“My experience with Blundstones has been very disappointing; I don't understand the hype for these at all. The only plus side for me has been that the waterproof quality is awesome, and I hugely appreciate a lack of wet socks living in the PNW. However after half a year of wearing these in multiple terrains for different hikes and travels they still feel so uncomfortable to me. The top of the boot is so stiff and rigid that it feels like my ankle and foot can't quite flex properly with a normal step. Every time I wear these my feet feel like they need two days to recover. I'm not really a "boot person" but I've owned far more comfortable boots than these and I just really don't understand why these are so popular. There are far better and cheaper options out there. If I could return them at this point I would.”
