Regatta Foxfire Wellies - Black - UK 3

While the vulcanised natural rubber provides good protection, and the cotton lining adds a layer of comfort, these wellies are not specifically designed as thermal boots. For very cold weather, we recommend pairing them with thick, insulating socks to provide extra warmth.

The duration and intensity of the glow depend on the exposure time and brightness of the light source it's charged with. Typically, after a good charge in bright light, the glow can be noticeable for a period in low-light conditions, gradually fading over time.

No, these wellies should not be machine washed. Machine washing can damage the natural rubber and the internal cotton lining. Always clean them by hand with water and air dry them as instructed in the 'Care' section.

EVA stands for Ethylene-vinyl acetate. It's a lightweight, flexible, and cushioned material commonly used in footwear for shock absorption and comfort. The EVA footbed in these wellies provides ultimate comfort and support for your child's feet.

Regatta Foxfire Wellies are generally designed to fit according to standard UK children's shoe sizing. However, we recommend checking the Regatta size guide if available, and considering the type of socks your child will wear with them when choosing a size.

The upper part of the wellies is made from vulcanised natural rubber, which provides the primary waterproof and durable qualities. The interior features a natural cotton lining for comfort.

First, check the wellies for any visible punctures or tears in the rubber that might compromise waterproofing. Ensure that socks worn are appropriate for the activity and that the wellies are fully dry inside before each use. Sometimes, perspiration can cause dampness if feet are too warm.

The glow-in-the-dark elements need to be 'charged' by exposure to light. For optimal glow, ensure the wellies are exposed to bright natural sunlight or strong artificial light for at least 30 minutes before heading out into low-light conditions. The longer and brighter the exposure, the stronger and longer the glow.

Inspect the multi-directional cleated sole for any build-up of mud, debris, or small stones that might be reducing grip. Clean the sole thoroughly. Also, check for excessive wear on the tread, as worn soles will offer less traction. Ensure the size is correct; ill-fitting wellies can affect stability.
