Blundstone 997 XFoot Series
When you need a safety boot that’s built for real hard yakka, the Blundstone 997 XFoot Series steps up as a tradie’s best mate. Loaded with premium safety features, serious durability and all-day comfort, the 997 is designed to handle Australia’s toughest worksites without missing a beat.
Crafted from black platinum quality water-resistant leather, the Blundstone 997 offers outstanding durability and a professional look that stands up to daily wear. The 150mm boot height provides extra ankle support and stability, making it ideal for demanding environments where uneven ground, ladders and long hours are part of the job. This water-resistant upper helps keep your feet drier in wet conditions, adding another layer of practicality for outdoor and industrial work.
Getting the right fit is easy thanks to the 7-eyelet lace-up system with a lace locking device. This allows you to fine-tune the fit around your foot and ankle for secure support throughout the day. For added convenience, the premium heavy-duty zip makes these boots quick to get on and off without sacrificing support. A moulded TPU bump cap protects the leather at the toe from scuffs and abrasion, extending the life of the boot even in high-wear areas.
Comfort is front and centre in the XFoot Series. The padded tongue and collar provide cushioning around the ankle and instep, reducing pressure points and improving overall fit. Inside, the thermal regulating bamboo lining helps manage temperature and moisture, keeping your feet cooler in warm conditions and warmer in cooler environments. Bamboo’s natural anti-bacterial properties also help control odour, keeping your boots fresher for longer.
Underfoot, the low-density shock-absorbing PU midsole delivers cushioning and support while incorporating an anti-bacterial agent for added hygiene. The removable Comfort Arch footbed is designed to support the natural shape of the foot and features XRD® Extreme Impact Protection in the forepart. This advanced cushioning helps absorb and redirect shock, reducing strain on your feet, joints and lower back during long shifts.
Blundstone’s SPS Max with XRD® Technology is built into both the heel and forepart strike zones, offering superior impact protection where it’s needed most. This makes a noticeable difference for workers who spend long hours on hard surfaces or carry heavy loads.
The rubber outsole is engineered to increase slip resistance across varied environments. It delivers excellent cut and slip resistance and is highly resistant to hydrolysis and microbial attack, ensuring long-lasting performance in harsh conditions. Heat resistance up to 300˚C makes the 997 suitable for high-temperature environments, while fuel oil resistance adds versatility across industrial and trade settings.
A steel shank ensures the correct step flex point and assists with torsional stability, helping to reduce fatigue and improve balance on uneven ground. Electrical hazard resistance provides added protection in environments where contact with live electrical circuits is a risk.
At the toe, a broad-fitting Type 1 steel toe cap tested to resist a 200-joule impact delivers trusted protection against impacts and compression. Designed with a wider fit, it allows natural toe movement while maintaining high safety standards.
Available in men’s sizes 5 to 14, including half sizes from 7.5 to 10.5, the Blundstone 997 XFoot Series Safety Boots meet AS 2210.3:2019 and ASTM F2413-18 standards and come backed by Blundstone’s 30-day comfort guarantee and manufacturer’s warranty.
Tough, comfortable and built to last, the Blundstone 997 XFoot Series is a reliable choice for tradies who want a safety boot that works as hard as they do.
