Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Your Hunter Original Short Boots require no special setup. Simply put them on and ensure they fit comfortably. We recommend wearing them with appropriate socks to enhance comfort and manage moisture.
Compatibility
These boots are designed for adult women. This specific pair is a UK Size 4. Please refer to Hunter's official sizing chart if you are unsure about your size, as rubber boots generally offer a less flexible fit than other footwear. They are compatible with various outfits, from casual wear to outdoor attire.
Care
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your boots:
- Cleaning: Wipe your boots clean with a damp cloth after each use to remove dirt and mud. For stubborn dirt, use mild soap and water. Allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources.
- "Blooming": Hunter rubber boots are made from natural rubber, and occasionally, a white powdery film, known as 'blooming', may appear on the surface. This is a characteristic of high-quality natural rubber and is not a defect. It can be easily wiped clean with a damp cloth or by using a specialist Hunter Boot Buffer spray.
- Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Keeping them upright helps maintain their shape. Avoid folding or creasing the boots for prolonged periods.
- Avoid Solvents: Do not use chemical solvents, petroleum-based products, or harsh brushes, as these can damage the rubber.
- Drying Interior: If the interior becomes damp, allow the boots to air dry thoroughly by standing them upright in a well-ventilated area.
