Care Instructions

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your natural rubber boots:

• Cleaning: After use, wipe the boots clean with a damp cloth to remove dirt and mud. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, as these can cause the rubber to dry out, crack, or discolour.
• Storage: Store your boots upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. If storing for extended periods, consider using boot trees or stuffing them with newspaper to maintain their shape.
• Addressing 'Blooming': It's common for natural rubber boots to sometimes develop a white, powdery film known as 'blooming'. This is not a defect but a natural process where insoluble particles rise to the surface. It can be wiped away with a damp cloth or a dedicated Hunter boot buffer spray.
