I bought these for my boyfriend because I heard many good things about Blundstones. He liked the fit and how light they were while still having good arch support.

Great boot. Incredibly comfy! Wow! New to this brand and love it! Very true to size. You get what you pay for. More pricey yes...but worth every penny for comfort, health, and longevity. Yes. Great buy! Enjoy! And we love Zappos!

I bought my first pair of B'stones in '04...I even bought the wrong size (non-US). I still have them and wear them all the time, but, alas, a better fitting brown pair was in order. with proper care, these boots will last forever.

I bought these boots for my husband as a Christmas gift. He loves them - he says that this is the type of boot that he has been wanting for years. They look great and he says that they are very comfortable. He's been wearing them as a winter boot (not in deep snow) in Montreal.

Great looking shoe and can be used for knocking around and going out to dinner. Used fro extensive walking on recent trip and very comfortable and supportive...even when compared to running shoes. Highly recommended.

These are my 2nd pair of Blundstone boots. I'm extremely hard on shoes in general and my first pair lasted over 3 years. I finally wore out the soles. The boots are incredibly comfortable. However, as with any good leather product they stretch, a lot. Don't be surprised if they feel very snug the first couple days you wear them. Once they break in they become your favorite shoes.

These are my husband's second pair of Blundstone's. They are great boots, he wears them everywhere. They lasted three years with steady wear and as soon as they wore out, he bought a second pair. They are true to size and worth the money.

Awesome shoes. I first saw these on a guide in a medieval city in Italy. She said they were the only shoes that provided superior traction and comfort on wet cobblestone at mind boggling inclines. I train horses...lots of running, climbing and trekking on uneven footing. These shoes are great.

I love this boot, the leather is softer than the regular leather finish and breaks in after about 10days of wear. They are awesome for traveling, I can wear to work and out at night and walking my dogs... if I had to pack one pair of shoes, these are them!

Great shoes, per usual with Blunnies. I thought they would be flat leather brown, but they are more like nubuck. Which is nice. Much more support on the rugged models like this than the old 500's. I usually wear 11.5 US, and wear 10 Australian in Blunnies. A little rounded in the toe for looks, but well worth it.

My new boots are a little tough to get on and off for this old guy. I'm not as flexible as I used to be. I suspect that with more wearing they will loosen up a bit. I am purchasing a boot jack to assist removing the boots. They are very nice boots but a little tight.

The boots are nice looking and seem to be made really well. Shipping was a breeze and super fast. But I think they're just not quite right for my shape of foot? Something is a bit weird. They were loose without the extra included insole in there, but when I added those, my feet started getting hotspots in certain locations. I will keep them and hopefully they will wear in a bit, comforming more to the shapes of my feet better.

Love these boots but definitely size up if you're on the fence. I was hoping mine would stretch but they didn't enough, so I'm forced to wear thin socks but I don't regret getting blundstones. Very comfortable and practical. Can be dressed up or down.

After reading reviews I first ordered an 8 and 8.5. I am a true 8 womens. Both sizes my toes touched the end of the shoe and it's definitely true that the 8.5 only makes the shoe wider, not longer. I went ahead and ordered a size 9 but when it came, the right shoe was significantly larger then the left. It's as if it was used to try on in a store. Wider around the ankle and overall fit and the packing was out of the insides of the shoes. I am going to give this one more try and order another 9. All in all, I would say definitely size up 1 full size to get the correct fit.

I love them! I am a size 12(45) but I wish I had did a quick search about the sizing as they do feel slightly bigger than my 12. Dare I say, they'd fit better if I were a size 13. I put in the extra insole which helped immensely but I can't help but feel like there is still a little more room than I'd prefer. In looking down at my feet, they appear quite proportionate to my body/size, but on the inside, there is that little bit of extra room. It's odd, and I am getting over it, but I am curious as to what a size 11 1/2 might have fit like. My next pair, I intend on finding out.

My first time trying Blundstones. I love the look but these were just too stiff for me. I wore them around the house for a few hours with socks and didn’t like the inconvenience of pulling it off and on. Maybe it would have loosened up a lot more but I have other boots that required far less breakin time, and I didn’t totally need these living in NorCal.

I really like the feel of the boot. I had some trouble finding the correct size and eventually went down another 1/2 size W instead of the correct size in the normal width.

They take a long time to break in especially if you have a high instep. I'm still not giving up on them. I'm at week 3 and they are getting more comfortable but still not completely there.

Well made, stylish boots. They are hard to get on, although I bought some EZ Glider socks, which helped. I have a high instep so I am having that area stretched by a cobbler and that should also help with getting them on. The grey Nubuck is a great alternative to black leather for a more casual look.

Love my new Blundstone boots. Was worried about sizing but went with my usual size 7.5 and they fit true to size and have enough room for a good sock. These boots are very comfy and stylish. They are a little hard to get on and off at first but hoping they will get easier with time. I would 10/10 recommend Blundstone boots!
