FAQs

Are these boots truly waterproof?

Yes, the Hunter Kids First Wellington Boots are handcrafted from natural rubber, making them fully waterproof and ideal for wet conditions.

What material is the lining made of?

The lining is made from 100% post-consumer recycled polyester, offering comfort and breathability.

How do I clean mud off the boots?

Simply wipe the boots clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse with clean water and allow them to air dry away from direct heat.

Can these boots be worn in cold weather?

While the boots provide waterproof protection, they offer limited insulation. For very cold weather, it is recommended to wear warm socks or consider adding thermal insoles.

What does 'bloom' on natural rubber mean?

Bloom is a natural process for unvulcanized rubber, appearing as a white, chalky film. It is not a sign of damage and can be easily removed by wiping with a damp cloth or using a rubber care product like Hunter Boot Buffer.

How much room should there be in the toe box?

The boots are designed with a flat sole and rounded toe to give little feet room to move. A small amount of extra space is normal to accommodate foot growth and movement.

Are these boots suitable for a child learning to walk?

Yes, the flat sole and rounded toe are designed to support natural foot development and movement, making them suitable for children who are walking or learning to walk.

Troubleshooting

Boots appear dull or have white marks (bloom)

This is a natural process for natural rubber. Apply Hunter Boot Buffer or a rubber care spray to restore the shine and protect the rubber.

Boots are stiff or uncomfortable

Ensure the child is wearing appropriate socks. The boots may need a short breaking-in period. Check that the size is correct and allows for foot movement.

Water is leaking into the boots

Inspect the boots for any visible tears or damage. If damage is found, discontinue use. Ensure the boots are properly seated on the foot and not slouching, which could create gaps.
