    As someone who sells Blundstones at a store it amazes me how often people want them the fit like sneakers and want no wiggle room. With this I hope I can convince a few more people to get the right one.

      How do you know that's antique brown? I thought perhaps it was rustic.

      @gns942 9 місяців тому

      @@druckza They showed the rustic brown right before the part where they talk about fitting the boot, so you may think that it's the same boot, but it's just a different segment of the video. Also, look closely at the leather and elastic goring, the rustic brown has a mottled look with brown goring, while the antique brown is a uniform brown (almost suede feel to it) with a black goring.
      I have the antique brown 1609 and it looks exactly the same as the one that the model is wearing when the narrator is talking about recommendation and kicking the toes to the front of the boot, etc. The camera cuts back to the narrator and he's holding the rustic brown - you should be able to see the differences then.
      Personally speaking, I think the rustic brown isn't nearly as nice as the antique brown or steel grey or other ones where the leather is noticeably different in grain and texture. Also as a side note, I have held the Mexico and Vietnam made boots side by side and the ones made in Mexico have slightly inferior leather and noticeably inferior TPU / PU that is too shiny and not the classic matte black like the ones from Vietnam. Thus, when I look for new Blundstone boots for myself or for family, I always get the ones made in Vietnam.

    I always wanted a pair of blundstones , I almost ordered a pair online I take a size 13 us canada , I found a store that sells them finally , and I almost got a pair I waitress until the next day to go back and get a worker at the store to help me she said size 13 is a orderd size , and then she told me the sizes I went down to a 11. and they were too big with me putting 3 fingers down the back , then I went to size 10.5 it was same width but I only could get one finger comfortably down the back of the heal and perfect width I am breaking them in now and when I do I will go back and get the sheepskin liner for winter here in Newfoundland as it gets cold , I went with the rustic brown Steele toe. As I could wear at work and always got protection when needed. So thankful I never orders a 13 on line and I went into the store to get fitted I am so happy with my purchase, my friend has got the same pair of stones from 20 years since arriving in Canada and with wear they keep looking better and better he treats his boots once a year with product , I hope I have these a life time and I say I will

    I would suggest using extreme caution before purchasing Blundstone boots. I purchased the 1469’s last week (01/04/24) and when they arrived this week. The left boot was larger than the right boot. I sent in a help request (because there is no phone number on their website, that I can find) with a video proving the left boot was larger than the right (too big for me) and have heard nothing. I have been a long time Blundstone customer, own several pair of Blundstones and admit they are comfortable (if you have a correct fit) but if it has come to this style of poor customer service I will not be purchasing or recommending any more Blundstone boots. It is a disgrace that one has to pay so much for a pair of boots and cannot speak or communicate with anyone from Blundstone when their product is a fail. Buyer be aware!!

    I’m a US 8.5D on the Brannock device. I tried on AUS 7 and although my toes aren’t hitting the front, I would like just a little more length. I’m about 3/4 thumbs width, a full thumbs width would work. Like I said my toes aren’t hitting the front though and I’m conscious of being closer than though. Obviously the AUS 7.5 wasn’t good because my feet were swimming in them as the length didn’t change but the width.

    • @BlundstoneCanadaCA

      If you would like more length adding a full size up would do this, another option is to switch to a different style. The dress series boots fit differently than a classics for example.

The 4 and 4.5 are an okay fit but i probably have just a half inch of space on my left foot and slightly less in the right 😭

    I finally got them on! Yay!
    They’re the size I wear but the heal, where the heel meets the actual back of the boot, feels like the top part of the heel that’s sewn to the back, feels like it’s digging in the back top part of my ankle! Is this normal? I’m a 6.5 in regular shoes, including heels, my Docs, Uggs and such! I’ve got skinny feet and finger toes! Lmao I do! 🤦‍♀️🤪 when I put my foot in, holding the front and back tabs, it goes in and I can wiggle my toes but that heel part! Anyone else have this problem? I think I’m gonna go a half size up! I’ve got size 3.5 right now! My son got them for me for Christmas! ❤ How long does it take to break them in and they actually start feeling comfortable? How long did it take to stretch to your foot shape? Cause I may not to exchange them! Can anyone help me on how the boot felt at first and then if you wore it every day then how did the boot fit after the 2 weeks they say of wearing the boots in?
    Is this normal and to be expected?
    When the Chelsea boot became popular, I went for the Dr Marten Chelsea boot instead of the Blundstone and it didn’t take any time to break in, they were comfortable from the second I put them on! And no, I didn’t have to go through all of this to put them on! I just wanna know if my thoughts and feelings are normal ones or that I should exchange them for another size? Oh and are 1/2 size a big difference or you notice a difference if it’s a whole entire size up! TIA!
    I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas and I wish you all a very blessed, incredibly happy and loving New Year! 🙏🫶

    First time buying Blundstone and bought the 558. I am usually a ladies size 7.5 but ended up purchasing a 5.5 in that boot. I have both double insoles in each boot but it still feels a little too roomy. When I try on the size 5 with a single insole, I feel my toenail hitting the top of the boot, not the end of the boot but the top. Not sure if that will change as I wear them for a while. Pretty confused on what size is best. They were a bit of an investment and I plan on having them a long time so I don’t want to mess up the sizing. Does the front of the boot stretch at all width wise?

    I have relatively wide feet. The 10 / 10.5 are perfect length and both have plenty of room in forefoot.
    10.5 feel amazing out today the box but don’t feel snug across the foot and I worry they will be loose with wear.
    The 10 are great, they’re snug but in a mostly reassuring way. Toes aren’t touching sides etc but my arch is getting a bit uncomfortable on the leather arch seam. I’m edging toward this size and hope that that soften and conform or is this a sign I do need the half size?
