FAQs
Are these boots suitable for wide calves?
The Houghton series features a standard fit. If you are concerned about fit, it is recommended to wear them with leggings or slim-fit trousers.
How do I clean the textile lining?
If the lining gets dirty, use a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water to gently wipe the interior, then allow them to air dry thoroughly.
Can I wear these in freezing temperatures?
While waterproof, they are not insulated. We recommend wearing thick thermal or wool socks to maintain warmth in cold weather.
What should I do if the boots get soaked on the inside?
Remove the dampness by stuffing the boots with crumpled newspaper or a dedicated boot dryer, and place them in a well-ventilated area until completely dry.
Do these boots run true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing. If you plan on wearing heavy-duty socks, some users prefer to size up.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel slippery on the inside
Ensure your feet and socks are completely dry before putting the boots on, as the textile lining performs best when moisture is kept out.
Rubber surface appearing dull or white
This is a common natural process known as blooming. Wipe the boots with a damp cloth and apply a dedicated rubber care spray to restore their original sheen.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Joules Houghton Wellingtons maintain their performance, clean them after every muddy use by rinsing off debris with fresh water and letting them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the rubber to crack. If you wear orthotic insoles, you may find the standard textile footbed can be removed or supplemented, but ensure they remain flat to maintain comfort. Store the boots upright in a cool, dry place to prevent the material from creasing.
