  • The brand advises that a white wax film may appear on the surface of the rubber boots and that it can be wiped off with a damp cloth. This "blooming" effect is not a defect. Blooming is caused when the boots are exposed to extreme temperatures or temperature swings and the wax helps prevent the rubber from weathering.

All about Hunter

If you want a place where people appreciate the benefits of a well-fitting, waterproof boot, Scotland seems a natural choice. Mr. Henry Lee Norris most certainly thought so when he set up shop with his master boot makers back in 1856. Originally, Hunter rain boots were designed for traversing Scotland's rugged terrain and combating its unpredictable weather. Since then, the reputation of Hunter men's rain boots, Hunter women's rain boots and Hunter children's rain boots for performance, durability and outstanding comfort has become legendary worldwide.

Although their links to the present day cover over 150 years and an awful lot of advancement, there are things about a pair of Hunter rain boots that Henry would still recognize: the care, the craftsmanship, and the refusal to compromise on quality.

The first of the famous Hunter green Wellingtons were seen back in 1956. Ever since, they've been mastering the art of welly making for children and adults, by using the best of new materials, introducing revolutionary technology and replying on good old fashioned hand craftsmanship. What sets Hunter rain boots apart from the competition lies in part to a closely guarded secret process. The result is a much stronger, watertight boot that will perform under the toughest conditions.

Hunter is equally proud of the things that have changed and the things that stay the same. The weather's just as wet and the Hunter rain boots are just as good! Today, Hunter remains the preferred welly brand for men, women and children who like to work hard and play hard. Wherever your pursuits may lie, be they in a distant wooded field or amidst the bustle of city streets, Hunter has the perfect footwear for keeping up with your unique lifestyle.

Be careful! If you are a woman with normal to larger calves, order the huntress. They are made for women. These originals are unisex so the shaft is higher and the calves are more narrow than the huntress. Otherwise, they are hunter boots... awesome.

I was originally very pleased with these boots. Very comfortable, excellent fit, roomy enough in the calf to tuck jeans in. However, within 8 months of purchase, both buckles had broken, and the insoles in the heel were completely worn through. The seam over the right big toe had split, and the crease over the top of the foot on the left boot, where it bends when you walk, cracked. I'm hard on boots, and wear them daily working with animals on the farm, but for the price I expect a cheap pair of cheap wellies would have lasted just as long. Very disappointed in the durability and quality of materials.

I've had a pair of these wellies in black for a year now, and oh dang, they are stylin'. You could wade through a puddle a foot deep in these babies, too. I got the boot in the original finish, and they do develop the whitish waxy patina you may have read complaints about in other reviews. I happen to like that look, but if you don't, then maybe try a pair with the glossy finish. About sizing too: I am quite tall and fairly thin, and got the boot in size 6 even though I wear 6.5-7 in other shoes. If I liked wearing super thick socks or was a little heavier in the calves, I would have had to size up. For walking around town the boots are definitely comfortable enough, but I tried wearing them to work (I'm a barista/line cook) and they killed my feet by the end of a 6-hour shift. I like to wear them with tights and shorts or dresses.

I'd also recommend: Dansko, Dr. Martens, Frye, TOMS

These boots are the best rain boots out there. I know they may seem really expensive; however, they are definitely worth it. I've gone through a couple pairs of rain boots while being in college and it's safe to say that these boots are a good investment. They are comfortable, durable, and high enough so that rain doesn't get in between your jeans and the boot itself. They run true to size and are not too narrow, an issue I had with a previous pair of rain boots. They look and fit great with leggings, skinny jeans, and you could also wear them with shorts, but I would suggest wearing high socks underneath so that they're not pressed right up against your skin. Everyone should have this rain boot!

I love these boots. The build quality is wonderful. They do develop a "bloom" or white film after wearing them. I've been using Armor All to restore the luster and color.
