“I purchased these for my husband's birthday and he wears them more often than any other shoe. I'm certain that if he could, he would wear these to the gym. They're immensely comfortable and multifunctional. He can wear them to work and get on the trail at 5 p.m. — they blend into both environments. He wouldn't wear them on intense hiking trails, but in a pinch, they'd remain comfortable for miles.”
“Like everyone else, I love, love, LOVE my Blundstones. (I am sometimes tempted to sleep in them.) HOWEVER, the very unnecessary and easily remedied "weak link" is the fast wear at the back of the heel. I have had four pairs of Blundstones that went into Early Retirement ONLY because the back of the heel wore through while the remainder of the sole and the entire boot was still in great condition. It would be so easy to make the heel more rugged and harder than the rest of the sole.”
