FAQs
Are these boots suitable for very cold weather?
These boots are designed primarily for waterproofing and general outdoor use. While they offer some insulation, they are not specifically rated for extreme cold and may require thicker socks for very low temperatures.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the UK size guide provided by Regatta. It's recommended to measure your child's foot length and compare it to the sizing chart, allowing a little room for growth and thicker socks.
Can these boots be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these boots as it can damage the waterproof membrane and adhesives. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.
What is the warranty period for these boots?
Please refer to the retailer's specific warranty policy for details on coverage and duration, as this can vary.
How durable are the rubber outsoles?
The rubber outsoles are designed for durability in typical hiking and play conditions. Regular cleaning and care will help maintain their grip and longevity.
Can these boots be worn for general school wear or just hiking?
While designed for hiking, their comfort, durability, and waterproof features make them suitable for active children's everyday wear, especially during seasons with unpredictable weather.
Troubleshooting
Boots do not seem waterproof.
Ensure all laces are tied tightly and check for any visible tears or damage to the material. Reapply waterproofing treatment if necessary.
Child complains of discomfort.
Ensure the correct size is being worn. Check that socks are not bunched up inside. Allow for a brief break-in period if the boots are new.

Clean the outsole of mud or debris. The angled lugs are designed for grip, but extreme conditions may still pose a challenge. Ensure the child is walking with appropriate caution.
