FAQs
Are these boots suitable for heavy snow?
Yes, the 100% waterproof construction and thick fleece lining make them very suitable for heavy snow conditions, keeping your feet dry and warm.
How do I ensure the best grip in icy conditions?
The robust rubber outsole with multi-directional lugs is designed for excellent grip. Keep the lugs clean from mud and debris for optimal performance on ice.
Can I wear these boots in mild temperatures?
While they offer excellent warmth, they may be too warm for mild or warmer temperatures due to the thick fleece lining. They are best suited for cold weather.
How high up the leg do these boots come?
The boots come up to mid-calf height, with a padded collar and drawstring tie for a secure fit around the top.
What material is the boot made of?
The upper is synthetic, the inner lining is textile (fleece), and the sole is synthetic rubber.
Can the fleece lining be removed for washing?
The fleece lining is integrated into the boot and is not designed to be removed for washing. Spot clean as needed and ensure proper air drying.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure the drawstring tie on the padded collar is adjusted correctly for a secure yet comfortable fit. If the issue persists, consider the fit on your foot, as the thick lining may reduce internal space.
Water seeping into the boots.
Check for any damage to the waterproof exterior. Ensure the collar drawstring is pulled snugly. If the boots are submerged beyond the collar height, water may enter.
Reduced grip on surfaces.
Clean the outsole lugs of mud, snow, or debris, as this can impede traction. The tread pattern is designed for grip, but obstructions can affect performance.
Fleece lining feels damp after prolonged use.
This can be normal in very humid or extremely cold conditions. Ensure the boots are properly dried after each use by air-drying away from direct heat and stuffing with newspaper if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Dunlop Blizzard Winter Boot requires no setup. Simply put them on and secure the padded collar with the drawstring tie for a comfortable fit.
Compatibility: These boots are designed for use in cold, wet, and potentially icy conditions. They are compatible with standard outdoor winter clothing.
Care:
- Cleaning: After use, brush off any loose dirt or mud. For deeper cleaning, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: To dry, remove any insoles if possible and allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or fires, as this can damage the materials and lining.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
