FAQs
What temperatures are these boots suitable for?
The Grubs ICICLE 5.0™ boots have a comfort rating from -20°C to +20°C, making them suitable for a wide range of cold and temperate weather conditions.
Are these boots suitable for adults?
No, these boots are specifically designed and sized for children and infants.
How do I find the correct size?
Refer to the Grubs sizing chart, which typically includes measurements for boot height and calf width for each UK size. It is recommended to measure your child's foot length for the most accurate fit.
Can these boots be worn in snow?
Yes, due to their insulation and waterproof nature, they are suitable for playing in snow, provided the snow is not excessively deep where higher boots might be preferred.
How durable is the rubber outsole?
The Garden Outsole is made from hard-wearing, quality rubber, designed for durability and to withstand regular use in outdoor conditions.
What is the benefit of the neoprene material?
The 5mm InsufOam-Ultra™ neoprene provides excellent thermal insulation to keep feet warm and is also flexible for comfort during movement.
Can these boots be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these boots. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the best method for care.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or too loose.
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Check the size chart provided by Grubs for accurate measurements. The 5mm neoprene offers a snug fit for insulation; consider a slightly thicker sock for a tighter feel or ensure feet are measured correctly.
Water is leaking into the boots.
Inspect the boots for any visible tears or holes, especially around the seams. If damage is found, the boots may need replacement. Ensure the boot shaft is fully covering the child's leg and not pushed down.
Difficulty removing the boots.
Utilize the 'easy kick rim' by placing a foot against it and pushing off with the heel of the boot you wish to remove. Ensure the child's socks are not overly thick, which can add friction.
Boots smell unpleasant.
Ensure boots are thoroughly dried after each use. Wash the inside with mild soap and water, then air dry completely. Baking soda can be used inside the boots overnight to absorb odors.
