FAQs
Are these boots suitable for very young children?
Yes, the sizing is for children, and the design offers good support and protection. Ensure the size is appropriate for your child's foot.
How do I know if I've chosen the correct size?
Measure your child's foot from heel to toe. Compare this measurement to the sizing chart provided by Regatta. There should be a small amount of growing room, typically about a finger's width.
Can these boots be machine washed?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the waterproof membrane and adhesives. Hand clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.
What does 'Isotex' mean?
Isotex is Regatta's own brand of waterproof and breathable fabric technology used in their outdoor apparel and footwear.
How long will the waterproof feature last?
With proper care, the Isotex waterproof and Hydropel features are designed to be durable. Periodic re-waterproofing treatments can help maintain their effectiveness over time.
Are these boots heavy?
These boots are designed to be lightweight thanks to the EVA materials used in the footbed and potentially the sole construction, aiming for comfort during extended wear.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable
Allow for a break-in period by wearing them for short periods initially. Ensure the correct size is being worn.
Water seeping into the boots
Check for damage to the Isotex membrane or seam seals. Ensure the tongue is positioned correctly to prevent water ingress. Reapply a suitable waterproofing treatment if necessary.
Traction is reduced on slippery surfaces
Clean the outsole lugs to remove mud and debris. Ensure the terrain is within the boot's designed capabilities.
Boots smell unpleasant
Remove insoles and wash them separately if possible. Air dry the boots thoroughly. Use a deodorizing spray or powder suitable for footwear.
