Care
Proper care extends the life and maintains the appearance of your Hunter boots:
- Cleaning: Wipe boots clean with a damp cloth and mild, soapy water after each use. Ensure all mud and dirt are removed.
- Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight), which can damage the rubber.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid folding or creasing the rubber, which can lead to cracks.
- Rubber Bloom: Natural rubber can sometimes develop a white, powdery film known as "bloom." This is a normal process and not a defect. It can be easily wiped away with a damp cloth or a specialized rubber boot buffer spray.
- Avoid Solvents: Do not use harsh chemicals, oils, or waxes as these can degrade the natural rubber.
