Shoes feel very light. Not the best arch support (for my flat feet) but pretty comfortable. I could wear them all day if I had to. I usually wear size 7 but got an 8. and with the included insoles and thick socks, the fit was perf.

Per husband, they fit great, very little need to break in. Really likes the way they look with jeans.

Great upgrade from my 10 year old 500s. Nicer look but still barn sturdy. I added a pair of Aetrex insoles

I absolutely love my Blunnies! The leather is soft, the boot has good structure and I wear them with any thickness of sock, usually Smartwool and they are super comfy out of the box. I now understand the hype, yes they are worth it! I find them easy to take on/off with the pull tabs and goring on the sides. I wasn't sure about what size to buy, I'm usually a 10 in boots but I went with my EU 40 size and that equals a women's 9.5. Perfect fit! I recommend looking at the Blundstone size chart on their website for comparison. I will be wearing these for many years to come.
I'd also recommend:
Converse, Dansko, Ecco, Keen, Ugg

Without the additional foot pad, it was too loose; with the pad it was too tight. I kept them on inside the house hoping I'd grow to like them and find them comfortable but they were starting to hurt my feet. So disappointed because I do love Blundstone.

These are comfortable, though I haven't yet worn them for a long period of time. I ordered a half size up, which was the right call. I normally wear a 9 wide, so getting half size up helped with these boots. The leather didn't wrinkle yet, which is also a plus.

These would have been great if Zappos would’ve sent the right size! They sent a 51/2 (us 81/2) when it should have been a 6(us 9) too bad they are cute boots

These are great, but they run big! I am normally always a 91/2 in boots sometimes a 10 but a 91/2 in these were huge! Had to exchange for a 9 hoping that will be fine with thick socks. Other than that they are great looking and comfy.

Ordered my usual size and am pleased with the fit and comfort. May have to add arch insole if wearing all day as the arch is a little flatter than I need. Toe box is very comfortable, plenty of room to wiggle toes without going a half or size up from my usual size, plus they don't make my large feet look even bigger.

I love Blundstones. I took them out of the box and hiked 4 miles. They feel great, no need to break in. They definitely run short but that may be the size conversion. I wear a US 6.5 and these 4.5 Blundstones are a tad short, but fine. Thank you Zappos for the fast shipping?.

I wear these shoes seriously every other day. They’re ridiculously comfy and I can wear them for hours. I’m a 7.5 and I sized up to an 8.

I am between a 9.5 and a 10. I originally ordered the 9.5 and my toe was hitting the front. Returned for a 10 and they are perfect. They were a little stiff at first but by mid-afternoon they felt great. Just the right amount of support. They pretty much feel like I am wearing sneakers. Very happy with my purchase.

I love this boot, just love. Good sizing and width, quite good arch support. My insteps are very high, making this boot exceedingly difficult to put on, even with a shoehorn, and doubly difficult to get off. With reluctance, because they are fine once on, I have to return them--not for any issue with the boot, but because of the anatomy of my instep.

beautiful boots but to narrow for a wide foot or high instep. They only come in Medium width. Bought them because we had tried on a broken-in pair which were a great fit but the new boots are tight.

Been wanting a pair of Blundstone's for a while. Ordered several pairs (sizes and styles) only to return them, some were too short in length, some were too high on the ankle and rubbed my skin, one rubbed at the heel, went a size up my feet were swimming. After reading reviews I finally called Blundstone to figure out what was I doing wrong, at $200 I want to get it right as I will have them forever. Ended up going with my normal size of 6.5, BL558 Classic 550 hit perfect, not to short, not to long, no rubbing on the heel or ankle. Kind of like Goldilocks ... they were just right! I usually wear them with crew socks, just makes them more comfortable. They are great with leggings, jeans, super all around shoe. At that price point I'm glad I did my research, they are worth every penny

Zappos recommended 6.5 in Blundstone. Half sizes indicate wide fit, not length. According to Blundstone, these shoes do not stretch lengthwise and if any parts of the boot will rub in the wrong places like the crown, go the next size up for a slip-on vibe. A forefinger should easily fit in the back of the foot for comfort. I wear 6 Women’s in Frye Harness 12R boots, and the 6.5 women’s Blundstones fit like a glove. The leather is soft, but I am concerned that the 6.5 will cut the back of my feet. You can't re-sole these puppies, so be prepared to realize the sustainability of these boots. They are cute. Take good care of them, so they last a long time.
