When you think of Blundstone boots, especially if you are in North America, particularly where there are lots of wooded areas, one does not typically think work boots. While they are an amazing adventure boot even in the woods, they just aren’t that great for working in the cluttered underbrush of the forest. They are a staple around the world in the outdoor workplace, and most people strive to get a nice pair of Blunnies for work, but they where designed and tested in the wide open Outback of Australia and Tasmania. This makes them ideal for more arid climates where there is no dense forests. The new Btough series work boot from Blundstone is the North American bread work boot from Blundstone. This is a very serious contender to any of the best North American designed boots anywhere. Best of all they aren’t just slapped with an American or in this case Aussie name while being made in China, much like most of our boots. They are made with pride in Tasmania, Australia, and the originals have been made there since 1870!
