They are built as tough as the tradies, mechanics, factory workers, farmhands, and lorry drivers they carry around daily. Whether you are fishing, freezing, or fetching products, there are top-notch gumboot options for you.In 1968 Blundstone introduced the 500 series ankle-high boot that expanded, literally, the versatility factors of their boots. This series introduced a pull-on, lace-free, with an elastic panel on the side, an immensely comfortable rubber sole, and a rich, brown ‘stout’ finish. These features are now available in the 51-, 519, 1910, 1911, 1914, and 1615 ranges as well.The Blundstone brand began worldwide backpacking trips on the feet of Aussie kids and grew in popularity overseas. Unlike competitors, this boot is designed from a single piece of extra-thick leather. It is cut into a V shape, wrapped, and then formed into the entire boot. The exception is the reinforcing heel insert.The Blundstone removable footbed slowly moulds to your foot, making these amazing boots even more comfortable over time. With all this strength and structure, you might expect a concrete block on foot - but these boots are all day boots with the lightweight to make that possible!
