Blundstone is reintroduce its premium boot range for fall.
Called the Blundstone Heritage Series, the Australian footwear company noted that the collection includes two updated styles in black and brown aniline leather, as well as two new colorways in chestnut aniline leather and chocolate nubuck leather for men and women.
Handcrafted from 72 processes and touched by 34 pairs of hands, the Heritage Series is Blundstone’s “most sophisticated” dress boot, the company said, and draws inspiration from its archives.
The new tooling modified from archival styles create a refined silhouette with sharper lines along the outsole of the boots, while the aniline leather preserves the natural beauty of the grain, Blundstone noted.
The Heritage Series features a Goodyear welt construction where the leather soles and uppers are stitched together by a hand-guided process. The premium leather outsole comes finished with a rubber tread, and natural cork is integrated within the welt of the boot.
Joe Carfora, global range manager of leisure and ancillary at Blundstone, said in a statement that the Heritage Series is “designed for wearers with an eye for enduring design over passing trends.”

“Over our 156-year history, Blundstone has built on what works, and let go of what doesn’t — every boot is the next chapter in a story shaped by generations,” Carfora noted. “The most recent update to the Heritage Series is another example of Blundstone continuing to innovate, whilst remaining true to our roots and design DNA.”
This launch comes after Blundstone revealed its first sandal style and new midsole technology in March. And in October, the company opened a 1,274-square-foot store in L.A.’s Silverlake neighborhood at 3212 W. Sunset Blvd.
The company’s new Heritage Series, which retails for $394.95, is now available at Blundstone stores and Blundstone.com.
