FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
Yes, the Hunter Original Play Boots are made from vulcanized natural rubber, which provides a 100% waterproof barrier.
How do I determine my size?
These boots generally fit true to size. If you plan to wear thick socks, some users prefer to go up half a size.
Can I wear these for long hikes?
While comfortable, these are designed for casual, everyday urban wear and are not engineered for rugged hiking or technical terrain.
How do I clean the exterior?
Simply wash with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth after use, then allow them to air dry naturally away from heat sources.
Does the rubber contain latex?
Yes, the boots are made from natural rubber, which contains latex.
Troubleshooting
White powdery film appearing on the rubber surface
This is a natural process called 'blooming.' It can be removed with a dedicated Hunter rubber buffer or a clean, damp cloth.
Boots feel slippery on wet interior surfaces
Ensure your socks are dry and the interior of the boot is wiped down if moisture has entered; avoid wearing on polished indoor floors when wet.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Hunter Original Play Boots remain in top condition, follow these simple care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the boots clean with a damp cloth after exposure to mud or dirt. Avoid using harsh chemical solvents.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the rubber from degrading or fading.
- Maintenance: Periodically use a rubber care spray or specialized sponge to maintain the finish and prevent 'blooming' (a white powdery film common on natural rubber).
- Compatibility: These boots are best worn with medium-weight socks for optimal comfort and moisture wicking.
