FAQs
Are these wellingtons waterproof?
Yes, they are constructed from durable rubber designed to be fully waterproof, protecting your feet from rain and snow.
Can I wear these in the summer?
While you can, they are insulated with fleece and may feel too warm for mild or hot weather conditions.
How should I clean the fleece lining?
If the lining becomes damp, pull the boot shaft out and let it air dry. If it gets dirty, spot clean with a very small amount of mild soap and water, then air dry thoroughly.
Does the toggle closure make them leak-proof?
The toggle creates a seal against the elements, preventing snow and rain from falling into the top of the boot.
Are these boots suitable for wide calves?
The toggle tie allows for significant adjustability, but fit may vary depending on individual calf dimensions.
What is the best way to prevent the rubber from cracking?
Store them out of direct sunlight and avoid extreme temperature fluctuations or exposure to high-heat sources.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty getting the boot on or off
Loosen the toggle tie completely before entry or exit to allow the calf area to expand.
Moisture buildup inside the boot
This is often caused by condensation from warmth; ensure the lining is allowed to air out fully between uses.
Loss of traction
Check the outsole treads for embedded stones or compacted mud and clean them out to restore grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Dunlop Blizzard Wellingtons remain in top condition, consider the following maintenance tips:
- Fit Adjustment: Utilize the top toggle to tighten the boot against your leg, which prevents internal heat loss and keeps water out. Do not over-tighten, as it may constrict circulation.
- Cleaning: Rinse off mud and dirt using water and a soft brush after each use. Avoid harsh detergents that could degrade the rubber.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air-dry naturally in a cool, ventilated area. Avoid placing them directly next to heaters, radiators, or open fires, as excessive heat can cause the rubber to crack or warp.
- Storage: Keep the boots in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight to prevent rubber UV degradation. Ensure they are completely dry before storing for an extended period.
