Customer Reviews Blundstone BL1306 Dress Chelsea Boot

These are the most painful shoes I have ever worn. I have walked miles and even shoved bigger boots inside these Blundstones to try and stretch or break them in. They hurt my feet so much. I hate them. I have to now try to work them into some condition that I can wear them.

They are not true to size. I ordered a U.S. 10.5 and when it got here they were huge! I sent them back for a U.S. 10

Very bad construction on one shoe. Very low instep. Had to give them away to charity.

Zero break in period. US mens 10 was perfect. For reference, I wear Hoka 11 wide for running. Have worn these for over 6 and a half year before now replacing them with exact same style and size. Heals worn down and can't readily be fixed. This was after having walked a few thousand miles in the boots, mainly on sidewalks. Once news ones arrive I'll track down a cobbler who can figure out a workable fix maybe swap out the soles. Probably expensive to do but the uppers are still in great shape.

This is my second pair of this model (first bought in 2013) and I have 2 other colors in this boot. I love them! They wear well, are comfortable and good looking. Well worth the investment. They are stylish and can be worn to work or play.

True fit. Not what I was looking for.

This is my second pair of Blundstones. I also have the heeled boot in black. Love the fit and they are super comfortable - I can wear them all day with no issues. They do take a bit of breaking in, but worth the time.

Excellent boot. Very comfortable even wearing all day.

These boots are so lightweight, flexible, and versatile. I love them!

Very comfortable but did take a bit of breaking in. Has held up to almost daily wearing in every situation from hiking to working as a teacher. Looks good with summer dresses and winter pants. Buying a second pair now, 4 years later.

Still the best boots I've ever worn. Each pair I've owned have lasted more than 12 years. Expect the same of these.

My daughter absolutely loves her new boots! They’re comfortable and look adorable! Don’t hesitate to order these shoes! And a shout out to Zappos’ customer service team. They’re fantastic!!!

I initially purchased two sizes after reading mixed sizing reviews and am happy to report that both pair look exactly as pictured - brown, and not grey like some folks have experienced. I ordered an 11.5 (my usual) and a 11, went with the 11's. I agree with other reviewers who feel the half sizes only seem to add volume rather than length. For size reference, I'm consistently an 11.5 in Sperry, 12 in most casual sneaks. I first tried the 550 series but was in between sizes in those - 11 was too short, 11.5 was too sloppy. Happy to have found a sweet spot in these and found that I like the look of the squared toe even better. These boots are light weight and comfortable to walk in.

Love these shoes. These are my new go to for basically all fall and winter time. The shaft of the boot was somewhat difficult to get my foot through at first, but broke in with time. Can’t say enough good things about this boot

Fit was accurate to size (US 13).

I wear a 10 1/2 wide. regular width is uncomfortably tight. I ordered a 11, and it is plenty wide. I am very pleased with that. I put a thin foam Dr Scholls pad in the bottom just to pad the foot a bit more. Its a tiny snug with that, NOT too narrow. I love these boots

Great fitting shoe. Well made and a joy to wear.

LOVE these boots! Very comfortable. Broke them in quickly with one wear out the other night. I followed the recommendations of the other folks who reviewed the boot and bought one size smaller than I normally wear, and the fit is perfect. So they do indeed seem to run one size larger than what you what normally wear. Love the color and the rustic look of the boot and they are very comfortable.

Gets better with time. I love them

Stylish well made boots, love them

Great quality boot. I usually wear a size 8.5 men’s in most shoes such as Vans, Sanuks and Doc Martins. I ordered both the 1306 and 585’s in 8.5’s and they both fit true to size. It was a matter of which style I liked better. Both were equally comfortable and don’t seem to require a break in period. I ended up keeping the 1306 since they looked better to me.

Love this boot. Classic, rugged, fits true to size.

Great!

Great looking and feeling boot. I have a wide 10.5 shoe, the size 11 fit pretty well. I would not want to get anything smaller. Maybe I even could have used another half size up but I think these will loosen with time

I love these boots! They are comfortable and durable, and cute enough to wear dressed up or on a hike. I highly recommend!
