These boots were comfortable from the time I first put them on. In addition I’ve been volunteering at a Christmas tree lot this week and they were the perfect thing to keep my feet dry while I was on my feet for several hours. The toebox is spacious and. The soul was thick enough to keep me dry and safe on a rain select parking lot.

I have high arches and insteps so these boots are very hard for me to get on and off but fit well once they're on - I'm trying to figure out if going up 1/2 size will make a difference or maybe a different Blundstone style (good info on their website) but am hesitant to try again.

I am over the moon, happy. The right boot back was cutting into my calf a bit, but by day 2 that had really subsided. By day 3 these became the most comfy shoes I own. And they are warm, too!

Fit true to size (I sized up a half-size like I do in sneakers) and comfortable right out of the box. Although from experience in breaking in a pair of Ariat paddock boots, I will wear them with a pair of thick socks around the house for a day or two to help soften the leather that rubs the front and back of my calf and also whenever I wear them. Order the 510s as well in a 7 and those were too small. These, the 558s, and the 510s looked identical to the naked, uneducated eye. I'm with a previous reviewer, Blundstone should list details of what makes each numbered boot style unique.

i’d been eying these for a while and finally took the plunge. I’m normally an 8 US but my feet are wide so I went with the 8.5. The boots were comfortable from the start and they look great. This morning I took a long walk in them with my dog and they were still comfortable. I live in Vermont so I need boots that are weatherproof and have good traction. Hard to find in a boot that also looks good. These are perfect!

Great Boots! They are very comfortable. I’m usually 7½ US in boots and these were small so I exchanged them for the size 8 and they fit good, a bit Big but I use the second pair of insoles and they fit great. I hope they last many years!

I learned about these boots from a Wirecutter article and decided to put them on my Christmas list. Surprise! I got a pair as a present and they fit and feel great. They are stylish enough to wear on a nice outing (when such a thing is appropriate again) and durable enough for every day.

These are really well made boots with a very comfortable sole. I would have loved to keep them. Sizing was the issue. I wear an 8 in sports shoes. I mostly wear Keens in a 7.5. My feet are wide at the ball, so I often wear a wide width, but just as often a wide is too wide for my foot. The first pair I bought was AU 5.5 US 8.5 (half sizes are wide) - and the second was AU 6.5 US 9.5. The 5.5 was small on my foot. The 6.5 fit but was too snug all around for comfort. They did start to ease a bit, but it felt like they would never be truly comfortable. So I have returned them.

I purchased these nine months ago and they are so amazing. perfect comfort and seriously get better with each and every wear. I wear them 5 days a week and they are the best boots ever! I purchased a size 3 and wear a USA womens 6.

I am normally a solid 8.5 US, 39 EU, and ended up ordering the equivalent of a 9 (Aussie 6). If you're normally in between sizes (ie. are a half-size like me (8.5), order up to the next full size shoe. Blundstones half sizes are ONLY different in width (the half sizes are the wider versions). These come with additional in-soles as well that make the boot fit even better for people that are between sizes. Super happy with the 9's.

These are very comfortable boots. I wear thinner and mid weight socks in these so would recommend sizing up a 1/2 size if you want to wear thicker socks. Many compliments when I wear them.

These are great for snowy days when I need to head into work. Comfortable enough that I’ve sometimes just worn them all day at the office.

I’m very happy with my new Blundstones. I needed a boot that would work with orthotics and they fit the bill with their removable inner sole. Because of the orthotics I bought 8.5 instead of my usual 7.5 and they’re perfect. Right out of the box they were fine for a full day. Hoping they last as well as they’re supposed to.

I first bought the higher ankle style Blundstone's but wasn't happy with them. Returned them and got the lower ankle style and I am way happier! I wear a size 7.5 to 8 and I ordered the size 8 and they fit perfect. I have just the right amount of room in the front of the shoe for my toes. They also came with an extra insole to take up a little more space inside the shoe (I do have narrow feet) and that insole was just what I needed. I am really happy with these shoes. They are a classic style and as the saying goes "you get what you pay for". These shoes will last! I'm already looking to get another pair in a different color!
