Eh, not so thrilled with the durability. The leather is thin and stretched over some kind of other material, which my son wore right through. Very disappointed for a kids boot that cost US$109. While these were stylish looking, they just didn't last. And I hate to admit, but these were his second pair, and the same thing happened to the first. :(

If you're a woman who wears US 5-5.5, these boots are for you! They even allow a little room to spare for thick, winter socks. Perfect year-round boots that are stylish yet rugged. May need some breaking in, as they were a little stiff upon the first wear, but otherwise they seem like they'll age well and stand the test of many adventures.

If you are a womens 5 to 5.5, these are the Blundstones for you! Width is spot on (medium), there's almost no arch support, but Blundstone provides nice insoles, and they still have a bit of wiggle room in the toe box so you can wear thick socks. Small observation - the overall boot seem slightly flimsier than the "adult" version - the sole is lighter and less rugged. But overall I'm super happy to have found a pair that actually fits me - an adult 6 is just TOO big!

My son loved them and wore them everyday for four months. They are completely shredded after four months of hardcore mountain/country boy play (He drags his toe on the ground while riding a dirt bike and things like that). We are buying the next size.

The quality is tremendous in first wearing. My four-year-old can pull them on and off himself and with the shoe inserts that come with them we could buy a size and a half up and get longer wear out of them. He wears them every day and doesn't want to take them off when he comes inside. They are great adventure boots.

If you are a short adult female with small feet (size 5.5) who struggles with ankle boots hitting you at the correct height - BUY THESE in a kids AU 3 I am 5'1" with long torse and short bowed legs - aka: "ankle" boots always hit me at a terrible spot on my calves and rub - looks bad and feels terrible! My optimal size is 5.5 in adult US sizing (between a 5-6 depending on the shoe/brand) and I bought BL565 boot in Kids size AU 3 (US Big Kid 4-4.5) in Rustic Brown and sizing was PERFECT. I have a pinch of room to wear with my mid-heavy weight Smartwool socks in the winter but can also wear with thin cotton socks in spring/early fall. I have had this pair of boots for 5 years and wear them almost daily for 8 months out of the year and love to go on 5-6 mile walks in them, and they are still in excellent shape (considering they are children's shoes which are generally not made to last). I do have some fraying at the top of the synthetic stretchy fabric side panel bit on one shoe and that's it. Again, pretty impressive for a kids shoe over 5 years with almost daily outdoor use. Only downside - if you are someone who needs arch support, these have essentially zero. I should try to see if I can fit an insert in these because after walking 4-5 miles, I do notice the lack of arch support. Looks like Zappos only currently stocks some of the kids Blundstone boots in Big Kids sizing (at this time (3/6/23 I only see the kids "BL531" in black, comes in a Big Kids AU 3). Hoping Zappos will eventually restock them in this rustic brown so I can buy a replacement pair in the next few years here. I am never going back to adult ankle boots now that I know this hack - they finally hit at an appropriate spot so they aren't uncomfortable like other ankle boots and actually look good!

My daughter with tiny feet is headed off to college next week in the Pacific Northwest. She has been wanting these boots but the adult sizes were more than she wanted to spend. She wears approx a women’s size 5. The kids 3-3.5 is perfect fit and she LOVES everything about them.

This is the third pair of “Blunnies” I have purchased for my daughter. It’s our go-to boot for the fall/Christmas timeframe. They last and last, especially if you care for them with a little saddle soap and lederbalsam. I have kept each pair and will be passing them down.

Finally some cute little boots for small feet! Hey, I'm a size 4.5. Sometimes I win, most of the time I lose. But if you have tiny footsies, check these out! They look great, are comfy, not expensive, and most of all, are cool.

I am a small adult (size 5 adults) and bought these for myself for a summer barn chore boot. They are comfortable and easy on/off but the insole doesn't have much cushion. Aside from lack of cushion, my main complaint is that they soak up water like a sponge. One walk through dewy morning grass and my socks are wet. I've oiled the boots to no avail so far; am going to try beeswax next.

my young son has been wearing Blundstone boots for years and he loves them. He beats them up and they can take it. The perfect footwear for active kids!

I got the wrong size at first bc my kid’s foot is on the wider side (size up for wide feet)! Also keep in mind that a smaller insole is provided so hopefully these can be used for at least a year.

Love these Blunnies! My feet are too small for adult in the Blundstone (women’s 5-5.5). Anyway tried the big kids and boom, they’re excellent.

if you wear a womens size 5-5.5 then try the blundstone kids BL565 in size au 2. these worked great for me! I’d wanted blundstone forever but even the smallest adult size was too big. I tried various insoles and inserts but they still felt too roomy. I almost convinced myself the size au 3 would work with thick socks because I didn’t want to wait for yet another shipment but I’m so glad I did! these fit well and have just enough room to stretch and conform to my feet. finally a slip on boot that’s cute and stylish and comfortable for school drop offs, playing at the park, running errands, etc.

5-5.5 (women's). Couldn't find my size (women's 5-5.5) in the adult collection. Kids size 3 is perfect for me. The color is a bit darker than my friends' tho.

These boots are really nice. I am an adult who wears kids sizes. The boots look like they would be heavy, but they are super light weight. The hole at the top is a bit narrow, you need the tabs to help pull them on. Once on they fit great, my feet are a little wide and these accommodate that well. Have only worn them a couple days, but so far really glad I bought the boots. Well worth the money.
