John Bull

John Bull work boots – Built for Hard Work, Backed by Heritage!

It’s true that John Bull footwear has been synonymous with hard work in NZ since 1934.

Born from the craftsmanship of the Daisley boot making family, the John bull brand is built with one clear purpose: To create tough, reliable boots for those who spend long hours on their feet. In short, whether on the farm, on the tools, or out in the elements.

Over the decades, John Bull has become a name synonymous with durability, comfort, and performance.  Just like the people who wear them, John Bull work boots have been design to take a beating. From early mornings in the mud to late finishes on the job site… John Bull work boots go the distance.</p>

What makes them different? It’s their commitment to quality materials, innovative features, and tried-and-true craftsmanship. Every John Bull boot is made to meet the demands of real work. They offer protection, support, and long-lasting comfort in even the harshest environments.

Proud of their Kiwi roots, as a result John Bull continues to stand behind every pair of boots they produce. They don’t just make footwear—they help build confidence. When you pull on a pair of John Bull work boots, you’re ready to face whatever the day throws your way.

Take the Bull by the Horns

Their iconic motto says it all: “Take the bull by the horns.” It’s not just a catchphrase—it’s a call to action. Whether you’re slogging through the paddock, climbing scaffolding, or grinding it out in the workshop, John Bull is right there with you.

After more than 85 years, one thing hasn’t changed: John Bull still believes in backing the backbone of New Zealand. Because great work starts from the ground up—and that means wearing boots you can count on.
