The #990 is a boot you can depend on. It’s outfitted with a water-resistant upper, TPU bump cap and a luxury Comfort Arch Footbed giving you cushioning and support all day.
The Blundstone #990 work and safety boots are packed with safety features including:
1. 572°F resistant
The outsole is heat resistant to temperatures up to at least 572°F. The soling material has a very high insulating value and can be expected to provide short term resistance to melting and cracks in temperatures in the highest ranges that are normally encountered in an industrial environment.
2. Steel toe cap
Broad fitting 200 Joule impact resistant Type 1 steel toe cap. Steel is the safest toe cap material available, providing the highest levels of resistance in constructed footwear against rolling side compression and cut resistance.
3. Electrical hazard resistant
Where there is a risk that a person may come in contact with a live electrical circuit, electrical shock hazard footwear will provide the best possible protection against electrical shock hazard.
4. Water-resistant upper
Premium leather is treated to provide extra water-resistant properties. Footwear with this symbol is particularly suitable for muddy conditions.
5. Oil/Acid resistant
The soling material is resistant to most chemicals encountered in industrial situations underfoot.
6. Slip-resistant outsole
The outsole provides slip-resistance through a combination of design, tread pattern and soling material.

CARE DETAILS
- First, remove any caked dirt on your boots with a soft bristled brush or
damp cloth, and leave your boots to air dry. Please ensure that your boots
are away from direct sunlight or any heaters, as they will dry out the
leather.
- Apply leather polish, spray or cream to the leather to help maintain your
boots. If you are using a polish for the first time, try it on an inconspicuous
area of the boot to check whether it alters the colour or appearance.
- If using a polish, apply a small amount of leather cleaner to a polishing
cloth or brush and rub onto the shoe in circular motions.
These are really comfy! I ordered up a size since they're steel toes. I own another pair (size4) that are the perfect length and width, but press down on the top of my foot a bit since I have high arches. Funny enough, these boots have such thick insoles that my feet are definitely touching the top. Fine when standing, but when sitting there is some pressure. Look great and easy to slip on. Wish they came with some additional inserts, but these work for now.
Wear a 9/9.5US and the boot fits great. Definitely a little tight at the top of the foot initially but breaks in nicely and is easy to slip on with one hand while still feeling very snug. Very happy
Awesome boots! But due to the different type of insole, the boots felt too tight. Removed the insoles and added some regular ones in and they feel great! Would have loved the extra comfort from the insoles it comes with.
I meant to order the ones without the steel toe. These are clumsy compared to my old Blundstones, which i like very much. i dont like these clodhoppers much, but i already wore them so i cant return them. I will try again someday to get the correct ones. My old ones still are OK.
I wish there was an option for wide feet. The boots are made well and have held up well but fitting in them was an issue. I had to change the insoles to fit.
