Need some Blundstones
#11
Figured if I have to shell out 160.00 for Blundstones that aren't even made in Tasmania anymore, I'll spend the extra twenty for some Keen Wellies

The Blundstones are definitely not cheap here any more. The field day I was at had a Blundstone stand and they started at $100 AUD and went through the $200 AUD mark! I did look for you. And that was supposedly cheap for the farming community.
I'll wear my Baxters or RM Williams for that sort of money.
And yeah, the exchange rate favours us at the minute Woof. I think it's about 105.3 AUD:USD or near enough at the moment. When it drops - and it will drop - the financial pain here will be enormous.

They're Australian, but there is a distributor in Montana. Most comfortable boot I've ever worn. I have 2 pair. One is the 10" lace up mining boot, the other is the 8" lace up boot with the zipper.
Did I mention how comfortable they are? Worked a 72 hour shift straight, with no break, and my feet were the only things not hurting lol....

I've been wearing Caterpiller 6" lace-ups at work. Those and North Safety Rubbers. The Company gives us $125.00 per year boot allowance because our boots have to live at work. If I wear my rubbers 3/4 of the time, my Cat's are still in good shape when I get to renew my allowance. Gives me a free pair of boots every year
@ Seb. Thanks for looking. I was hoping the bargain of 15 years ago still existed.
@ Hueristic. I had some Bates USN issue boots from a surplus store that lasted a decade

also those boots are $200+ IIRC and you gotta fight the lesbians for a pair!
OK all these sheep jokes and I'm gonna have to add some to the jokes thread! You guys got that Kiwi/Aussie thing going on here that I don't know about?
