BL491 Work Chelsea Boot

I'm a chef, on my feet 12 hours a day. Very impressed with both the comfort of the boot and the non slip tread. Definitely worth every penny.

Pros: lightweight and tough at the same time, pull-on style with handy tabs both front and back. Soft footbed, snug shaft so it doesn’t slip even though the toe bed is too wide for me So-sos: wide toe bed (for my size foot), no inside lining makes this boot feel very bare bones and will need extra thick socks for cold weather wear. I hover between women’s size 10.5 and 11. I always default order size 11. Had to send the 11 back for the 10.5. 11 was way too big even with thick socks. 10.5 fits better but is almost too short. The elastic on the shaft keeps the boot on without slipping even though I have a narrow ankle. I think it would be comfortable and not too tight for wider ankles too. I’m pretty excited about these boots. My ideal work boot wish list is leather, pull-on, lightweight, water resistant, not too bulky, flexible, comfortable foot bed and sturdy tread. These tick all the boxes.

Initially tight across top of foot; loosens out eventually; disappointingly, soles have split across widest part; cannot recommend as a result.

they really are a whole size bigger. so if you are a 9 woman the 7 men will be too big. they are fab boots though.

Great shoe, seems really durable. Taking off stars because it didn’t come with a box

Beautiful boot! Size is true, however ankles very tight and very tight across top of foot. I was able to stretch both out over a week with inserts specifically crafted for this purpose, seltzer cans…

He said the boot arrived and it was too small...I think when I said 7 1/2 it should have been Aussie size or 8 1/2 US. Please have UPS pick up the boot tomorrow and switch it to 7 1/2 Aussie size or what would be 8 1/2 US size. So sorry for the mix-up, there was a misunderstanding with my son in Seattle when I ordered the boot here in New Mexico. Thanks, next year we will get it right the first time. He loves the boot in the right size!

Second pair of Steel Toes from Blundstone but maybe my fifth pair of Blunstones. Last of these held up for an honest 2 years, and I nurse another year out of them, more or less. Soles and top cap held up remarkably well. The stitching in the heel is what gave out as well as where the leather meets the toe cap. My only grip about the last pair was the insole gave out pretty quick and I've dumped several in there of various brands. There is little if any arch support...

I read through the reviews related to size. Although I marked large and wide, they were perfect for me. I have been looking for shoes a little wider, so have been going with a 12 wide. I've worn them a week, so I can't say how they will last, but they were comfortable from the start and the break in took about a day. Took a second pair of boots to work with me to change out after a few hours, but didn't need to. If I get a solid year out of these I'll he happy and buy another.

Bought these a couple of weeks and have worn them EVERYDAY since. Worn them to the office and hiking in the woods. I own the steel toe version of this same style but like these better.
