Those cool boots
Catfat | Wednesday, February 26, 2003 - 06:59 pm     Can anyone tell me about those way cool boots they are wearing? Are the leather or canvas or what? Where can I ge some? Sorry to start a new thread, but I couldn't fit this in anyplace else. |
Bastable | Wednesday, February 26, 2003 - 07:37 pm     They're called Blundstone boots. They're Australian-made, common there, and about $30 each in American money. I bought some last month when I was in Melbourne! But they tend to be expensive if you buy them in North America. They're very comfortable! Most of them are steel-toed, but mine aren't. http://www.blundstone.com.au/ |

Ericka1012 | Wednesday, February 26, 2003 - 11:20 pm     Catfat, I didn't notice the boots until you mentioned them here ... they are great but I don't think the price is that bad...gee my dh can spend alot more on sneakers... |
Makeitstop | Thursday, February 27, 2003 - 12:43 am     $30 each? Hmm, I've only ever bought boots in pairs. Just kidding of course. |
Ericka1012 | Thursday, February 27, 2003 - 08:35 am     Makeitstop...I think you read the site wrong those boot are like $130.00 not $30.00...LOL..or as you would say $60.00 for each boot. |
Tabbyking | Thursday, February 27, 2003 - 08:48 am     i don't think we'd be allowed to list a color as 'dark honey redskin' in america! a friend in australia sent some to a mutual friend of ours for her two toddlers about 2 year ago. they were such cute little black pull-on boots with the front and back strap. even the 2-year-old could pull his own boots on. he wore them to bed for a week and then as part of his batman costume at halloween, too. i think she sold them on eBay once her kids outgrew them. they still looked almost new. |
Emt911 | Thursday, February 27, 2003 - 08:52 am     Wow! They have a lot of neat colors in the kids' sizes. I think Seamonkey would look hot in the pink ones! I'll take the 'tanzanite'(not sure what they called the lavender-bluey color) pair. Or, if we both wore the same, size, we could each take one of each color! LOL |
Tabbyking | Thursday, February 27, 2003 - 08:56 am     emt, i think they have a song about you and sea wearing different colored blundies, and it goes something like this: "oh, we wore blundies, when blundies wasn't cool" barbara mandrell sang it back in the 70's. lol |
Bastable | Thursday, February 27, 2003 - 12:16 pm     Yeah, they start at about US$30 if you buy them in Oz. If you get them imported, they're about $150. If you have a friend going to Australia, get him or her to buy a pair for you. Make sure you check the shoe sizes on a conversion chart, though; they're a tad different there. |
Catfat | Friday, February 28, 2003 - 10:14 pm     Thanks everyone for all the boot information. My favourite boots, which I am wearing even as we speak are Ugs, also from Australia, which are made of sheepskin with the fleece inside. Also cheap if you buy them in Australia, expensive in the USA |
Seamonkey | Friday, February 28, 2003 - 10:36 pm     Well, I'm more of a Birkies grrl and certainly not pink I love the colors in the kids' boots .. |
Tabbyking | Saturday, March 01, 2003 - 07:32 am     i wear Uggs, (Ugs?) too! |
