Blundstone #2647 NZL Mahogany

The Blundstone #2647 NZL Mahogany combines Blundstone's proven comfort with functional materials and a design engineered for durability.
 
For the upper, Blundstone uses premium nubuck leather from the New Zealand Insetting program "Net Carbon Zero" by Tasman Tanning and Silver Fern Farms. The greenhouse gas emissions accounting of the finished upper leather was independently verified by Toitū Envirocare according to the international standard ISO 14067*.
 
The combination of a chrome-free tanned leather lining (contrasting in the shade "Red Clay") and a synthetic inner lining ensures high wearing comfort. The removable footbed is made of a PU material with a bio-based carbon content of 72% (based on total organic carbon, independently accredited according to ISO/IEC 17025) and can easily be replaced with a new Blundstone replacement footbed if needed.
 
The textile components are independently certified for maximum transparency: The pull loops typical for Blundstone consist of 50% recycled polyester certified according to the Global Recycled Standard (GRS). The elastic inserts consist of 28% natural rubber and 72% recycled polyester independently certified according to the Global Recycled Standard (GRS). The sewing thread also consists of 100% GRS-certified recycled polyester.
 
The outsole is designed so that it can be replaced by qualified shoemakers. An integrated wear indicator in the sole tread helps to identify the optimal time for re-soling and extends the service life of the boot through timely repair.
 
* Note on the CO₂ balance of the upper leather:
The CO₂ accounting of this leather is based on proven reduction and sequestration measures (e.g. through targeted tree planting) directly on the involved New Zealand farms within the own supply chain (Insetting). No external offset certificates are purchased.
