Care
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your Barbour Wilton Wellingtons:
- Cleaning the Exterior: After use, wipe the rubber exterior with a clean, damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals as they can damage the rubber.
- Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources such as radiators, open fires, or in direct strong sunlight, as this can cause the rubber to crack or degrade over time.
- Interior Care: If the interior becomes damp, stuff the boots with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry. For odor control, consider using specialized boot deodorizers or a light disinfectant spray.
- Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Storing them upright can help maintain their shape.
- Avoid Harsh Environments: While durable, continuous exposure to chemicals, oils, or solvents can degrade the rubber. Clean immediately if contact occurs.
