I found these boots run true in size. I'm usually a 9-9.5 and went with my bigger size. The boots look great with literally everything. Very happy with my purchase.

I ordered my never fail size 7.5 in womens (AU 4.5) and they were a half size too small. Not a super uncomfortable fit but my toes were right at the top and when I walked in them I knew that it was an easy half size up fix. I exchanged for the women’s size 8 (AU size 5) and they were perfect. I love that I can wear these boots with just about anything and could walk in them for hours (vs other Chelsea style boots that offer little to no support and cause foot ache over time). I would suggest ordering a half size up from your usual.

GREAT Blundstones ! My 2nd pair - fit perfect with lightweight socks, if you plan on wearing with thicker socks you'd need to go up a 1/2 size for sure.

It is an incredible boot of super quality, exquisite design, great comfort, genuine leather, it is worth the price, I enjoy it very much, the only bad thing is that it did not arrive in its original box, because it was damaged in the shipment

These are the best shoes ever. Added a drugstore insole and climbed a mountain in them. After about a year you should recondition the leather.

Love these! Wore inside the house for a few hours just to confirm the comfort. Think they will break in easily! They are not even terribly stiff around the ankle.

Of interest. The first pair I ordered came in a plain brown shoebox with nothing inside but the boots. Wish I had taken a pic but had already sent back for an exchange. This second pair came in a Blundstone shoebox with extra inserts, care instructions and warranty info. I sized up 1/2 a size and they fit perfectly! Wondering if the first order was counterfeit???

I think these Blundstones will be awesome when they are the right size. I normally wear a 7.5 and in reading the reviews, they state "true to size" so that's what I ordered. Had to send back. Unfortunately, I ordered them for a trip and the new pair won't arrive in time to take em.

Very nice boots. Originally ordered in 10 but too short and had to return and order 11. Super cute with skinny jeans.

The size is great. The fit is great. They were comfortable right out of the box and they look GOOD. I waited a long time on buying Blundstones and I'm so glad I got these ones.

The fit is great, I like the color I chose, the style works for how I use them - they work very well as my work shoes in the vineyard.

Initially bought 8.5 women’s- my usual size. They were too short in length, however. Exchanged for 9 and they fit perfectly. Plenty of room in toe box.

Love these Blundstones. I wear a size 7.5 in every brand of shoe I know, so that is what I ordered, but had to send them back and get an 8. Makes sense since they say that going up a 1/2 size doesn't change the length, so an 8 was perfect. I did put some insoles in them and make them a little less roomy inside. They feel lightweight and look awesome. I love the walnut color.

Totally worth it!! I tried the 500 and the 550 and prefer the fit of the 550 ( a little snugger and cushier ) I ordered to fit my slightly larger food, and with the included insole both shoes felt great from day one. Stiff as expected, but breaking in very easily.

These boots are quite an investment! Was worried at first that my gift to my son wouldn't work out. It took some time for them to break in - but they did and he reports they just keep getting better and better. So stick with these.

My larger Right foot is slipping a bit in the heel. I am wearing them around the house trying to soften the leather. They are a bit stiff. The smaller left foot loves the boot, very interesting this boot. I believe they are the correct size, as I’ve tried several others made by Blundstone and these were the most comfortable. I have a size 11 USA foot. I purchased an 8 AU. I have a narrow, AA foot and usually have to find the best fitting size M as there are not many narrow boots. I usually wear boots in winter and always with a wool sock. I am wearing a mid weight wool by Smartwool in a knee height that seems to be working well with the boot. These are very fitted and don’t bunch up while pulling on my boot. I purchased them several years ago on Zappos.

I wear an 11 in 95% of my boots/shoes and this is no exception. Fit is right on even with a winter sock (yes, it is a bit looser with a light weight sock, but nothing an insole would not address). The only reason for the 4 stars in style, is well... they aren't exactly the most style forward. They are what they are - I was looking for what they are and they delivered on that.

Got them in the mail today and love them! Immediately wore them shopping for about two hours. Super comfy right out of the box. There is a spot that rubs on the back of both of my heels but I feel like that will be solved once they are broken in. I'm normally a size 10, but have wide feet so decided to get the 10.5 and it was a good choice. I wouldn't call them narrow, but if you got flippers like me I would def do a half size up.

This is a very versatile pair of boots. They are extremely comfortable after break in and I can wear them on camping trips and around town. I have done some light hiking in them which worked out great. The soles offer a lot of cushion and the insoles can be doubled up for more support or a better fit. I have gotten these extremely dirty and they wipe clean super easy. All of my other shoes have been pouting in the corner for about a month now.

I got these after getting the black ones (which have worn out so nicely). These brown ones were a lot more comfortable than the black ones, for some reason, right out of the box. The brown is a nice color; goes well with khakis, jeans, anything olive green, and even greys.
