Cleaning: After use, wipe down your boots with a damp cloth to remove dirt and mud. Allow them to air dry away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources.\n2. Preventing Blooming: Hunter rubber boots are made from natural rubber, which can sometimes develop a white, powdery film known as 'blooming.' This is a natural process and not a defect. To restore the boots' lustre, use Hunter Boot Shine or Hunter Rubber Boot Buffer as directed.\n3. Storage: Store boots upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid folding or creasing the rubber, which can lead to cracks over time.\n4. Avoid Solvents: Do not use chemical solvents, harsh detergents, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the natural rubber finish.
