FAQs
Are these boots insulated?
The Foxfire Wellingtons are primarily designed for waterproofing. For colder weather, we recommend pairing them with warm, thick thermal socks.
How do I know if the fit is correct?
There should be a thumb's width of space between the toes and the front of the boot to allow for natural foot movement and thick socks.
Can these be washed in a machine?
No, rubber boots should never be machine washed. Clean them by hand with a soft brush and water.
What is the benefit of the vulcanized rubber?
Vulcanization strengthens the rubber, making it more resistant to cracking and water seepage compared to standard rubber.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
While the design is standard, the rubber material has some natural flexibility; however, if your child has very wide feet, you may want to size up.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel slippery inside
Ensure the feet are completely dry before putting the boots on and wear moisture-wicking socks.
Difficulty pulling boots on/off
Use a shoehorn or ensure the child's socks are not bunching up at the heel during the entry process.
Rubber surface looks chalky or dull
Apply a dedicated rubber conditioner or simply wipe with a damp cloth to restore the shine.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Regatta Foxfire Wellingtons, rinse off mud and debris with clean water after each use. Avoid leaving the boots in direct sunlight or next to heat sources like radiators, as this can cause the rubber to crack or degrade prematurely. Allow them to air dry naturally in a cool, well-ventilated area. If the interior becomes damp, stuffing them with newspaper is an effective way to absorb moisture overnight. When selecting a size, ensure there is enough room to accommodate a thicker pair of wool or cotton socks for added warmth and comfort during colder seasons.
