Formed in 1892 as J. Blundstone & Son by Jon and Sylvanus Blundstone, the eponymous brand is an Australian footwear label best known for its line of laceless, elastic-sided, ankle-length boots.
In 2000 Blundstone acquired John Bull Footwear, a New Zealand footwear company known for its tough yet comfortable boots for both work and play. The company's footwear is available in over 50 countries across five continents.
