Blundstone has launched the #243 crew boot, designed for builders, construction workers and tradies. The boot is designed to be comfortable, durable and sturdy. Made in Blundstone’s signature water-resistant wheat nubuck upper, the #243 is a 135 mm-high safety boot with a padded collar and tongue and plenty of comfort, due to Blundstone’s SPS Max comfort system, making the boot suitable for those on their feet all day.

The wheat-coloured, water-resistant, low-cut style features a lightweight TPU outsole and is zip-sided for convenience. The crew boot also features a Coolmax breathable, moisture-wicking lining and a steel toe cap, tested to resist a 200-joule impact.

The TPU outsole is slip, oil, acid and organic fat resistant, and can withstand temperatures up to 140°C. The crew boot also features SPS Max – XRD Technology in the heel and forepart strike zones for increased impact protection, and a removable Comfort Arch footbed with XRD Extreme Impact Protection fore part insert, for comfort. The boot is also electrical hazard resistant.

The #243 is available in sizes 5–13 (half sizes 7.5–10.5). Blundstone boots are available online and in stores via select retailers throughout Australia, and are backed by a 30-day comfort and six-month manufacturing guarantee.
