Thought on rubber Chelsea boots ?
I want to buy black Chelsea Boots but I stepped down when I learnt how quick they crease.
I found a 100% rubber one but don't have the knowledge about style and sustainability.
Thanks guys.

Rubber is also going to wear out. I suppose it won't really crease tho if that's something you really want to avoid
shoes are gonna crease/bend/fold/show wear tho
These are going to feel awful. The reason people use leather and canvas is that they breathe. You're trapping all your foot swear in these and you'll hate it
Embrace that clothes change as you wear them! Otherwise you actually can't wear anything
Don't worry about the creasing imo
Just get a pair of shoe trees to help reduce creasing (Nordstrom rack has nice ones for $20 if you're in the US)
Why are we fearful of creases?
I feel like aged leather is going to look a heck of a lot better than aged rubber
rubber is gonna be less breathable than leather
you will get veeeeeeery sweaty feet
and socks
just get some nice calf chelseas if you want minimal creasing
good calf will microcrease
Get some roughout or suede if you don't want creasing. But at the end of the day, leather creases. It's normal. You don't look at your fingers and think they're ugly because you can see creasing at the joints.
Thanks for your answer guys
