I’ve had these Blundstones for several years now. Despite being advertised as comfortable and versatile, they’ve only ever given me blisters on my heels and chafing around the ankles. I decided to wear them one last time and see if they redeemed themselves. Otherwise, to ThredUp they go.

I wore them last week on a chilly, rainy day. But this time I wore them with thicker, longer socks. Guess what? No blisters or chafing. The problem was me all along.

You win, Blundstones.
