Blundstone and Samuel Hubbard reinvent a wardrobe staple using traditional manufacturing processes and continued innovation.

Founded and produced in Tasmania, Australia since 1870, Blundstone represents the marriage of modern technology and heritage design. Blundstone shoes are rugged and carry a distinctive look and feel thanks to their natural materials and fine craftsmanship. 

The iconic 500 Chelsea boot is imbued with the tradition and spirit of the Australian brand. Launched in the late 60s, the silhouette was favored by farmers, builders, and other blue-collar workers who required safe footwear rugged enough for a strenuous workday. Shaped to follow the lines of the foot, the boot is built for comfort wherever you go. Our 500 boot comes in Stout leather for men. It features reinforced stitching framing the shaft and a roomy toe box. Pull them on and off easily using the dual, branded pull tabs and contrasting stretch gussets to the sides. These men’s boots are treated with a weatherproof oiled finish to tackle the elements. A cushioned midsole and unique SPS Max Comfort System offer impact protection. The shoe is placed on top of a durable TPU outsole equipped with a slip-resistant tread pattern.

Taking cues from the 500, the 585 optimizes the elements of Blundstone’s original boots for both men and women. This iteration in Rustic Brown has a premium leather profile with a burnished finish, tonal elastic gussets on each side, and branded tabs. Its removable insole includes XRD® Technology in the heel, which absorbs shock to enhance comfort. The signature TPU outsole is installed underfoot.

The 1448 boot was designed specifically for women. Combining support and style, the silhouette is done in Voltan black premium leather. Brogue perforation outlines the elasticized side gussets, adding a sophisticated touch. Classic detailing reprises two logo tabs and a roomy toe box. Below, midsole cushioning and a TPU sole form a comfortable base.

Samuel Hubbard shoes are reverent of a shoemaking tradition established nearly a century ago. The brand’s keen eye for craftsmanship is matched only by each style’s uncompromising comfort and time-honored style.

Polished and versatile, the Uptown Maverick men’s boot is optioned in brown pebbled nubuck and black or Whiskey smooth leather. Each version shares a reinforced cap-toe, rope laces, and upper hooks for extra security. Zippers are featured on the medial side. A padded tongue, memory foam insole cushioning, and full glove-leather lining promote a comfortable interior environment. The custom Vibram outsole is springy and boasts a protective lug tread pattern.

The Sam Hubbard Step Ahead from the DressFast collection is a go-with-everything boot designed to work at the office or out with friends on the weekend. It makes a cool statement in Espresso leather with diamond quilt stitching, black trim, and a cap-toe. D-ring eyelets and light collar padding are inspired by traditional hiking boots. Single-wrapped foxing tape adds a sporty finish while reinforcing the construction. The shoe is given a removable triple-density memory foam insole, a lightweight shank for arch support, and a durable Vibram sole.
