Rugged Australia requires rugged boots. Blundstone boots. Formerly only available in neutral tones like their Classic Black, Steel Grey or Rustic Brown, the originally steel-toed crap kickers have expanded into the two-tone territory with line definition on the soles for some extra wardrobe customization. The new features are seen mostly on the Chisel Toe models but there are some new models in their regular boot style that will give you a bit of a moon boot feel if that’s your thing.
And then there’s new dressier new Brogue Lace-ups that I can’t stop wearing, although that will probably change once snow comes around. I wouldn’t want to ruin something so perfect. You can grab yours for $239 at their Toronto location at 791 Queen St. W. Warning: Like Sorel’s and other boots, if you happen to be shopping online, you’ll want to go down a size, or even a size and a half.
