Your Hunter Original Kids Wellington Boots are ready to wear straight out of the box. Simply slip them on. Ensure your child wears appropriate socks to enhance comfort and fit, especially with the knee-high design.
These boots are designed for unisex kids within the age group. They are suitable for various outdoor activities in wet or muddy conditions. Please refer to the size indicated (e.g., UK 5 for this specific model) to ensure a proper fit.
Proper care will help maintain the appearance and prolong the life of your boots. The rubber material is durable, but can develop a white, powdery 'bloom' over time, which is a natural process for high-quality rubber.
Cleaning: After use, wipe the boots clean with a damp cloth to remove mud and dirt. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not dry them near direct heat sources (like radiators or in direct sunlight) as this can damage the rubber.
Storage: Store the boots upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid folding or creasing the boots to prevent permanent marks.
Blooming: If 'blooming' occurs, it can be easily removed with a Hunter Boot Buffer or a silicone spray, restoring the original matte finish. This is not a defect, but a characteristic of high-quality natural rubber.
