The Sam Edelman Genia is an ankle-height Chelsea boot with a rounded toe, stretch side panels, a side zipper and a jagged lug sole. A 2-inch block heel and 1-inch platform give it height without a steep pitch, and the leather or suede upper sits over a plush insole. It suits shoppers who want a chunky-soled Chelsea that reads dressier than a rubber rain boot but still grips wet pavement. Against plainer Chelsea boots it trades a flat sole for a lugged platform and a higher heel, which adds bulk and weight.
