Gorton | Dealer Boots Side Zip

Zip drawn up. Ankle high. Out the door.

An ankle-height dealer boot with a full-length side zip, cut close to the foot so the shaft sits neat against the ankle. The smooth faux leather upper holds its shape rather than collapsing at the vamp after a week of wear. A low-profile rubber sole keeps the proportion trim under a chino or a jean. Four colourways run across the size range, 6 to 11.5.

Side Zip That Gets You Out in Seconds The zip runs the height of the shaft and sits flush with the upper, so there is no bulk at the ankle under a trouser hem. Nothing to lace on a morning you are already late.

Ankle Profile That Keeps Your Leg Line Clean The shaft finishes just above the ankle bone, which is the point where a trouser breaks cleanly instead of stacking. It reads dressier than most chukka boots and easier than an Oxford.

Rubber Sole With Real Footing The treaded outsole holds on wet pavement and polished floors alike, and its low stack adds grip without lifting the boot out of proportion.

Smooth Faux Leather Built to Hold Its Shape The upper is a fine-grain synthetic leather with a soft sheen and very little give, stitched to the sole along a clean welt line. Panels are kept few, so there is less to crease than on most desert boots, and the interior lining sits smooth underfoot.

Wear them with slim dark denim and a knit, or with tailored wool trousers when the day asks for something closer to a shoe.
