Wellington boots were originally based on the Hansen boots popular in the 18th century, commonly used in cavalry units. One day in 1817, the Duke of Wellington, who had been a cavalry officer, conceived the idea of improving the Hansen boots : using calfskin as a raw material, adding a layer of fabric on the inside of the original basis, not only to keep warm but also to fit the leg shape, and the boot was lowered to facilitate wearing and taking off.
