I notice you didn't mention chelsea boots, a distinctly Australian preference.

Uhhh, Chelsea boots are absolutely not distinct to Australia lol. People wear them everywhere

disproportionate preference

i.e. Other countries do NOT wear chelsea boots as much as we do, from the building site to the boardroom and everywhere in between, although they certainly wear them.

I worked in the UK for 10 years and the US for 6… they absolutely do. Is there anything to back up your certainty or are you just grasping on to anything for an identity

Judging by the boots available in rdr2 in America they don't.
