These boots were comfortable from the moment I put them on. I was able to walk around the city without getting any first-time-wearing blisters. I did put thin shoe inserts for an added layer of comfort and support, but it\'s not a necessary addition. I would say they run true to size. I originally ordered size 9 US at the suggestion of an earlier review, but they were too large. I highly recommend these as an everyday, fall through winter shoe.

These boots fit like a glove, very true to size. Comfort is second to none; these are my new favorites and I will certainly be purchasing another pair when these are worn out.

I love my new Blundstone boots. I wear them every day. They fit great, seem true to size, look nice, slip on and off easily and don\'t feel too hot to me. They keep my feet dry, which is #1, because it rains 8 days a week in Seattle. ha!

These are pretty much as advertised: good quality, sturdy, comfortable for walking or standing. I find them true to size. I would prefer the elastic opening to be bigger; they tend to squeeze a bit just above the ankle.

My husband liked the Blundstone low clogs so much that I got these ankle high ones to try for his everyday shoes. He likes slip off shoes, but so many brands today look like bedroom slippers in public. These are very stylish and weather resistant; they look great. He had to get used to the side elastics, but the elastic loosens up and he learned a new skill. The pull tabs front and back are a nice touch. He Nik-waxed them, wears them every day and doesn't worry about our climate's effect on his shoes. A venerable and quality British product.

These are great boots. The only drawback is they run small for size. I always wear a size 7 in everything, but should have ordered the larger size in these as they only come full sizes. I thought that I just needed thinner socks. Wrong! Really, if they don't fit return for larger size.

Essential To Life - I am a Blundstone devote from way back. But I'm only on my second pair! Yes, that's how good these boots are. And comfy, yes. Cool looking, beyond. I have worn mine: while riding/while hiking/at work/out with skinny jeans, etc/ even on a friends mountain bike that required clip ins! I will never ever be without my Blunnies. And if they outsource them to China, it will break my heart.

These boots are very comfortable. I did not need to break them in. The leather lining, along with the elastic panels, makes them easy to get on and off. The fit is better than I expected. No heel slippage. I used the size conversion chart given. I wear US 10-1/2 this converts to Blundstone 9-1/2. I am very happy with them. Plus great service from Zappos.

Brilliant! 12 years ago a friend of mine recommended Blundstone to me, he swore they were the best all purpose kick-around boot out there. These boots are spot on for comfort and look good.

Just got these in the mail, a day after I ordered them. Thanks, Zappos! I normally wear an 11 in sneakers so I ordered a 9.5 AUS (10.5 US, according to Zappos) because I'd read from places that this boot is roomy; however, they were too short and way too snug with two pair of athletic socks, which I'd be using them with in winter. I later found out that Australian sizing is different from American. A 9 AUS and 9.5 AUS are the same length, but the half-size indicates that it's a wide fit; since these are unisex I'm assuming they are made slightly narrow in the medium to accommodate female feet; I'm a D or E width normally and I will be ordering the AUS 10.5 to get enough room; hopefully they are the right size. While I haven't worn them for much time at all, the boots are very light and well-made. They are also very handsome! I love the slight reddish hue of the leather, and that will only get better with age.

A sturdy, comfortable boot, these Blundstone are ideal for city life, particularly one like NYC , where at least part of our days are spent walking on the street.

Stylish, well engineered boot that's light enough to work or walk in all day. These boots need a break-in period of 1-2+ weeks as they are very form fitting, but after that they really work well and support better than other similar boots that I've worn over the years.

These Blundstones (BL550s) are awesome. I first saw them in Australia and didn't buy them until last month after stumbling across them on Zappos. They fit surprisingly well and are easy to take on and off. These are great for daily tasks (walking the dog, etc.). The only other thing I think I need to mention is that they are slightly "reddish" brown. Zappos delivered them the day after I ordered them!

I like these shoes a lot. What I like most are how light they are. Also, the cushion heel makes them very comfortable. Haven\'t gone through an Oregon winter yet, but so far, water just seems to roll right off of them.

I wanted a pair of boots that look nice, but that are also very water resistant, as I'm moving back to the island where it rains a lot. These boots are great and worth the money. I usually wear a ladies 8.5 (39 to 40)in a regular shoe and I have a narrow (A or AA) width. These fit like a B or maybe a C width. I first ordered the Australian size 6.5 but they were too short. I am happy with the size 7. They come with an additional insole which I am using and I have also added another three quarter length firm arch support insole. I wear fairly thick socks and the boots fit fine now. They are super comfortable. I have a herniated disk in my back, so I like the fact that these boots have a special shock absorbing sole. Quality is impressive, sole is rugged. Easy on and off. Nice.

Very comfortable and warm. Looks like a nice leather boot while being waterproof. Nice not to have to worry about having wet feet without having to sacrifice style!

As a Blunnie devotee, I have found that this style holds up as an equally comfortable yet slightly heavier version of the classic Blundstone boot. They are true to size and fit like most unisex boots; close enough in the heel, but a little wiggle room up front.

Great work boots. I got them a little bit big and put arch supports in them since they really don't provide much themselves. Man, are they comfortable now. And I feel like my feet are so safe in them! Go ahead! Drop a hammer on my foot! I don't think they are the greatest shoe for long walks, however. They are good for being on your feet all day, but I've walked several miles in them and I kind of slid around a little bit. I'm between an 8.5 and a 9 (womens) and I got the 9. The 8.5 was a little snug. I look forward to putting on some puffy smartwool socks and wearing them this winter. I think they will keep me warm. I might even put that mink oil on them to try to waterproof them. Anyway, I love my boots.

The Blundstones are good boots. They fit true to size and are very comfortable. They are also surprisingly easy to clean if they get dirty, all the crud just rinses right off. Be aware that they do need some breaking in: they rubbed the back of my calf for the first couple of weeks of wear.

I had put off buying these boots for a long time because of the price and that was a misake. These are great! Super comfortable and will be great in the bad weather. They seem true to size for a women's size 8. I love them.

Love these boots. This is only my 2nd pair of this model; the first pair lasted almost 9 years! Comfortable right out of the box, wear like iron. They look good with jeans and khakis. Wearable from early fall throughout early spring. No brainer.

Wow! I've liked the Blundstone look for years, so when it came time to replace my daily work shoes, I bought a pair of the 558s. Again, wow! Great fit and comfort, durability is too early to determine, but from all indications they're made to last. They even work for my business casual dress code requirement. So the 558s came in black, now I'm considering the classic 550s in the original brown. The fit is spot on for my slightly wide feet. The very first time I put them on they felt a little tight in the heel; however, the heel cup conforms to your heel as needed and are perfect. Yes, I will be buying more in the future, no doubt.

I bought the boots to go to Burning Man this year so they got hard wear in the desert for a week. They\'re well made and the soles are very comfortable, but the location of the elastic on the sides was challenging and the seam kept hitting my ankle, which unfortunately made the shoes unwearable eventually.
