Troubleshooting
Feet feel wet inside the boots.
First, check the boots thoroughly for any visible punctures or tears in the rubber. Ensure the top opening of the boot is not submerged in water or that water is not splashing over the top. Also, consider the type of socks worn; non-breathable socks might lead to condensation, making feet feel damp.
Boots feel uncomfortable or rub.
Ensure the boots are the correct size for your child. Boots that are too small or too large can cause discomfort. Make sure your child is wearing appropriate socks; thin socks can lead to rubbing, while very thick socks might make the boot too tight. Try a different sock thickness.
Child's feet feel cold.
While waterproof, these boots are not insulated. For colder weather, ensure your child wears warm, thick socks, preferably wool or thermal boot socks, to provide insulation and warmth.
Boots are difficult to put on or take off.
Check if the boots are the correct size. If they are a snug fit, using a thin or silky sock can help the foot slide in and out more easily. For taking off, sitting down and using the heel of the opposite foot to push off the heel of the boot can help. Ensure no bunching of socks inside.
White powdery film appearing on the boots ('blooming').
This is a natural process unique to high-quality rubber, where insoluble particles rise to the surface. It is not a defect and does not affect performance. Wipe the bloom off with a damp cloth. For a more polished look, you can use a silicone spray or Hunter Boot Buffer specifically designed for rubber footwear.
FAQs
How do I choose the correct size for my child?
We recommend measuring your child's foot and comparing it to the Hunter size chart. It's often best to size up slightly if your child is between sizes, to allow for thick socks and room for growth, but avoid boots that are too large as they can cause tripping.
Are these boots suitable for cold weather or snow?
These boots provide waterproof protection but are not insulated. For cold weather or snow, we recommend pairing them with warm, thick socks, such as Hunter's fleece boot socks, to provide insulation.
How often should I clean the boots?
Clean the boots after each use, especially if they are muddy or dirty. Regular cleaning helps maintain the rubber's condition and prevents dirt from drying and potentially cracking the material over time.
Can these boots be used for everyday wear?
Yes, while designed for wet and outdoor conditions, their comfortable fit and durable construction make them suitable for everyday wear when conditions call for waterproof footwear, like walks to school on a rainy day.
What is the 'bloom' on my Hunter boots and how do I remove it?
Blooming is a common process in natural rubber boots, where a white, powdery film appears on the surface. It's not a defect but a sign of high-quality rubber. You can easily remove it by wiping the boots with a damp cloth. For best results, use a specialized rubber boot buffer or silicone spray.
