The Hunter Original Short Wellies are engineered for dependable performance across various wet weather scenarios. Their 100% waterproof construction makes them an indispensable choice for rainy commutes, gardening, walking your dog through muddy parks, or attending outdoor events and festivals. The robust natural rubber, which is assembled over three days and vulcanised, provides excellent durability, resisting punctures and scuffs that often occur in outdoor environments.
The classic Hunter Original tread pattern on the outsole ensures stable footing on slick surfaces like wet grass, muddy paths, and slippery pavements, significantly reducing the risk of slips. The shorter height of these wellies, compared to their taller counterparts, offers increased flexibility around the ankle, allowing for greater ease of movement and comfort during activities that involve bending or squatting. The 100% recycled polyester lining adds a layer of comfort, making them suitable for extended wear. These boots are a practical and stylish solution for anyone needing reliable protection from the elements without compromising on iconic design.
These Hunter Original Short Wellies are designed for straightforward use. Simply pull them on your feet. No complex adjustments or break-in period is typically required, though natural rubber may feel slightly stiff initially. Ensure you select the correct size (this variant is UK 7) for an optimal and comfortable fit.
These wellies are designed for adults, specifically with a 'Female' gender attribute, though their functionality can be appreciated by anyone seeking waterproof protection. They are perfectly compatible with all types of wet weather conditions, from light drizzle to heavy rain, and various outdoor activities where dry feet are essential. For optimal comfort and warmth, particularly in colder temperatures, pair them with appropriate wellington boot socks.
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your natural rubber wellies:
Cleaning: After each use, especially if muddy, wipe the boots clean with a damp cloth or rinse with lukewarm water. Allow them to air dry thoroughly at room temperature.
Drying: Never dry your boots near direct heat sources like radiators, fireplaces, or in direct strong sunlight, as this can cause the rubber to crack or degrade.
Preventing Blooming: A white, powdery film known as 'blooming' can appear on natural rubber. This is a sign of high-quality rubber and does not affect performance. To remove and prevent blooming, use Hunter Rubber Boot Buffer.
Restoring Shine: To restore the original sheen and protect the rubber, apply Hunter Boot Shine as directed.
Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep them upright to prevent creasing and maintain their shape.
