That person I'm interested in,
How will they wear the brand stones?

Blundstone was founded more than 150 years ago on the Australian island of Tasmania. The shoes favored by workers and outdoorsmen in harsh natural environments are now accepted as a fashion item in the city. This may be because of their easy-to-match designs and variations that allow you to project your own personality. For this issue, we asked five people active in various fields to wear shoes of different designs. Some had been wearing the shoes for some time, while others were wearing them for the first time. We asked them to speak frankly about the appeal of "Brand Stone" from their personal perspectives.

I heard that you have been using "Brand Stone" for a long time.

I have been wearing the most classic side gore boots in black for about 5 years now. The leather adapts to my feet, so they become easier to wear year after year. I have the image that "Brand Stone" is a brand that everyone loves to wear for a long time. The outsoles don't wear out easily, and they are really tough.

Brandstone also repairs soles. " When do you wear them most often? When do you wear them most often?

. I wear them in my daily life and when I paint. When I paint windows, I often have to get on a stepladder or scaffolding, which is rather hard work. For this reason, "Brandstone" shoes, which have no laces, are easy to put on and take off, and have a good grip, are perfect for me. They are also rainproof, so I wear them when I go on business trips where I can't bring many pairs of shoes.

I hear that you often go camping, and it's perfect for that, isn't it?

Of course, I also wear them when I go camping. I don't mind getting them wet or dirty, they are easy to put on and take off, and they are easy to get in and out of the tent. . I highly recommend them for girls who are going camping for the first time but don't have outdoor shoes.

I see that they are really worn in many different situations!

Brand Stone" is good for any occasion, isn't it? I like to wear them with set-ups, so today I wore them with a "Woa" set-up, but they also look good with a dress, and they are easy to match with girls' clothes. . If I have trouble choosing shoes, I just go with these for now. They are lightweight despite their appearance, so they are perfect for days when I'm moving around.

. Today, I asked you to wear the "Women's Series," which has a slightly higher heel than the model you usually wear.

Even with the higher heel, they are as comfortable as ever , and the 5cm heel height is just right. It is also good for children who usually wear pumps or heeled shoes to wear as an entry point.

What would you like to wear between this model and the model you normally wear , and how do you want to wear it?

I think I will wear both my original boots and this model without any distinction. Shoes that can be worn in any situation and without thinking in a good way are rare for girls. Brand Stone" is a really convenient boot, so I hope you will try to own a pair.
