but also that these leather deck shoes will stretch up to half a size anyway to give that extra bit of space for your feet if needed.
I appreciate the endorsement from this British company’s Managing Director Philip Marsh. He insists on trialling all their products and admits to giving them a serious workout, putting material and workmanship to the test. This is why he has no hesitation giving his customers his guarantee for these superior shoes.
