Customer Reviews Blundstone BL1630 High-Top Chelsea Boot

wow. i could hardly get my foot into these boots! once in the fit felt true to size, although i could tell the heel cup was going to rub and give me a blister. I feel like blundstone should sell only boots that have been broken in. i'm not willing to suffer for months to get a comfortable boot!!

I ordered 7.5s which I normally wear, but they were painfully small. After limping around in thick hiking socks trying to break them in for a few days, I decided the chafing wasn't worth it. They're very light but I'm not sure what's up with the sizing.

I was so excited to receive these, but they are way too tight and almost impossible to pull on. Not worth the effort!

Sad to send these back, because I love the detailing and the more dressy look. My other Blundstones are 3 years old and still feel awesome, but after building our house in them they are pretty dirty and paint-stained. I still wear them casually but want a pair that can go to the office. These fit the bill looks-wise, but with my high arches and the small opening on the boots, they’re just too hard to get off and on. I could see myself injuring an ankle or pulling a muscle getting these off. Will stick with the originals.

These were SO hard to get on! I think I hurt my finger pulling the loops to get them on and then hurt my ankle trying to get them off. But when they were on, they fit and were cute. Sadly, I can't take 5 minutes putting shoes on and off.

The ankle hole was too small. I got one foot with incredible effort and pain in my hands as I forced it on in but my other foot has an old ankle injury that kicked up when trying to get my foot in. I abandoned effort. The one foot that made it in seemed to fit *inside* the shoe. Not sure if going up another size makes sense... But damn they're cute.

My daughter got these for me as a Christmas gift. She said everyone loves them, they are sooo comfy and her friends even go hiking in them. I suppose all these may be true AFTER you break the boots in. I have a relatively narrow foot and thin ankles and I had a hard time taking the boots off. Not only that but they felt so stiff I didn't want to even try to break them in. They were very pretty but back they went. Thank goodness for Zappos and their amazing customer service!

I ordered a US women's size 7 and was sent a US men's size 7. This is the first time I have ever had an issue with a Zappo's order.

These boots are very attractive on. However, I could barely get my foot in or out even with a shoe horn and I have narrow feet (I usually have to order shoes in narrow). I don't know how anyone with medium or wide feet could wear these. Being high-top they also hit me on the lower shin uncomfortably. The leather is also very stiff. People say it softens with time but I don't have patience with shoes that aren't comfortable right away. They felt a bit small in length also. I usually wear 8.5 and had to try a 9.

I couldn't even get my foot halfway into this boot. So sad.

I could not get this boot on without using a shoe horn... it was very frustrating. Once I had them on the leather on the inside of both feet kept buckling and was not comfortable. I returned and not sure if I'll seek out another model of the Blundstones. They don't appear to make them like they used to. I got married in my old pair but the soles finally disintegrated after 20 years.

Nearly impossible to get on. Then once they were on they felt stuff and uncomfortable. My classic blundstones have been perfect from the moment I put them on and I’ve had them for years. Returning this pair

Well they sent the wrong size boot and the wrong boot! How do you make that mistake!

These feel fake. I've bought them in the past. They used to be very comfortable and the leather felt nice. These feel like plastic and the sole has no cushion.
