Blundstone
Elastic-sided work boots
Blundstone is a brand of Australian footwear, especially the elastic-sided ankle boots that have become iconic for their durability and slip-on design.
Originally workwear for farmers and tradespeople, Blundstones crossed over into casual fashion: She wore her Blundstones everywhere that winter.
Often shortened to Blunnies in Australian slang.
