Le Chameau

Le Chameau are famous for their superior Wellington Boots, which are now a staple of the British countryside. Master bootmakers since 1927, Le Chameau uses the finest materials and skilled workmanship to make these beautiful handcrafted boots. The Le Chameau wellies are the perfect choice for everything from country sports to country walks, with a reliable quality that won't let you down.

Founded by Claude Chamot, in a seaside village in Normandy, France, Le Chameau was inspired be a desire to create the most comfortable and best fitting rubber boot. Chamot had listened to farmers, hunters and fishermen who all wanted a boot that would withstand their daily labours. Now, almost 100 years later, Monsieur Chamot’s vision continues. From first, to the last touch, there is history in the making of every pair of Le Chameau Boots. The current production is still based on Claude Chamot’s original mix, producing soft, supple and durable rubber which forms the basis of all Le Chameau welly boots. Proudly made by several generations of 'maître bottiers', a highly technical role which requires upwards of nine months of intensive training, they take great pride in setting the standards for the production of their rubber boots Every single rubber boot that is produced is also tested to ensure that it is 100% waterproof. Each boot is placed into a water bath and air is pushed into the boot to ensure they leave the workshop waterproof and leak free.
