Where Do Blundstone Boots Originate From?

Blundstone boots, now available at Barkers, are known worldwide for their durability, comfort and no-nonsense design. As a proudly Tasmanian, family-owned brand, Blundstone’s head office is based in Hobart, with gumboots still manufactured in Tasmania. To meet global demand for their iconic leather boots, Blundstone partners with carefully selected manufacturers in Vietnam, India, China, Mexico and Thailand — all held to strict standards around quality, ethics and environmental responsibility.

Are Blundstone Boot’s Waterproof?

When it comes to performance, Blundstone leather boots are water-resistant, not fully waterproof. The premium leathers used are treated during the tanning process to help repel moisture, with selected styles receiving additional water-resistant treatments. To maintain protection and longevity, Blundstone recommends regular use of a waterproof spray or wax and allowing boots to dry naturally if they get wet. We recommend using the Tarrago Dubbin to keep your Blundstone Boots waterproof overtime and well maintained.

How To Properly Care For Your Blundstone Boots?

Proper care helps your men’s Blundstone boots go the distance. Cleaning the leather according to its finish and keeping soles free from dirt and contaminants will help preserve comfort, appearance and durability over time. Using the Tarrago Dubbin will also help keep your boots properly cared and cleaned for longevity and preservation. For further care information, check the full videos on how to care here.
