I am no longer buying anything made in China or Asia by cheap labor. It is all junk.

Interesting, I currently own 5 pairs of Blundstone's- yes I know a bit weird, but I am addicted to them. I have one pair that are steel toed, that I have had almost 15 years that I am reluctantly moving our of the rotation. The other four pairs are in great shape, and I haven't had any problems with. I did however have one pair of 500's about 8 years ago that the inner toe cap pulled away from the leather, and it would press against my toes. I called Blundstone and they gave me a RMA# and I sent them back, they replaced with now questions.
My Blundstones fell apart

Beware: Blundstones are disposable - My Blunstone's soles fell apart and they can't be resoled. They just crumbled into dust. I wore them in an office environment (no chemicals or industrial environment) three or four times a week. I took them to a few cobblers to have them fixed assuming normal wear and tear but they all said they couldnt be fixed
The response from Blundstone was that I didn't wear them enough (as I said I wore them 3 or 4 times a week). Something about the "PU" soles needing to be compressed on a regular basis. $150 is a lot to pay for something that needs that much attention and can't be repaired.
I just tossed $150 in the trash.

Bottom line - these boots just aren't what they used to be be. I liken them to 'cheap' now.

The sole on my Blundstone 500's fell apart also. I was wearing them and noticed black rubbery pieces all around me, As I was walking chunks of the sole fell off. I loved my Blundstones prior to this. Searching web to get # for distributor in US to request new pair. Guess you already did this with no results. Sorry to say I won't be spending another $150 for Blundstone boots. Have you found another comfortable boot? Thanks for your post.- VERY HELPFUL!

I totally agree.I have purchased several of blundstone in the past however the newer purchases are falling apart. I wrote to corporate about this problem without receiving a response. These boots are not worth the money.

My 500's are giving out. Had them healed, now sole is gone. Have had them probalby 5 years, but a little disappointed that they are now made in Thailand! Not sure I'll buy another pair with the negative comments listing lighter weight upper leathers etc. Don't know if I have every run across another T. Chandler on line.
Change me.
Very Disappointed! Won't be buying any more Blundstones!!!
I bought these Blundstone boots because I was so satisfied with my first pair. The quality has TANKED!!! My first pair had nice leather interior linings more...
