FAQs
Are these boots suitable for very cold weather?
Yes, the 3mm neoprene lining provides excellent insulation, making them suitable for cold weather and helping to keep your feet warm.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Select your standard UK shoe size. The adjustable strap allows you to customize the fit around your calf for both comfort and to prevent water or debris from entering.
What is the material of the boots?
The boots are handcrafted from Le Chameau's exclusive, flexible, and soft Chamolux natural rubber.
How long do these boots typically last?
With proper care, handcrafted natural rubber boots like the Chasseur model are known for their durability and can last for many years of regular use.
Can I wear these boots for heavy-duty work?
The bi-density sole and shank reinforcement offer good support and durability for general outdoor activities and light work. For extremely demanding or hazardous work environments, specialized safety boots may be more appropriate.
How should I clean the inside of the boots?
You can wipe the inside with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and ensure the inside is dried thoroughly with newspaper or by air drying away from heat.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff on first wear.
This is normal due to the robust, natural rubber construction. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in. The neoprene lining will also adapt to your foot shape over time.
Water ingress around the calf.
Ensure the adjustable strap is tightened securely around your calf after putting the boots on. If the issue persists, check the gusset for any damage.
Rubber appears to be cracking or drying out.
Apply a rubber care product specifically designed for wellington boots. Ensure the boots are clean and dry before application. Avoid storing them in direct sunlight or near heat sources.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.
While designed for all terrains, extremely slick surfaces like wet polished tiles may offer less grip. Ensure the tread is clear of mud or debris for optimal performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Compatibility: Suitable for adults engaged in outdoor activities such as country walks, farming, hunting, or equestrian pursuits. Designed for all terrains.
Care:
- Cleaning: After use, rinse the boots with fresh water to remove mud and dirt. Use a soft sponge and soapy water if necessary. Avoid abrasive brushes.
- Drying: Do not dry near direct heat sources like radiators or fires, as this can damage the natural rubber. Stuff with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow to air dry naturally.
