    Great boots. Great fit. They come with an extra this insert that reduce a half size to make sure they fit correctly. I wear a 9.5-10 typically and am very happy with the Australian size 8.

    I've been wearing Blundstones for over 12 years as my primary work boot and as casual shoes. I originally wore the 500's but for the past few years I've been wearing the 550's. I can't say enough how much I love these boots. Durable, comfortable and stylish, what more could you ask for? And the slip on and off easily to boot! I also have wide feet but the leather is supple enough to conform to my foot without any discomfort.

    It is clear that these guys have been making these shoes for a long time. They are super comfortable and very well put together. I've tried this style made by other brands and the Blundstone has refined their product way beyond the competition. Everyone should have a pair of these.

    My husband and I have worn Blunnies for over 10 years. He has steel toe/plate as well for work. I wear these October through May except through the deepest snow or if I will be outside for an extended period. I have very hot feet, and they breathe well. They will also take an orthotic and are the same shape as real human feet - Imagine! I wear them for all but the dressiest occasions. I wear a women's size 5 and my husband a size 12 shoe (3 & 11 in the Aussie sizes). If your foot is very narrow, this is not the shoe for you, but for all others - grab them! Very lightweight.

    from Oregon

    Been wearing this boot for about a year and a half on pretty much a daily basis. It's very comfortable, and very well constructed. The elastic gore hardly shows any sign of stretching, and the sole still has plenty of life. I us a stand-up desk at work, so I'm on my feet all day in these. No problems at all. Great for yard work and an occasional easy walk in the woods.

    From picking Shiraz out on the vineyard under the blazing sun in Southern Australia to the snow driven, salty streets of a NYC winter, these boots are as solid as they get. Comfy, stylish and versatile.

    These are the boots I've been looking for. The best way to figure out your size is to go to the Blundstone web site and print out their sizing sheet and go from there. I recommend the 550 over the 500. Worth the difference in comfort, and they are comfortable. Look great as a dress boot for work and play. My favorite shoe right now. Probably going to get a pair in black.

    The perfect slip on winter boot. Just the right amount of function and style to dress up or dress down. The leather is supple, and the added packet of wax to waterproof the shoe is easy to apply. The sole is rugged and grippy in snow and ice. The shoe also provides the right amount of shock absorption and stability. They are comfortable right out of the box and a nice pair of thick socks make these boots heaven for your feet. Very pleased with my purchase and don't regret the higher price tag. I anticipate wearing these shoes for years.

    It took me a while to find the right size. Thankfully, Zappos Customer Service made this extremely easy, too easy. These are very comfortable boots, not overly stylish, but functional, especially in Oregon. While they don't need to be broken in, I can't wait for them to get some character (i.e., scratches, scuffs).

    These boots are very comfortable, very well made, quality leather. Perfect for my home in the Northeast woods. They keep my feet nice and dry. These are my second pair - this time I went for the leather lining and extra insoles. Not bad looking either, I don't hesitate to wear them to town with better clothes.

    I have wanted a pair of these for a while. I ordered them on Thursday night and they arrived Friday. They were true to size, and immediately comfortable. They look great with anything. Since I have never owned a pair, I can't comment on the build issues cited by others. Mine were made in Vietnam, seem solid.

    Really beautiful shoe- the leather is soft and pliable, even for a double-leather boot. These are dressy, not too rugged, but eminently swanky. The sole is extremely tough, and they are comfortable enough to wear all day right out of the box. The downloadable Blundstone sizing chart (PDF) is very handy and worked well for me. I wear a size 45 Euro, and the 11 AU fit me perfectly well for a casual shoe.

    Very comfy right out of the box. I wear a size US 10.5 and it was recommended to go with Aussie 9.5, that\'s what I did and they fit perfect. The construction and quality is excellent, top grade. I usually wear custom hand made cowboy and riding boots so I\'m fussy about construction. I\'ve worn the Blundstone in wet and dirt, scuffed them, and they have cleaned up as good as new. A very good, go anywhere, do anything type of boot.

    Got these boots for my husband who wears them outside in the rain and mud, and they're working out great for him. Previous boots he has had (LL Bean slip-ons and other non-leather slip-on boots) have not lasted very long with him, but these look much more durable and comfortable. Definitely recommend them (I've worn my pair of Blunnies for years), and also Zappos with such quick service. Many thanks.
