The Classic Chelsea Boot: A Timeless Staple
The Chelsea boot, distinguished by its elastic side panels and sleek silhouette, dates back to the Victorian era. Originally crafted by Queen Victoria’s shoemaker in the 1830s, this practical and stylish boot quickly gained popularity. By the 1950s and ‘60s, Chelsea boots were a go-to fashion choice in London’s Chelsea district—hence the name! Today, Blundstone has perfected this classic design, offering comfort, durability, and effortless style.
A Legacy of Quality: The History of Blundstone
Blundstone’s journey began in 1870 in Hobart, Tasmania. What started as a small family business has grown into a globally recognised brand, known for its high-quality craftsmanship and ability to withstand tough conditions. Designed to tackle everything from the harsh Australian outback to city streets, Blundstone boots have become a favourite among adventurers, workers, and style-conscious individuals alike.
We’re thrilled to bring you a carefully curated selection of Blundstone’s best-selling boots, available in a variety of styles, leathers, and sizes (UK 3 – 13), making them perfect for everyone.
How to Care for Your Blundstones
Blundstone boots are built to endure, but proper care will keep them looking their best for years to come:
- Remove dirt and debris using a soft brush or damp cloth.
- Clear any large dirt or debris.
- Use a stiff nylon brush to clean between the treads.
- Store in a cool, ventilated place, away from direct sunlight.
- Use a leather conditioner when your boots start looking worn.
- Avoid exposure to strong chemicals, as they can cause irreversible damage.
- Never dry your boots near an open fire or artificial heat source—this can cause the leather to shrink, crack, or pull away from the sole.
Blundstone boots are more than just footwear—they’re an investment in quality, comfort, and timeless style. Browse our full collection here and discover why Blundstone has been a trusted name in boots for over 150 years.
