Blundstone Boot Care

Give your Blundstones the love they deserve!

While our boots are designed to last, it's vital that you care for them to help prolong their life and good looks.

Our boots are made from leathers with various finishes and each needs specific care in order to keep them clean.

Keeping the soles of your Blundstone boots clean is also an integral part of boot care. This will help avoid permanent stains and minimise contaminates causing damage to your favourite boots.

Cleaning the Sole

  • Remove any large pieces of dirt/debris from your boots.
  • Use a stiff nylon brush to clean between the tread to remove any excess dirt. Should dirt remain, soak the soles of your boots in a shallow bath/bucket of warm water for two hours, note that the water should not reach the leather upper
  • Finally, use a damp cloth for an overall clean before allowing to dry naturally.   

Extra Tips

  • Never dry your boots by an open fire or artificial heat source, as this will cause the leather to harden, shrink and crack. It can even cause the leather to pull away from the sole. Always dry your boots naturally at room temperature.
  • Always store your boots in a well ventilated, cool place away from sunlight or any heat which will tarnish the leather.
  • You should use a leather conditioner on your boots whenever they need them. If your boots are looking a little scuffed and worn, always remember to use a conditioner.
  • Similarly, you should use a suede protector on your suede boots when they are looking worn, and before you wear them on a rainy or sunny day.
  • Avoid exposing your boots to chemical contamination. Solvents, strong acids and alkalis will do irreparable damage on leather, whilst commonplace substances like milk and salt are also highly damaging. In the event of exposure, clean the boots immediately.
  • You should only use good quality cleaning substances and ones specific to the material of your boots.
