The Original #500, now in waxed suede. Legendary Blundstone comfort meets ultra-soft, water-resistant suede. One slight change makes a world of difference.
Specifications: - Tobacco water-resistant suede - Black elastic side - Durable TPU outsole - Cushioned midsole for comfort - SPS Max Comfort system for outstanding shock absorption - Removable footbed - Lightweight and comfortable - Steel shank for added stability
Care Details: Caring for your suede boots is easy - all you need to do is simply follow the below steps:
- Use a suede brush, to scrub off any surface stains or dirt. - If you have any scuff marks, you can remove them with a gum eraser. Simply rub the scuff with the eraser and wipe away the rubber debris. - Then dampen a suede brush with a little water and pour a small amount of suede and leather cleaner on it. Then clean the shoe, focusing your attention on any particularly stained spots. - Dab the shoes with a clean towel to remove any excess moisture and leave to air dry. - Once dry, apply a water and stain repellent spray on the shoe to help prolong their life. Some suedes are best treated prior to wear if they have not been treated.
It’s a good idea to waterproof boots regularly to protect the leather from staining. If the leather is wet, let it dry naturally prior to cleaning or using any cleaning substances.
