John Elliott, a men's brand that's dedicated to bringing its consumers modern and elegant styles, recently set its sights on combat boot models.
Looking to adapt the usually chunky structure, John Elliott transformed the shoes for a more sleek aesthetic. This is generated by swapping out laces and other accents for a streamlined upper that carries high-end leather and suede throughout. With two different colorways available, John Elliott's offerings can be picked up in either an all-black or a light gray and black variation.
Although both have completely uniform looks, the former model is diversified with a slight accent of suede at the top -- giving the combat boots a softer appearance to satisfy John Elliott's goal in creating a product that's totally refined for the modern man who has an appetite for simplicity.
