Getting started with your Hunter Original Short Wellies is simple. They are designed for a pull-on style, allowing for quick and easy wear. No complicated fastenings or adjustments are needed. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks for comfort and warmth, especially in cooler temperatures.

Care
Proper care is crucial to maintain the appearance and longevity of your natural rubber wellies.
- Cleaning: After use, wipe down your boots with a clean, damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used. Avoid harsh detergents or solvents.
- Drying: Allow your boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, direct sunlight) as this can damage the rubber.
- Maintaining Rubber: Natural rubber can sometimes develop a white, powdery 'bloom'. This is a natural process and not a defect. To restore the shine and condition, use a Hunter Boot Shine or Rubber Boot Buffer (e.g., product code `WFS1000RMA`). Apply as directed on the product for best results.
- Storage: Store your wellies upright in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Avoid folding or creasing the rubber for extended periods.
