Travel + Leisure featured the Blundstone 150th anniversary boots this week. The article talks about how the company was founded and over the years became footwear that could "withstand cobbled city streets, rugged farmland, and dance and factory floors," as Blundstone CEO Steve Gunn mentions in the article. "150 years later, the commitment to durability, quality, and innovation has not wavered."

From World Wars to Mount Everest, Blundstone has stood the test of various times, for example - "In the late 1800s, we were one of 350 cobblers in Tasmania. In 2020, we are the only one remaining."

Blundstone was featured in Spy.com's "Elevate Your Fall Footwear With These 12 Stylish Chelsea Boots" piece today where they noted that "Blundstones are a rough and tough pair of boots. Expertly made to look to look as utilitarian as possible, Blundstones are chunky — but in a stylish way."

Blundstone was listed today in Conde Nast Traveller's "12 Men's Slip-On Shoes for Lazy Summer Days" and in that article is also the featured image at the very top of the list. The article talks about the best summer boots for men, along with summer slip on shoes for those lazy days, or when you need to get through a summer downpour.  

Quote - "The wide, rounded toe on the standard version previously meant the only thing Blundstones couldn't handle was a formal event, but the Chelsea Boot solves all of that, with a shape that transitions seamlessly, wherever you're headed."

Caroline Moss at Today.com had an article about Blundstone rain boots and how her friends recommendations became her recommendation in an article titled "I gave in to the Blundstone boot trend and they were actually worth every penny".

Dan Koeppel from Wirecutter / NY Times wrote a piece today titled "Why I Love My Blundstone Boots" and it talks about how "Blundstones are light, comfortable, supportive, and—this is key—durable: A pair of Blunnies may get scuffed and scrappy, but they can last for years as your daily driver."

The Manual takes you through a century and a half of history with "This Aussie Brand Has Been Making Some of the Best Boots for 150 Years."

In an article titled 15 Summer Boots That Don't Require a Pedicure, Elle.com listed the Blundstone 1448's and noted that "These are honestly one of the most comfortable pairs of shoes I own."

NY Mag's, the Strategist featured Blundstone boots once more this week in "What Are the Best Ankle Boots for Women?" where they list all the best ankle boots, along with their popularity due to the boots durability.

Great article from Sam Schube at GQ Magazine who features the Blundstone 500's in "The Best All-Weather Boot Is Beloved by Australian Farmers—and Scruffy Art Kids" - which looks at how the Blundstone 500's made it from Australia to New York City back in his college days and how they've become more popular in the US over recent years. Making the move from ranchers to painters, "Blundstones fit nicely into the broader, increasingly unhinged menswear landscape."

The article talks about the Blundstone 500, in walnut-brown and coal-black, their comfort and how they can be worn "through rain, snow, sleet, and a half-dozen trips to the pretend-outdoors of upstate New York."
