    The interview looks at how these classic Chelsea Boots became popular with a young audience, and 50 years of the Blundstone 500 boots in particular.

    Best Travel Shoes for Travelling the Globe in 2019, The Manual

    Clay Abney from popular mens magazine, The Manual, tooks a look at some of "The Best Travel Shoes for the Globe-Trotting Guy" this past week.  While we all know packing the right footwear can make or break a trip, they often need to cover various types of weather, and can take up a lot of suitcase space - so its a choice you have to be careful about.

    The article features the Blundstone 550 (BL550) for men, and notes how they "may be the original perfect travel shoe." "The rugged sole is paired with a waterproof, leather upper and a strategically placed elastic patch creates a slipper like feel that will almost make you wonder if you’re wearing shoes at all"

Reilly–level range."

    However, whatever the weather may be, whether record heat in Australia or cold days in the Midwest US, these all-condition boots are "something tougher, sturdier, and altogether badder" than your average Blundstone's.
