New Fall 2012 Blundstone Styles

Posted on June 21, 2012 by admin

Here’s a sneak peak of the newest Blundstone styles that will be available in the U.S. this fall. Rustic brown leather and a lace-up chukka boot compliment the classic Blundstone styles and colors, while spicing things up a bit just in time for cooler weather.

The 260 will be available as a 261 in chocolate suede, and a 267 in black leather. The Blundstone 410 stout brown is back, along with the same boot in black, the 413. The 585 rustic brown appears similar in styling to the 550 series, but will be offered in both a standard and fleece footbed version. Most unusual of the group is the Blundstone 268, an aussie-inspired chukka, complete with side elastics and trademark pull tag.

An Old Friend Right Out of the Box!

Posted on August 27, 2009 by admin

IN THESE days of impatient consumers and instant gratification, it has become something of a fading tradition to have to “wear in” a pair of Blundstones, the hard-wearing Tasmanian work boot.
Many farmers, tradies and other outside workers swear by the traditional 500 model boot and are only too willing to take the time (and blisters?) to get them into the comfort zone. But, as the fame of Blunnies spread, more city folk wanted to wear them and, well, who’s got the time to run-in a pair of boots? I’ve got jazzercise in 10 minutes.
So, in a bid to keep the 300 cobblers down in Hobart even busier, Blundstone has come up with the NEW 561, a boot for the modern, cashed-up, time-poor, soft-footed suburbanite consumer. And the designers seem to have hit the mark.
Same classical look of the iconic style 500, but with added glove-soft weathered oiled 2.5mm thick waterproof nubuck suede, a more flexible sole, a footbed with the gun shock absorbing material under the heel and — wait for it — kid leather lining. The queue starts here …
So confident is Blundstone, it has adopted a three-second rule for the new boot. That’s how long it will take most people to realise the boot is already comfortable and doesn’t need to be be worn in.
