Russell is now offering two of its bench made classics, the Zephyr, (the easy-on/easy-off zip up boot), and its Premier Chukka, in dressy alligator versions for customers who want a more elegant look for business and social wear. Beautifully grained alligator in tan, black or cigar (a rich brown), is tastefully combined with the finest imported calfskin leathers for that executive look. Zephyr and Chukka models are both equipped with super light weight Aspen Gumlite soles and are both fully lined in buttery soft glove tanned leather for ultimate comfort.
If you like Russell moccasin style footwear but want to make a strong statement about yourself, these handmade stepped up offerings should do the job nicely. To quote Larry Chesney, Managing Editor of Sporting Classics Magazine, “If you like wearing Russell boots in the field, you’ll get a double kick out of wearing these handmade ‘up-town’ models at the office or soiree.

Following the hurricanes of 2006, when uncounted thousands of alligators died, alligator leather has become scarce and extremely expensive. The price of alligator leather jumped more than 100% in the last year, thus we are forced to raise the price of these two models.
