New boots

[Olsen]

Just got me a new pair of boots today, and I use this all the time

Ofcourse not for hunting, but every time I leave the house for something else, I wear my small boots

I cant live without those and I have really missed them, since I throw the last pair out 14 days agoe


Best boot for everything

They look pretty comfy and stylish alright. Like that stretch material in the center. My legs and feet are so worn out that picking boots is an all day affair!

[Olsen]

They are so easy to get on-off and a little water is no problem

Blundstone's proud heritage now stretches over three centuries and the company continues to be a 100% Australian family owned company based in Hobart, Tasmania.

Synonymous with elastic sided boots worldwide, Blundstone Australia sell a wide range of footwear for all sorts of purposes - heavy work, light work, hiking, playing, rainy days, sunny days, city, country - there's a Blundstone for nearly every need.

The Story

- 1853 Brothers, James and Thomas Cuthbertson set sail from England on the 'Corramandel' bound for Melbourne - Landed in Hobart Town, blown off course in the roaring forties - James Cuthbertson commenced his own business, making and importing shoes - James married, had two sons, and bequeathed the now flourishing business to his first-born, James II - John and Eliza Blundstone arrived in Hobart around this time on the 'Conway' from Derbyshire. Like James Cuthbertson, John was also experienced in the footwear manufacture, and he soon set up business in Liverpool Street.

By 1892 John had established a factory and expanded to premises on either side of Collins Street, and had taken his son into the business.

1902 John Blundstone and Son was formed and soon after a purpose built 2 storey site was erected in Campbell Street.

1932 James and Thomas Cuthbertson purchased Blundstone Pty Ltd. They amalgamated the manufacturing operations under the Blundstone name, and retained the family name for the tannery in South Hobart.

1979 Blundstone became the first Australian footwear manufacturer to receive a Design Award from the Industrial Design Council of Australia.

1986 recipient of an Australian Export Award.

1989 commenced manufacture of waterproof injection moulded footwear (gumboots).

2000 Blundstone acquired another footwear company John Bull Footwear which was founded in New Zealand in 1934.

2004 Blundstone legendary comfort evolves with the introduction of SPS x-tra.

2006 Blundstone sign on Australian rock legend Angry Anderson as the "face of Blundstone".

2008 The next generation of hard working footwear for "Hard Working Men" arrived with the release of Blundstone Brutes featuring SPS Total. SPS Total is 5 star comfort and includes the revolutionary Blundstone Comfort Pod (patent pending).

Blundstone now manufacture out of china, except for gumboots.

Olsen, the better brand is RM Williams and he still manufactures in Australia.
