FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
The Blundstone 1351 boots are water-repellent due to their high-quality leather and construction. However, they are not fully waterproof and prolonged exposure to heavy rain may lead to moisture ingress.
How do I clean and care for the leather?
Clean with a damp cloth. Use a specialized leather cleaner for tougher dirt and apply a leather conditioner periodically to maintain the leather's suppleness. Avoid harsh chemicals.
What is the Poron™XRD™ foam for?
The Poron™XRD™ foam is located in the heel and is designed to absorb shock and dissipate impact, providing enhanced comfort and reducing stress on your feet and body during prolonged wear.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Blundstone sizing can differ from standard shoe sizing. It's recommended to check the brand's specific size chart and measure your foot. The boots should feel snug but not painfully tight, with room for a standard sock. They often come in whole sizes, with half sizes available in some models. Consider the UK sizing guide.
Can these boots be worn in hot weather?
The leather and microfiber lining offer some breathability. While suitable for general wear, they may feel warm in very high temperatures due to the leather construction.
What is the difference between these and standard Chelsea boots?
These boots feature a 'High Top' design, meaning they have a higher shaft compared to traditional Chelsea boots, offering a different aesthetic and more ankle coverage.
What kind of socks should I wear with these boots?
Medium-weight socks are generally recommended for comfort and to aid in the break-in process. Wool or synthetic blends are good choices for managing moisture and providing cushioning.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel tight or uncomfortable
Blundstone boots often require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure you have the correct size; consider trying different socks.
Leather shows scuffs or marks
Light scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For more significant marks, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner suitable for rustic brown leather. A leather balm can help restore the finish.
Difficulty pulling boots on/off
Ensure your socks are not too thick. Utilize the dual pull tabs firmly. If the elastic feels stiff, it may loosen with wear, or you can use a silk sock liner to help them slide on more easily.
Water seeping through seams
While water-repellent, they are not fully waterproof. For extensive wet conditions, consider applying a waterproofing spray. Check seams for any damage that might allow water ingress.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Gently clean the leather with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner.
- Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent drying or cracking.
- Water Repellency: While water-repellent, avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. For added protection, consider using a leather waterproofing spray specifically designed for nubuck or suede finishes, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the leather's condition. Use boot trees to help maintain shape when not in use.
