Full details
The Hunter First Classic Wellingtons are premium, waterproof boots specifically engineered for infants and toddlers with developing feet. Featuring a flatter sole and rounded foot shape, they provide the necessary stability and comfort for young children learning to walk or play in wet conditions; however, parents should note that as rubber boots, they are best suited for seasonal outdoor play rather than all-day everyday wear.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these boots suitable for wide feet?
The First Classic series features a rounded foot shape which generally provides a more accommodating fit for most foot widths in infants.
How do I determine the right size?
Hunter UK sizes for children typically correlate to standard measurements; ensure you measure the foot with socks on and leave a small amount of room for growth.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, you should never put rubber boots in the washing machine. Hand-cleaning with a damp cloth is the only recommended method.
Are they insulated for snow?
These boots have a cotton lining and are primarily waterproof. While they protect against wet, they are not specifically insulated for deep or extreme freezing conditions.
What is the material composition?
The boots are handcrafted from natural rubber with a textile cotton lining.
Troubleshooting
White powdery film on the rubber surface
This is a natural process called blooming. Wipe the boots with a damp cloth or use a dedicated rubber boot buffer to restore the finish.
Boots feel slippery on interior
Ensure the child is wearing moisture-wicking socks to prevent sweat buildup and maintain a better fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Hunter First Classic boots, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme heat sources like radiators, which can cause the rubber to crack. If the boots become muddy, simply wipe the exterior with a damp cloth or rinse with lukewarm water. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or detergents. For the best fit, ensure your child wears appropriate cotton or wool socks to complement the internal cotton lining. Inspect the treads periodically to ensure they remain clear of debris to maintain optimal grip.
