The Modern Chukka represents a thoughtful convergence of heritage craftsmanship and contemporary barefoot design. Anchored by a striking birch berry sole—an artistic collaboration with Metis creator Kaija Heitland—this ankle boot marries traditional moccasin construction with chukka proportions. Rendered in full-grain nubuck leather with a 5" shaft and front lacing, it delivers both structural integrity and the responsive ground feel essential to natural movement. The leather-lined interior and premium materials create a refined aesthetic suited to refined occasions and everyday wear alike. A 5-inch shaft. Lace-up closure. Crafted from full-grain nubuck leather uppers with leather linings and a rubber birch sole. Maintain with gentle spot cleaning using mild soap and a soft cloth.
