FAQs

Are these boots truly waterproof?

Yes, the Hunter Original Kids Wellington Boots are handcrafted and designed to be fully waterproof, keeping your child's feet dry in rainy and muddy conditions.

How do I choose the correct size for my child?

We recommend measuring your child's foot length and referring to the Hunter size guide. It's often best to size up slightly to allow for growth and thicker socks, but ensure they are not so loose that the foot slips excessively.

Can these boots be worn in cold weather?

While the boots themselves provide a barrier from wet conditions, they are not insulated for extreme cold. For colder weather, we recommend pairing them with warm, thermal socks or Hunter's specific boot socks for added warmth.

What is the lining material?

The boots feature a comfortable textile lining, which is made from polyester, providing a soft interior for your child's feet.

How should I clean mud off the boots?

To clean, simply wipe the boots down with a damp cloth and mild soapy water. Avoid using harsh cleaning agents or abrasive scrubbers. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat.

What does 'handcrafted' mean for these boots?

Handcrafted means that each pair of boots is meticulously assembled by skilled artisans, ensuring attention to detail and high-quality construction, upholding the traditional Hunter standard.

Will the reflective strap wear off over time?

The reflective back strap is designed for durability. While regular wear and tear may eventually affect its appearance, its reflective properties are intended to last through typical usage. Avoid harsh scrubbing on the reflective area during cleaning.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel damp inside after use.

First, ensure the top of the boot was not submerged or water did not splash over the top. Check for any small punctures or tears in the boot material. Also, ensure the boots are dried thoroughly between uses, as trapped moisture can lead to dampness. Wearing appropriate moisture-wicking socks can also help.

My child's feet are slipping inside the boots.

This often indicates the boots are too large. Ensure you have the correct size for your child. Wearing thicker socks can also help to fill out excess space and provide a more secure fit. Check the sizing guide carefully.

The boots have developed a white, powdery film ('bloom').

This is a natural occurrence in high-quality rubber wellington boots and is not a defect. It can be easily wiped away with a damp cloth. For a more thorough restoration of the matte finish, Hunter offers a specialized boot buffer spray.

Boots are difficult to put on or take off.

Ensure your child is wearing appropriate socks, not too thick or too thin, that allow their foot to slide smoothly. For removal, a boot jack can be helpful, or simply using the opposite foot to hold the heel down while pulling the foot out. Check if the size is too small.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Getting started with your Hunter Original Kids Wellington Boots is straightforward:

  1. Socks: Ensure your child wears comfortable socks, preferably moisture-wicking, to prevent rubbing and manage internal moisture.
  2. Sizing: Double-check the fit to ensure there's enough room for movement, but not so much that the boot slips excessively.
  3. Putting On: Help your child slide their foot into the boot. The graded leg heights are designed for ease of wear.

Compatibility

These boots are compatible with a wide range of outdoor activities and weather conditions:

  • Weather: Perfect for rainy, muddy, or damp conditions.
  • Activities: Suitable for puddle-jumping, gardening, park play, school commutes, and light hiking.
  • Surfaces: Provides good traction on grass, mud, wet pavement, and uneven outdoor terrain.

Care Instructions

Proper care extends the life and appearance of your boots:

  1. Cleaning: After use, wipe down the boots with a damp cloth and mild soapy water to remove mud and dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  2. Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not dry them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the material.
  3. Storage: Store upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. If storing for extended periods, you can stuff them with paper to help maintain their shape.
  4. Bloom: "Blooming" is a common process where white powdery marks may appear on natural rubber boots. This is not a defect but a sign of high-quality rubber and can be wiped clean with a damp cloth or a specialised Hunter boot buffer spray.
