Blundstone

If there's one pair of boots people across Canada throw on for every season or activity, it's Blundstone boots. These mega-popular and beloved boots are great for everyday wear in all types of climates, whether it’s rainy walks to work or easy treks on the trail. They've been going strong since 1870, when the Tasmania-based Blundstone family made work boots for farmers and factory workers that could handle uneven terrain. Blundstone’s iconic 500 series first appeared in the 1960s and have been providing comfortable footwear across the globe since.

The Blundstone design

If you’re new to the world of Blundstone boots, there’s tons of fantastic features you’ll be introduced to. Their iconic slip-on design makes for an easy entrance. Most of the time you can just pull on the tab at the back of the ankle and slip into the boot without a problem. Their sturdy soles also use a patented shock protection system that ensures you stride comfortably, with minimal impact to your joints as you walk on tougher terrain.

Keep it casual

Most pairs from Blundstone Canada are for casual wear, meaning you can head straight from the office to the trail and… well, pretty much anywhere. The leather body is resistant to water, oil and grease, all while moulding to your foot with wear. Some Blundstones are also waterproof. You can also level up your comfort in the winter with Blundstone sheepskin footbeds, warming wool bases for your boots that retains heat, wicks moisture and let your feet breathe. For the rainier months, give your boots some extra protection with waterproof spray, which helps them dry fast and protects from stains.

Boots for hard work

You can also get Blundstone boots that come armored up for added durability and protection thanks to steel toes. With a CSA Grade 1 protective steel toecap and puncture-resistant materials, they’re a fantastic pair of boots to wear in workspaces where you’ll be carrying heavy items that could cause some pain if they’re dropped (ouch).

Fit for all sizes

Little adventurers can even enjoy a pair of Blundstone boots with kid sizes that come with a splash of colour. Also note that Blundstone boots in Canada are sold in Australian sizes, which are different than Canadian/American sizes. Check out the size chart on the product page to determine which size if right for you.
