These are my second pair of Blunnies. My first pair lasted 10 years. I imagine these will last that long, too. They're extremely comfortable. They're waterproof. Well made. The leather lining is a nice bonus that my old ones didn't have. It's not fully lined in leather; the front half of the boot is lined with some sort of microfiber wicking material. That's not a complaint. I imagine Blundstone figured this way is better than a full leather lining. Note that the 1/2 sizes really aren't half sizes. They're the wide version of the whole size. So a 10.5 is really a 10 Wide.

My last pair of Blundstones were great boots, well made, and very, very long lasting. My most recent pair has not lasted one year. The leather cracked and ripped and the soles have ripped off at the toes. I work on a farm and use boots hard, so if you are buying them for a good looking pair of boots, go for it, but if you are looking for long wearing value (what Blundstones used to offer) look elsewhere. At some point production of these switched to China from Australia, the quality suffered, and the price rose. Bummer.

I ordered these recently and received the wrong size and the return was practically effortless. They are true to size (a 5.5 is a women's 8). If you want to wear them with a thicker sock, however, you may want to order a half size up. It did take me a couple of days to break them in, but I love 'em.

Had a pair of 500's years back, and was very happy with them. Unfortunately, the soles delaminated on them a bit too early. I gave up on this brand until I saw the 558 and thought I would try again. No regrets there. These are just like 500's but with premium, full-grain leather outer that can take a shine, and the lining is sumptuous glove leather. The soles seem to be better attached than my old Aussie-made pair. Waterproof all the way around. Comfortable, plenty of toe room, and I get compliments besides. 5 stars.

I love my Blundstones! They are the 2nd pair I have owned. Very comfortable and sturdy. I have to wear an orthotic and they accommodate them easily. True to size and you can literally wear them forever. They last a really long time.
