This boot is super-naturally comfortable. I am a US size 11 and the AUS equiv (10?) fits just fine. The only caveat is that it is winter and I am wearing them with medium weight socks. If you were to wear them with thin socks, you could go down a 1/2 size.

Definitely order one size up if you opt for these Blundstone boots! After ordering them twice in different (wrong) sizes, I've decided they're over rated and high priced anyway. My family and friends raved about these boots so I decided to order a pair of Blundstone's for myself, in USA-8 medium, my usual size. I was looking for some sturdy pull-on boots, no laces. The first pair came way TOO SMALL so I returned them for a half size larger, USA-8.5, bearing in mind that I'd be wearing them with fall/winter socks. The replacement pair were still way TOO SMALL! The leather and stitching at top of my ankle felt very STIFF as if they were going to be painful to break in, so I decided to return them again. I suppose I could try a third time and order a FULL SIZE LARGER, however I'm done hassling with them. I'm going back to my Timberland boots which fit me like a glove the moment I tried them on.

I wish I could comment on the fit and comfort but the design of these boots was such that it was impossible to even get them onto my foot due to my high arches which make the top of my foot high as well. The short shaft of a chelsea boot is normally tight until you break it in but this was IMPOSSIBLE to get on at all, Had high hopes for this brand based on other's reviews.

The toe box was slightly short for my long toes. I think the next half size would work, but I found the interior of the rough on my skin (can't wear socks), so this boot is a pass.

If I was only reviewing on quality, I would rate these a five. I followed LLB's sizing recommendations and ended up with comically large boots. Enormous clown shoes, albeit well-made.

I'm still deciding if I like these. They've required some breaking in, which makes sense. I normally like to wear orthotics for my high arches, but even with going a half size up (I'm normally a US women's 8 but got a US women's 8.5) I had pain in the top of my arch when I wore orthotics. I also got some pretty uncomfortable blisters on my heels. So the jury is still out, but I love the look and hope they end up working for me.

I was a little disappointed with the quality. They seem to be put to their ok and the leather feels quality but the soles seem a little plastic like. I do have fairly high arches so these just don’t work for me at all. They are pretty flat. Super cheap insole, I would need to spend another $50 to $60 to get a pair of decent insoles to make these even close to comfortable.

This boot keeps my feet dry. They are not unattractive and I like that they have no shoelaces. I guess I'm just not a fan of any boot that is stiff. They are very clunky and I strongly recommend tall thick socks with them b/c the top of the boot is quite stiff and rubs on your calves which is quite painful without the right sock. But definitely better than wearing my sneakers or hiking shoes in the snow which is what I've done for the past 30 years or more.

The back of the shoe rubbed my heel -- but only on the right shoe. So, I'm going to return them. They were cute though.

The fit and size were good. I was disappointed in how long they lasted. I have heard how durable the brand is and I work outside landscaping in New England. THey only lasted a few months before they ripped. I still wear them but they look very shabby. I love the Chelsea style boot and have several pairs. I have a pair of Chacos that were half the price of these Blundstones and they outlasted them by 2 years.

I am normally a 9.5 women's, and a 7 in Blundstones. But these did not fit well, even adding inserts they just were not comfortable so I returned them. I find the unisex Blundstones kind of clunky, I have had much better luck with the Blundstones that are made specifically for women.

The length on these is so short. The width is nice and the boot itself is beautiful but there was no way these would ever be comfortable.

I love my Blundstone 510’s and was looking forward to having a similar pair in a different color. This style is advertised as having a few nicer details; what they don’t mention is that they are also much smaller. This pair looked and felt a full size smaller than my 510s. Great looking shoe, just be prepared sizes across Blundstone styles are not consistent at all.

The look of the book is lovely; it appears to be sturdy. However they are extremely difficult to put on/take off. I don't want to pay another $25 for the gadget that helps you remove them. The tabs aren't helpful enough. I tried using a shoe horn; still very difficult to get them off. The interior sole is hard; I'd like more cushion and support. After wearing them a while, my feet were sore. I'll look for something with a zipper next time.

These boots are well-constructed and very attractive - however, they are impossible to put on. I struggled and it was uncomfortable to deal with. I had to return them.

These boots are extremely hard to put on - they have no give - could not even fit a shoehorn into the back to assist with getting them on. They may be a beautiful boot but it's just nonsense trying to get them on.

I love my Blundstone Chelsea 500's. They are awesome. So I purchased the 585, tried on several pairs between sizes 5 1/2, 6 and 6 1/2. The sizing was so strange, but after humming and hawing in the store, decided to go with size 5 1/2 (the same size in my 500's) I wore them out of the store and within minutes my feet were screaming in pain. The boots are made very well but they just don't fit my feet correctly. It's like a completely different boot! For this style I suggest going into the store before purchasing.. and even then they may not be right until you walk outside. I have wider feet and wore thin socks. I'll be getting the stout blundstone in the 500 style, and returning these.

On the bottom of the boots it said 5 1/2. Only to measure them by my pair I bought from Blundstone, these were way too big. Very disappointing for me. The sizes are all wacky.

Okay, so I am a size 9 in every shoe I wear. I bought a 9 1/2 because the 9 was too small and I don't think the 9 1/2 was any bigger. A size 10 was huge. With all the positive reviews saying how comfortable they are, I had to give them a chance. Maybe I just needed to break them in Nope. I did not find them comfortable at all. The footbed was hard and I could not wear them all day. I couldn't wait to take them off. I do have high arches, so maybe that's the issue, who knows. But I just didn't find these "soooo comfortable" like everyone else. They did have good traction though. That, I did like about them.

After trying so many other boots from Born and other brands, these boots are the ones that fit perfectly! Easy to pull on and off, so comfortable, and really nice looking for all occasions.

I ordered these in my regular size (men’s 5/ women’s 8)because most of the reviews said true to size or runs big. They were too small so I returned them and ordered a half size up (5.5/8.5)Still too small and the right one felt smaller than the left. The top of the left was tight and made my foot fall asleep! Too bad I wore them and threw the box away. Super bummed.

I bought these after buying the BL063 in their AU size 5.5, which fit my US size 8.5D feet very well. These boots, on the other hand, were so much smaller, despite being exactly the same size, that I couldn't even get my slightly larger left foot into them. I don't understand there being THAT much difference in the two styles.
