FAQs

Are these boots true to size?

Hunter Kids Original Wellington Boots generally run true to standard UK children's sizing. However, if your child is between sizes or has wider feet, it's often recommended to go up a size to allow for thick socks and growth.

How do I clean these wellington boots?

Wipe them with a damp cloth and mild soap after use to remove dirt. Air dry them away from direct heat or sunlight. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Can my child wear these boots in the snow?

While the boots are waterproof and provide good traction, they are not insulated. For snowy conditions, we recommend pairing them with thick, thermal socks to keep feet warm. They are designed for wet, not extremely cold, conditions.

What kind of socks should my child wear with these boots?

We recommend wearing thicker, moisture-wicking socks to provide comfort and prevent chafing. In colder weather, thermal or wool socks are ideal for warmth.

What does 'handcrafted' mean for durability?

Handcrafted means each boot is assembled by skilled artisans, ensuring attention to detail and quality construction. This traditional method contributes to the boots' overall durability and iconic design.

What is the reflective back strap for?

The reflective back strap is a safety feature designed to increase your child's visibility in low-light conditions, such as on cloudy days or when walking at dusk.

Will the boots crack over time?

With proper care and storage away from direct heat and sunlight, Hunter boots are designed to be durable. Exposure to extreme heat or prolonged direct sunlight can cause natural rubber to dry out and potentially crack.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too big or too small

Ensure you have selected the correct UK children's size. Refer to Hunter's sizing guide if available. For a slightly larger fit, thicker socks can help. If too small, the boots may need to be exchanged.

White powdery film (blooming) appears on boots

This is a natural occurrence called 'blooming' and is a characteristic of high-quality natural rubber. Wipe the boots clean with a damp cloth. Specialized rubber boot buffers or sprays can restore the matte finish.

Feet feel cold inside the boots

These boots are not insulated. For colder weather, pair them with warm, thermal socks. Hunter often offers specific welly socks designed to fit inside their boots for added warmth.

Difficulty pulling boots on or off

Ensure socks are smooth and not bunched up. For easier removal, gently wiggle the foot while pulling. Specialized boot jacks can assist with removal for older children.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions### SetupSimply slide your child's foot into the boot. Ensure they are wearing appropriate socks for comfort and warmth. Check the fit by having your child stand up; there should be a small amount of room for growth, but not so much that the foot slips excessively.### CompatibilityThese wellington boots are compatible with various terrains including grass, mud, puddles, and light gravel. They pair well with raincoats, waterproof trousers, and warm socks for comprehensive protection in wet weather.### CareTo keep your Hunter Kids Original Wellington Boots in top condition, follow these simple care steps:1. Cleaning: Wipe down the boots with a damp cloth and mild soap (if necessary) after each use to remove dirt and mud. Rinse thoroughly with water. Do not use harsh detergents or abrasive scrubbers.2. Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can cause the rubber to dry out and crack over time.3. Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. If storing for extended periods, consider stuffing them with newspaper to help maintain their shape.4. Blooming: Occasionally, you may notice a white powdery film on the boots, known as "blooming." This is a natural process for high-quality rubber and can be easily wiped away with a damp cloth or a silicone buffer designed for rubber boots. It does not affect the performance or durability of the boots.
