Histori
Beatle Shoes is a direct descendant of Chelsea shoes, but it has more pointed legs and a central stitching suture that runs from ankle to toe, and flamenco shoes, from where his Cuban heel originated. The Beatle Shoes originated in October 1961, when British musicians John Lennon and Paul McCartney spotted Chelsea boots while roaming the London shoe company Anello & Davide, and consequently were assigned four pairs (with the addition of Cuban heels) to The Beatles, to complete their new suit image after they returned from Hamburg.
Beatle Shoes were very popular with rock bands and artists during the mid-1960s but began to decline during the 1970s. The boots saw a spike in popularity during the punk movement in the late 1970s and early 1980s but again began to decline throughout the 1990s. During the late 2000s and early 2010s, boots have seen a steady popularity spike.
