Just tried on four different pairs of Blundstones at LLBEAN. The only pair that fit my foot well where the Chelsea's in the dark green suede. The black, leather and brown leather felt way too wide and my foot moved around quite a bit. Not so with the Chelsea boot. I have narrow heels and an average forefoot. I was reassured by a couple of employees that they get much easier to take off and on. I really like the way they look and feel!

These are beautiful boots. The color is like velvet. I had to return them because I use an insole and I was not able to use it in this boot. I ordered the original 500 Chelsea boot in gray

I tried the Born similar version of these and returned them, although beautiful, due to being too narrow. These do fit my feet pretty nicely considering that I usually wear "natural splay" tow box shoes when possible. I get many compliments on these and find them helpful for a nice compromise of fashion and function. FYI they don't have any arch support from what I can tell and no additional liner. They took a couple months to break in, so keep that in mind too if you plan to travel or hike in these before you've really broken them in. I added in Moleskin adhesive to the heel area to help with the stiff leather. I found a boot shoehorn helpful to get these on and off especially when new.

I got the gray ones. They are great. Good arch-support and accurate shoe size. Getting off is a bit difficult but for a decent able support, it is worth it.

First pair and I'm hooked. Pearl color is gorgeous, leather holds up great. Even with 1/4" orthotics very roomy and comfortable. If you have foot problems these are great. Getting on and off is a problem at first, I use wine bottles to stretch the sides. I'm a Blundstone convert!
I'd also recommend:

Perfect in every way. Size, comfort and color. A little effort to get them off, but that's a good problem!

My first pair of Chelsea High Top boots are 5 years old and going strong. Loved this blonde leather as an alternative to my first pair. They fit great and are comfortable and exactly what I expected from Blundstone.

I went up half a size (from 8 to 8.5) as recommended in the reviews and they fit wonderfully! They are a little tough to pull off initially but that will probably get easier as they break in. Amazing quality that I know will last me years.

This is my second pair of Blundstones (not because the others wore out, but because I wanted a pair of brown ones!) These are cute, comfortable and fit my style to a T. I love to wear them with cuffed jeans, or shorts and even dresses. I only wish I had found out about them sooner (they have been around forever). I'm a high top Chelsea boot girl and I pretty much live in these rain or shine. When I travel - these are my go-to boots.

Love these boots! Had been thinking about buying brown boundstones for about a month and then saw that they were at a discounted price here! Bought them immediately

I have tried other brands but nothing is a comfortable as the Blundstone boots! Other reviews said the were hard to get on, it is a tighter fit but great support once they are on. They are very comfortable, no break in time at all! Very happy with my purchase!

Such beautiful boots! I have a really high arch and tiny feet and was quite concerned about how these would fit based on some of the reviews. There's somewhat of an odd way you need to twist your foot to get in them and it took a couple days of wearing for the leather upper to break in, but ohmigod. They're so fabulous! They look cool with everything you could possibly wear and they're very comfortable.
The sizing is perfectly accurate as long as you realize these are in AUSTRALIAN sizes, and that the half-sizes essentially refer to "wide" versions. Blundstone's own website is super clear about how their sizes compare to US or UK/European sizing.

These arrived in plenty of time for Christmas. My daughter loved these Blundstone boots with the decorative detail along the sides of the boot. Fit was perfect-size 8 and she wears 7 1/2 or 8.

I ordered a half size up. I’m a 8.5 in adidas sneakers and I ordered a 9 in these! Super comfy, I ordered them bigger so I can wear thicker socks with them. They are tough to get on and off because they are new.

Very comfortable as expected with Blundstone. Love the pearl color like a nice cream color. They are a bit more difficult to get on them the classic Chelsea because they’re a bit higher. But had great feminine detail
Around the elastic. Love love love them!

These boots are so comfortable, I'm wearing them around my house for hours at a time -- just for the joy of it. (Even though it's winter here in Miami, I'd look a bit silly wearing them outside in 80 degree weather.) But when COVID-19 is over, my husband and I have some trips planned and I'll be wearing them in locations with cooler weather. The original appeal is that they are slip-resistant. (Hopefully true. Not tested yet.) These boots are only "water resistant" but that's all I need. STYLISH -- they look fabulous with long pants and with leggings. (Probably skirts too.) I normally wear a USA size 8 in boots and the Aussie size 5 fits perfectly, with thin or medium wool socks which is all I need.

The boots are not only cute on but are super comfortable as well. The openings on the boot initially are tight but with a few times being worn they stretch out appropriately.

Great boot! I got the appropriate size for "size 8 women's", could have sizes up one but not necessary (how thick of socks ya wearing??)
Def recommend. Need to give them a few days of continual wear to break them in!
