Thanks! We'll notify you as soon as we add new styles for Chippewa.
Since 1901, Chippewa has been creating footwear based on simple, fundamental rules. Most importantly, they use only the best materials, the best construction techniques and the most innovative technology. The result -- unquestionably the best boots around. That's what we mean when we say Chippewa Integrity.

Initially, Chippewa started with only logger boots in its product line. Constructed of double and triple leather midsoles and hand-plugged outsole spikes, the logger boots were designed to assist loggers as they rolled the logs down the rivers to the mills. Based on that state-of-the-art boot, Chippewa gained a reputation for quality and began expanding the product line to include more boot categories.

The past century has brought significant changes in the need for quality outdoor work and sport footwear. Chippewa Boots continues to add new products to its inventory to meet the needs of its loyal following. As part of the Justin Brands, Inc. family, quality and craftsmanship continue to be the leading guides in its development, just as it has been for the last 100 years. Rugged as the land they walk, Chippewa. Live the Spirit.

This boot is a great alternative to more expensive boots like Red Wing, Whites, etc. These are a perfect boot to wear when you need the durability and coverage of a boot, but need something a bit more dressy. I wear mine with khakis and jeans at work and it allows me to move from the office to the field without having to switch shoes. Fits about 1/2 size big, but the EE is not as wide as it sounds. I put a pair of SOLE insoles in them and can be on my feet for 12 hours no problem. If you plan on a insole I would order your actual size to ensure they are big enough. Great boot at a great price.

These are excellent boots for the price. The leather seems to be full-grain, the shoe is fully welted so the sole can be recrafted, the sole is low-profile but still grips well. Construction seems bombproof. The details aren't as polished as they could be and there is a bit of extra rubber here and there on the soles that could stand to be shaved down, for example. But structurally speaking, there are no flaws. I've only had mine for a short while, and after a couple applications of leather protector, they have cheerfully withstood a few days in my dad's woodworking shop and a hike through snowy mountains. A few scuffs here and there enhance these shoes' good looks. They are comfortable and break in pretty quickly. No blisters or hot spots at all. If you're looking for a high-quality, US-made boot but don't want to dish out big bucks for brands like Red Wing and Wolverine, these Chips are a great affordable alternative.

I'd also recommend: Thorogood, Red Wing, Frye, Wolverine

I was set on buying a pair of Red Wing boots, but their sizing runs just a tad too narrow for me. These boots are a great alternative at half the price. Pros: a solid, well-designed upper, and comfortable fit (minus the insole, which I found too cushiony). Cons: laces ripped after two months of wear, and the sole has surprisingly little traction on snow or ice.

Great boot. I've wear a size 11 in most shoes, and a size 9 1/2 fit well, but slightly narrow. Boots have been extremely comfortable after a couple weeks of break in and applying some leather conditioner/waterproofing. I work in a kitchen and the soles are great - never slip even on wet tile floors. So far they have been very durable and look fantastic.

These are a nice looking boot. I ordered a half size down and the length is perfect. I have a good EE width and these fit me just a little snug, but with some breaking in the should fit great. The padded insole is thick which was good because my othro-insole fits the boot perfect. These will be a very comfortable pair boots for me! A nice boot for the money. Better than the Red Wing Iron Ranger boots I looked at the in the Red Wing store.
