Mark Albert Boots was launched on Kickstarter in Fall 2016 as the brainchild of a 19 year old looking to disrupt the market for Men’s Chelsea Boots. All Mark Albert Boots are handcrafted using Goodyear welt construction in the small town of Somerset, Pennsylvania by a partner boot factory that has been operating since 1948. Since the successful Kickstarter, Mark Albert has expanded the line drastically, utilizing archived patterns and styles from the factory in Somerset that were left to collect dust and reinventing them into contemporary styles with a focus on comfort and functionality. Each style is painstakingly created from the finest leathers available in a process that takes over 100 steps. We offer a full line of Mens and Ladies styles to suit every occasion from the office to the hiking trail.
