Blundstone Leather Footwear

It all began in 1853 with a journey of two brothers across the sprightly seas from England to Melbourne. James and Thomas Cuthbertson were sailing towards their new home, which was until the blusterous winds had another plan in mind for them. With strong gusts blowing, their ship was sent to Hobart Town in Tasmania, where in a few years time the iconic Blundstone company would originate from.

Founded in 1870, Blundstone boots were inspired by the untamed natural surroundings of Tasmania, along with their farming heritage. From day one, Blundstone have been determined (and very successful) in creating top-quality boots for both men and women. Their diverse boots have been specifically designed to grapple with the Tasmanian countryside, whilst also remaining completely stylish at the same time.

In the production of their boots, Blundstone has remained respectful to their surrounding environment by maximising the use of raw material, chemicals and fossil fuels. This shows that they take pride in the manufacturing of their footwear, as well as their home in which they reside.

Why choose Blundstone boots?

There are multiple reasons why you should choose Blundstone boots; they are practical, stylish and hard-wearing. Blundstone put their heart and soul into making protective and supportive footwear for their customers, which is why they are constantly pushing the boundaries of technology to bring you the very best footwear available. Here are a few points to take into consideration when choosing Blundstone leather footwear:

High Quality Leather - Blundstone are extremely particular when it comes to the quality of leather for their boots, as they will only use the very best from the top tanneries. The advantage of using superior quality leather is that it will increase the longevity of your boots, as well as help to protect your feet for years to come.

***In order to keep your leather boots in top condition they will need to be treated from time to time, just like any other leather product. Treating your boots will prevent the leather from drying out and becoming cracked, which will also re-proof them.***

XRD® Technology - Designed to protect your feet by absorbing the harsh vibrations that can be felt when walking on tough terrains. This can be found incorporated into the soles and heels of Blundstone boots.
