Regatta Splash Welly - Blue - UK Infant 13

It's best to measure your child's foot and compare it to Regatta's sizing chart. Remember to allow a little extra room for thick socks if they will be worn, but avoid purchasing wellies that are significantly too large, as this can lead to discomfort and tripping.

The Regatta Splash Welly is waterproof but not specifically insulated. For colder weather, we recommend pairing them with thick woolly socks to provide warmth and comfort.

No, these wellies should not be machine washed. Machine washing can damage the natural rubber material and gaiter. Please clean them by hand rinsing with cool water and air drying as per the care instructions.

The integrated gaiter is an elasticated cuff at the top of the boot. Its purpose is to provide an extra barrier against rain, splashes, mud, and small debris from entering the wellington boot from above, keeping feet drier and cleaner.

The lifespan of wellies depends on usage frequency, care, and the intensity of play. With proper care and storage, quality rubber wellies like the Regatta Splash Welly can last for several seasons, or until your child outgrows them.

Regatta wellies generally offer a comfortable, standard fit. If your child has particularly wide feet, it's advisable to consult the specific product measurements or try them on to ensure a comfortable fit. The natural rubber does offer some flexibility.

First, check for any visible punctures or tears in the rubber that might be letting water in. Ensure the gaiter was properly pulled up to prevent splashes from entering the top. Also, consider the type of socks worn; very thin socks might feel damp from condensation even if the wellies are waterproof. Ensure the wellies are not too large, as this can allow water to enter.

Ensure the child is wearing appropriate socks, not too thick or too thin. For putting on, a shoehorn can sometimes help. For taking off, teach the child to brace one foot against the heel of the other boot. If consistently difficult, double-check that the size is correct; wellies that are too small will be hard to get on.

While the cleated sole offers good grip, extreme conditions or thick mud can still cause slipping. After use, thoroughly clean the sole to ensure mud or debris isn't reducing traction. For very icy conditions, no wellington boot is entirely slip-proof, and extra caution is advised.

This can occur if wellies are not dried properly after use. Ensure they are thoroughly air-dried after each wear, especially inside. You can sprinkle a small amount of baking soda inside and let it sit overnight to absorb odors, then shake it out before use. Cotton or wool socks can also help manage moisture.
