Blundstone 1609 Antique Brown Chelsea boots combine a rich brown leather finish with the lined construction of the Classics series. This unisex style suits anyone looking for everyday boots with a softer feel and more room around the forefoot than the Originals range. The antique finish works naturally with denim and adds character to a simple chinos-and-shirt outfit.
Materials and design
Elastic side panels allow the boot opening to flex as you pull them on. Front and rear pull tabs help you slip into the boots without dealing with laces.
Cushioning and comfort
The contoured EVA footbed supports the shape of your foot and can be removed for airing. A durable TPU outsole handles everyday surfaces, while the SPS Max Comfort system provides cushioning underfoot. Leather and synthetic lining add a comfortable feel. XRD technology in the heel area complements the cushioning as you walk.
Fit and sizing
The Classics series offers more room around the forefoot than Originals. Use the Blundstone size guide and try the boots with your usual socks. Half AU/UK sizes add width and volume rather than length.
Care
Brush away dirt and let the boots air-dry at room temperature, away from radiators and other direct heat. We recommend Blundstone Renovating Cream Rustic. Apply a thin layer with a soft cloth and work it into the leather using circular motions. Always test on an inconspicuous area first, as treatment may affect the colour and finish. Rustic is a neutral, non-pigmented cream suited to this finish. The leather may darken temporarily after treatment.
