FAQs
Are these Regatta Amble Boots truly waterproof?
Yes, these boots feature Regatta's ISOTEX waterproof and breathable membrane, designed to keep your child's feet dry in wet conditions while allowing internal moisture vapor to escape.
What material are the boots made from?
The upper part of the boots is made from a durable synthetic leather, complemented by the ISOTEX membrane for waterproofing.
How do I clean these boots?
Wipe them down with a damp cloth after use. For tougher dirt, a soft brush and mild soapy water can be used. Always allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
Are they suitable for winter weather?
While the boots offer waterproof protection, they are not specifically insulated for extreme cold. They are suitable for general cool and wet weather conditions, especially when paired with warm socks.
How do I ensure I get the correct size for my child?
We recommend measuring your child's foot length and referring to Regatta's official size chart. It's often best to allow a little extra room for growth and thicker socks.
Can these boots be used for hiking?
Yes, with their durable construction, waterproof membrane, and grippy outsole, they are well-suited for light to moderate outdoor adventures and walks.
Troubleshooting
My child's feet feel damp inside the boots.
First, ensure the laces are tied snugly to prevent water ingress from the top. Check for any visible damage to the boot's upper or sole. Also, ensure your child is wearing appropriate socks (e.g., synthetic or wool blends that wick moisture) rather than cotton, which can absorb sweat and make feet feel wet.
The boots feel stiff or uncomfortable.
New boots, even synthetic ones, can require a short break-in period. Encourage your child to wear them for shorter periods initially. Ensure they are wearing suitable socks and that the size is correct. If discomfort persists, check for pressure points or rubbing that might indicate an incorrect fit.
The outsole seems to be losing grip.
Clean the outsole thoroughly to remove any mud, dirt, or small stones that might be lodged in the tread. Accumulated debris can significantly reduce grip. If the tread appears excessively worn, it may be time for new footwear for optimal safety.
The boots look dirty and are hard to clean.
For stubborn dirt, use a soft brush and a solution of mild soap with water. Gently scrub the affected areas. Avoid using harsh chemicals or scrubbing too aggressively, as this can damage the synthetic leather or waterproof coating. Always rinse with clean water and air dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions ### Setup The Regatta Amble Boots are ready to wear right out of the box. Simply ensure your child's foot is properly seated within the boot, then lace them up securely but comfortably. Always double-check that the laces are tied tightly to prevent tripping hazards. ### Compatibility These boots are designed for infants and children, specifically those requiring a UK Infant 13 size. They are suitable for a wide range of weather conditions, from light rain to colder days, making them compatible with various outdoor and everyday outfits. They pair well with waterproof trousers for full weather protection during active use. ### Care To keep your Amble Boots in top condition and maintain their waterproof properties: 1. Cleaning: After use, especially if muddy, wipe the boots clean with a damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use a soft brush and a mild soap solution. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners. 2. Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them directly on radiators, near open flames, or in direct sunlight, as excessive heat can damage the synthetic materials and the waterproof membrane. 3. Maintenance: Periodically check the laces for wear and replace them if necessary. Inspect the outsole for any embedded debris that could affect grip. While the ISOTEX membrane provides waterproofing, using a suitable footwear protector spray designed for synthetic materials can offer an extra layer of defense and help repel dirt, extending the life and look of the boots. Store in a cool, dry place.
