The Acadia Chukka Redux is an update to our best-selling Acadia Chukka, Now with Lactae Hevea outsoles. A chukka is a short, ankle-height, boot that typically has two or three rows of eyelets. The Acadia strikes the perfect balance between summer moccasins and winter boots making it the ideal transitional footwear between summer and fall. The Acadia Chukka Redux features our favorite sole from Reltex Lactae Hevea, the "Rally" sole. This wedge sole has superb comfort and support and excellent grip on slick surfaces. We've kept the Acadia unlined for comfort so the uppers can quickly mold to your feet but also for superior breathability in warmer weather. Crafted from Stead's original kudu suede, the uppers are velvety soft while retaining the structure and durability of full-grain leather. Genuine Handsewn Moccasin Construction, Made in Maine, USA.
I love the look and function of these shoes. I live in Minnesota where there is often slush and snow. I have not yet broken them in and find that the top rubs my Achilles heal. Once broken in, I think they will be a favorite.
So, I’ve now had these shoes since August. They are comfortable and have broken in well. The soles are still sticky, catching rug edges and they are still squeaking. The left shoe tongue was sewn in askew, slightly resulting in a crooked lace up …not a deal breaker. The shoes have no reinforcement in the heel cup, so my normal walking gate has pushed the uppers over the outer sole edge a bit. Consequences of a moccasin style shoe I guess. Overall the shoes are satisfying my demands for light winter inclement weather wear. I’m glad I got them through crowdfunding and not full retail. These shoes still smell great, and if you love the smell of a well worn baseball glove, then every time you put them on should make you smile.
It's a beautiful chukka but I should of sized down at least a half size.
I think my husband has worn them every day since he opened the box.
Super comfortable. Lots of compliments!
My new favorite! So comfortable and I get compliments all the time on them.
