The Lems Chelsea is a zero-drop, waterproof Chelsea boot built on the same outsole as the Primal Zen, with an oiled leather upper and a fully waterproof membrane. It keeps the wide, lightweight, foot-shaped fit Lems is known for while adding weather protection for fall and winter. The oiled leather and membrane make the upper stiffer than the suede version, so it takes some break-in. It suits people who want a barefoot-fit boot for wet commutes, travel and light trails, and who accept a firmer, less soft upper than the suede model.

This is a waterproof Chelsea boot with a full-grain oiled leather upper and a waterproof membrane lining. It is built on the same outsole as the Primal Zen, so it is zero-drop and lightweight with an ultra wide fit. It can be dressed up or down.
The oiled leather and waterproof membrane make the upper stiffer than the suede version of this boot. The Chelsea Boot Cedar is the softer option out of the box.
The insole can be removed for more volume inside the shoe or more ground contact. It is a unisex shoe, and the width is the same for men's and women's.
