Celebrity footwear endorsement

After Christmas, I bought myself my first pair of Blundstone boots, wondering if they might replace my favourite old Doc Martens.

I can now proclaim that the Blunnys are suitable for:

• schlepping kids in a stroller up and down hills to preschool (in the rain).
• sitting at the computer typing.
• loading gear into and out of cars, vans, and SUVs.
• walking through the mall.
• playing the drums for several hours onstage.
• trudging through light snow.
• taking out the trash.

In two months, I've worn the Blundstones almost every day -- in fact, I've tried something else on my feet only once or twice in that time. Those are seriously comfy boots.
