FAQs
Are these boots suitable for very young toddlers who are just learning to walk?
Yes, the design focuses on providing excellent support and absorbing stress with every step, which is beneficial for toddlers developing their walking skills. The ergonomic insoles also contribute to stability.
How do I know if I've chosen the correct size?
Blundstone children's boots should fit snugly but not be painfully tight. There should be a small amount of space for toe movement. It's recommended to measure the child's foot and check the brand's sizing chart, and if possible, try them on.
Can these boots be worn in wet weather?
The boots are made with water-repellent leather, offering protection against light rain and splashes. However, they are not fully waterproof, so prolonged submersion in water is not recommended.
How often should I condition the leather?
Condition the leather every few months, or more often if the boots are frequently exposed to harsh conditions or after cleaning. This helps maintain the leather's suppleness and longevity.
What is the benefit of the removable insoles?
The removable insoles provide customisable comfort and support. They can be removed to accommodate a growing foot, extending the usable life of the boots and ensuring continued comfort for your child.
Are these boots unisex?
Yes, the Blundstone Children's collection is designed to be unisex, making them suitable for any child.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight after a short period.
Remove the ergonomic insole to create more space. If they are still tight, consider if the child's foot has outgrown the size, as these boots are designed to fit snugly initially but allow for growth with removable insoles.
Leather appears dry or stiff.
Apply a suitable leather conditioner to restore moisture and flexibility. Ensure the boots are clean before applying conditioner.
Water-repellent feature seems reduced.
The water-repellent treatment may diminish over time. Consider using a waterproof spray or wax specifically formulated for leather footwear after cleaning and conditioning.
Difficulty pulling boots on.
Ensure the child's foot is slid in correctly. Using a sock can help the foot glide in more easily. The elastic side panels are designed for easy on/off, but a snug fit is normal.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
These boots are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure the correct size is chosen for optimal comfort and support.
Compatibility:
- Socks: Recommended to be worn with appropriate socks to prevent rubbing and enhance comfort.
- Insoles: The removable insoles can be taken out to accommodate thicker socks or a larger foot size as needed.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe away dirt and dust with a damp cloth. For tougher grime, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for children's or work-grade leather to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. Do this periodically, especially after cleaning.
- Drying: If the boots get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use, ideally in a shoe bag or box to protect from dust and damage.
