Great boots. Tried many different Blundstone styles and these were the winner. They run small. In all other styles 6.5 was too big and 6 was too small, but the 7 in these was perfect. Note that half sizes are only wider, not longer. These are super comfy and stylish, nice narrow ankle opening and even with the 7, don’t make my feet look huge (I’m a small woman with big feet). The texture is so great.

Ordered these a few days ago and I love them. There is definitely a break in period. These shoes were tight and hard to get on and off initially. Once I got my foot in the shoe my feet were very comfortable however, so I knew I just needed to break in the leather upper. A shoe horn might be a good idea to try. Now these are much easier to get on and off and I get a lot of compliments.

This is a nice addition to the Blundie line. My other boots are the dress boots and I tend to like the more streamlined styles. The boots with heels run small. I’m almost always an 8 in boots and take a five in Blundstone but I’m glad I took the advice of other reviewers and ordered an 8.5/5.5. These boots look great and feel great but they are a b**ch to get on and off the first couple of times. I had to do serious bicep work putting them on and needed a family member’s help getting them off. Seriously. But day two was even easier and I know they’ll loosen up. I can imagine this crazy narrow opening will be a deal breaker for some people but I fully committed. They’re pretty great and I know I’m going to really enjoy them.

I liked the style of the boot, and quality of the boot. Unfortunately anyone with a high instep or wide foot will never get this boot on past the toe area.

I really love these! It’s my first pair blundstones. I was looking for a cute waterproof pair of boots for London. I have pretty wide feet and significant bunions. Right sided bunionectomy ten years ago so I’m picky about comfort.
The left one did rub against my bunion for the first couple of days, but now - perfection.
They are form fitting so if you don’t like something snug against your ankle, don’t get them. You definitely need both tabs to pull them on. Which, for me, is perfect. No rain is going to get in there.
I actually went hiking in them on another recent trip to the mountains - they were great.

Gorgeous boots that looked great with all sorts of outfits, but sadly, after wearing them around the house and debating, decided that the largest size they offer (US 11) was a little small for my usually 11.5 size foot ??

These boots are fantastic. I got them last week and have worn them every day since. On their first wear I walked 3 miles with no problem. They are comfortable and stylish. I get a lot of compliments. Definitely worth the price.

Some of the best boots I have ever owned. I have 2 pair now and wear them almost daily!

Only had about a month but the boots look good, are comfortable, and the treads provide good traction, which is key in an environment that has a lot of wet, brick sidewalks. You have to be able to bend at the waist to pull them on or off, or sit, so you should bear that in mind when making your choice - definitely not slip-ons!

Classic and durable design, yet the little heel gives it a stylish elevation--this boot goes with everything. I didn't have any difficulty breaking them in.
The LL Bean representative I worked with in store said most people go a half size up for these, which was true for me. Don't forget to convert your US sizing to the Australian sizing like I did!

This is my second pair and they do not disappoint. (The leather of my first pair simply cracked and wore out from heavy use, including wet conditions and horse barn cleaningin spite of regular care.). Easy to break init takes a few wearings to soften the stiff ankles but so worth it. I like the modest heel both for a slightly more feminine look and the security in stirrups. I wear these boots with everything as they are so versatile and classically good-looking.

Incredible Boot - I am usually a 8.5 D and the 9 fits beautifully. Love the two 'tabs' that help me get this cute book on/off.

These are the best. So classy, go with anything. I wore them all summer long pretty much every day serving and bartending and my coworkers would always ask how I was wearing heels but they're just so comfortable. I've also walked miles in them with no issues. So so worth the investment!

I love these for 10 or more hours a day! I'm an active teacher and I have a second job, so I can be on my feet from when I wake to bedtime. 15-18 hours. Footwear is extremely important to me. My blundstones get me through the day. I love this more feminine style since I wear size ten. In these I wear 7.5 Australian, but in the non-gender-specific styles I wear 7. I own these in two colors.

Definitely recommend buying at least 1/2 size up. And don't give up on these after first wear. There may be a short break in period, but worth it. Great durability you expect from Blundstone, but the heal gives it a little more refined look. Super happy with purchase.

Had to exchange them for a size up because they fit pretty tight, but I'm so glad I stuck with these. All day comfort, even with the heel, and super versatile. This truly is a boot that can go from breakfast to lunch to dinner and never look out of place

This is one of my absolute favorite pairs of shoes, as is my other pair of Blundstones. Sizing is all over the map though. In the dress Chelsea Blundstones, I am a size AU4 and in this one, I opted for the AU5.5 but really should've sized up to an AU6. My usual shoe size is 8.5. Blundstones are comfortable straight out of the box on the first wear and break in beautifully. I love them so much, I bought a pair of lug sole Blundstones for my husband who works on his feet for upwards of 14+ hours a day. If you're considering your first pair, take the plunge! They're worth it.
