John Bull

John Bull Footwear – Built for Hard Work, Backed by Heritage

John Bull Footwear has been part of the fabric of hard work in New Zealand since 1934. Born from the craftsmanship of the Daisley bootmaking family, the brand was built with one clear purpose: to create tough, reliable boots for those who spend long hours on their feet—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. Their boots are designed to take a beating and still keep going, just like the people who wear them. From early mornings in the mud to late finishes on the job site, John Bull boots are made to go the distance.

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

Proud of their Kiwi roots, 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 Bulls, you’re ready to face whatever the day throws your way.

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.
