FAQs
Are these boots suitable for snow?
Yes, the waterproof construction will keep your feet dry in snow, and the faux fur lining provides warmth. However, for very deep snow, consider taller boots, and for icy conditions, always exercise caution as no boot guarantees slip-proof performance on ice.
How do I clean these boots?
Wipe the PVC exterior with a damp cloth to remove dirt. For the faux fur lining, gently brush or spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Always air dry away from direct heat sources.
What is TECFOAM?
TECFOAM is an open foam insock designed to provide superior underfoot comfort and cushioning, making the boots comfortable for extended wear by adapting to your foot's shape.
Can I wear these boots in heavy rain?
Absolutely. The fully moulded waterproof PVC construction is specifically designed to protect your feet from heavy rain and splashes, keeping them dry and comfortable.
Are these boots true to size?
Regatta typically offers standard sizing. It's recommended to choose your usual UK shoe size. If you plan to wear very thick socks, you might consider going up half a size if available for maximum comfort.
What material is the sole made of?
The sole is made of durable PVC with angled lugs, specifically designed to provide good grip and longevity in varied winter conditions.
Do these boots offer good ankle support?
As a mid-height boot, they offer moderate ankle support, which is suitable for general walking and light outdoor activities. They are not designed for high-impact or aggressive trail use.
Is the faux fur lining removable?
No, the warm faux fur lining is integrated into the boot's design for permanent warmth and comfort and is not designed to be removed or replaced.
Troubleshooting
Feet feel cold despite faux fur lining.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate thermal socks for the ambient temperature. While the lining is warm, extreme cold may require additional insulation. Also, verify that the boots are not wet inside, which can lead to cold feet.
Boots feel too stiff or uncomfortable.
Allow for a brief break-in period; new boots often need time to adapt to your foot shape. If discomfort persists, check your sock thickness; overly thick socks can cause pressure points. Always ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort.
Slipping on certain surfaces.
While the angled lugs provide good grip, no boot is entirely slip-proof on all surfaces (e.g., black ice, highly polished wet floors). Exercise caution on extremely slick conditions. Regularly clean the sole to ensure lugs are free of embedded dirt or debris for optimal traction.
Water appearing inside the boot.
Although the boots are fully waterproof, water can enter over the top if submerged beyond the boot's height or if rain/snow is heavy enough to fall inside. Check the PVC upper for any visible damage, such as cracks or punctures, that could compromise the waterproof seal. If minor damage is present, a waterproofing spray might offer temporary relief, but significant damage will require professional repair or replacement.

Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your boots:
- Cleaning the Exterior: Wipe the waterproof moulded PVC upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt and mud. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they can damage the material.
- Maintaining the Faux Fur Lining: If the faux fur becomes damp, allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. For cleaning, gently brush with a soft brush to remove debris, or spot clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent if necessary. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the lining.
- Drying: If the inside of the boots becomes wet, stuff them with newspaper or paper towels to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry completely at room temperature. Avoid placing them near direct heat (e.g., radiators, fireplaces), which can damage the PVC and lining materials.
- Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. You may want to stuff them with paper to help them retain their shape and prevent creases.
