A couple years back I wrote about how Blundstone boots had barnstormed across the U.S. because of their versatility. They’re great for camping, look sharp at work, last for years, and take on their own personal patina over time. It’s a good bet that you either own a pair of Blundstones or know someone who does. The New York Times has even suggested that the Australian company’s boots are becoming the defining style of the decade.
Today, I’d like to make the argument that the company’s insulated version is maybe the best winter boot ever made. Aesthetically identical to their normal boots, the insulated Blundstones have been my go-tos over the past couple winters, so much so that all my other winter boots are now gathering dust.
Let me pause to acknowledge that those of you who’ve been shoveling your driveways in Lake Tahoe are certain that I’m an idiot, because Blundstones won’t cut it when there’s seven feet of snow. The same goes for anyone in the upper Midwest who’s ice fishing in seriously cold temperatures and needs arctic boots to keep their toes from freezing off.
I unequivocally agree…
