FAQs
What are these boots made of?
These Hunter Kids First Wellington Boots are handcrafted from natural rubber for the upper and outsole, and feature an updated 100% recycled polyester lining for comfort.
Are these boots waterproof?
Yes, they are fully waterproof, designed to keep your child's feet dry during rainy weather and puddle splashing.
How do I clean these wellington boots?
Wipe them clean with a damp cloth and mild soap after use. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight. For specific issues like 'bloom,' a specialist rubber buffer can be used.
Are they suitable for cold weather?
While they provide protection from wet conditions, they are not primarily insulated for extreme cold. For colder temperatures, we recommend pairing them with warm, thick socks, such as Hunter's fleece wellington boot socks.
What is 'bloom' and should I be concerned?
'Bloom' is a white, powdery film that can appear on natural rubber. It's a natural process and not a defect. It can be easily wiped off with a damp cloth or a specialist rubber buffer product.
Where are these boots manufactured?
These Hunter Kids First Wellington Boots are manufactured in China.
Do these boots come in other sizes or colors?
Yes, the Hunter Kids First Wellington Boots series is available in a range of sizes and colors beyond this specific pink UK 7 pair, including red and other pink variations.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or loose
Ensure you have the correct size for your child's feet. Hunter boots generally run true to size, but individual foot shapes can vary. Consider trying a different size or wearing thicker/thinner socks to adjust the fit. A small amount of growing room is ideal for children's footwear, but excessive room can lead to tripping.
White powdery film ('bloom') appears on the boots
This is a natural process for high-quality rubber, not a fault. Wipe the boots clean with a damp cloth. For a more thorough restoration, consider using a Hunter Boot Buffer spray, which is designed to restore the boots' finish and remove bloom.
Feet feel cold in the boots
While waterproof, these boots are not heavily insulated. For colder weather, pair them with thick, insulating socks. Hunter also offers fleece wellington boot socks designed to fit inside their boots for added warmth.
Boots seem difficult to clean after heavy mud
Allow the mud to dry slightly, then tap off any excess. Use a stiff brush (not wire) to remove stubborn, dried mud, followed by wiping with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse with clean water and air dry.
Child complains of discomfort or rubbing
Ensure the child is wearing socks that extend above the top of the boot to prevent rubbing. Check for foreign objects inside the boot. If discomfort persists, re-evaluate the sizing to ensure it's neither too small nor too large.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

There is no complex setup required for these boots. Simply slide your child's foot into the boot. Ensure they are wearing appropriate socks for comfort and warmth, particularly in cooler weather.
Compatibility
These Hunter Kids First Wellington Boots are specifically designed for children, making them suitable for active kids in wet conditions. The size UK 7 is intended for a particular foot size; ensure proper fit for comfort and support. They are compatible with various outdoor activities where foot protection from water and mud is needed.
Care
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your Hunter Kids First Wellington Boots, follow these care instructions:
- Cleaning: After use, especially in muddy conditions, wipe the boots clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the natural rubber. For stubborn dirt, a soft brush can be used gently.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as extreme heat can cause the rubber to crack or discolour.
- Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. You can stuff them with crumpled newspaper to help maintain their shape if storing for an extended period.
- Bloom: Natural rubber products may sometimes develop a white, powdery film known as 'bloom'. This is a characteristic of high-quality, natural rubber and is not a defect. It can be easily wiped away with a damp cloth, or by using a specialist rubber buffer spray if desired.
