The Hunter Original Short Wellies are designed to excel in various wet environments. Their 100% waterproof construction means you can confidently tackle puddles, muddy paths, and downpours without concern for wet feet. The natural rubber provides flexibility for comfortable movement, whether you're walking the dog, navigating a festival field, or working in the garden. The Hunter Original tread pattern offers reliable traction, reducing slips on wet grass, slick pavements, or uneven muddy terrain. The shorter shaft makes them easier to move in and more versatile for different outfits compared to their taller counterparts, while still providing ample protection below the calf. The recycled polyester lining adds a layer of comfort, making them pleasant to wear for extended periods.
Getting started with your Hunter Original Short Wellies is simple. They are designed for a pull-on style, allowing for quick and easy wear. No complicated fastenings or adjustments are needed. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks for comfort and warmth, especially in cooler temperatures.
These wellies are designed for adult women and are sized to a UK 7. They pair well with a variety of clothing, from jeans and leggings to dresses and skirts, offering versatile wet-weather style. Consider thicker socks for a snugger fit or for added warmth.
Proper care is crucial to maintain the appearance and longevity of your natural rubber wellies.
Cleaning: After use, wipe down your boots with a clean, damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used. Avoid harsh detergents or solvents.
Drying: Allow your boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, direct sunlight) as this can damage the rubber.
Maintaining Rubber: Natural rubber can sometimes develop a white, powdery 'bloom'. This is a natural process and not a defect. To restore the shine and condition, use a Hunter Boot Shine or Rubber Boot Buffer (e.g., product code WFS1000RMA). Apply as directed on the product for best results.
Storage: Store your wellies upright in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Avoid folding or creasing the rubber for extended periods.
