Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Your Hunter Original Short Boots require no complex setup. Simply unbox, put them on, and you're ready to go!
Compatibility
- Intended User: Designed for adult females.
- Footwear: Best worn with socks, especially Hunter Welly Socks, for added comfort, warmth, and to help manage internal moisture.
- Terrain: Suitable for wet, muddy, and uneven surfaces. Not recommended for extreme climbing or highly abrasive environments.
Care & Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your boots:
- Cleaning: After use, wipe down your boots with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Never use harsh detergents, solvents, or abrasive brushes.
- Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct sunlight, open flames, or artificial heat sources (e.g., radiators). Excessive heat can damage the rubber.
- Storage: Store your boots upright in a cool, dry, dark place. Avoid folding or creasing them to prevent cracks in the rubber. If storing for a long period, you may use boot trees to help maintain their shape.
- Bloom Removal: If a white powdery film (known as 'bloom') appears, it's a natural process of high-quality rubber. To restore the finish, use Hunter Boot Buffer or a silicone spray, following the product instructions.
