One of the clearest arbitrage wins in the catalog: the identical boot costs ~45% more in the US, and TRS knocks another 10% off.

Where to buy: Bstore, Hype DC, shoe retailers nationwide; the brand museum/outlet in Hobart, Tasmania

Honesty check: Blundstones are a 150-year-old Tasmanian brand but the classic boots are now made in Vietnam and India — only the gumboots are still made in Tasmania. You're buying home-market pricing, not 'Made in Australia'.
A$244.95 ≈ US$162 — the same boot is US$235 in America, so Australia is dramatically cheaper even before the TRS refund.
Sizing is AU/UK-based; get fitted in store rather than guessing your US size.
