Description

  • Video Description View the Video Description for this product! (Please note that the color shown in the video may no longer be available.)
  • Puddle splash in quality and style.
  • Hunter™ boots are made by hand using 28 individual parts and a fine attention to detail.
  • Made of vulcanized natural rubber.
  • Knee-high fit insures that no moisture gets in.
  • Built on an orthopedic last so that little feet and ankles are supported.
  • Comfort cushioned footbed.
  • Reflective safety patches.
  • Woven nylon lining.
  • Calendered natural rubber outsole for sure-footing.
  • 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.
  • Please note: Shaft heights will vary from size to size. For example, 11.00" shaft height is for a size 2 Youth.
  • Measurements:
    • Heel Height: 34 in
    • Weight: 1 lb 5 oz
    • Circumference: 14 14 in
    • Shaft: 11 in
  • Product measurements were taken using size 2 Youth, width M. Please note that measurements may vary by size.

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® Kids rain boots were designed for traversing Scotland’s rugged terrain and combating its unpredictable weather. Since then, the reputation of 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 Kids 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 by using the best of new materials, introducing revolutionary technology and relying on good old fashioned hand craftsmanship. What sets Hunter Kids 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 Kids rain boots are just as good! Today, Hunter remains the preferred welly brand for children who like to play hard. Wherever your child's 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 the unique lifestyle of your child.

I wear a size 5.5 woman's and Youth size 4 fits great. I also bought the fleece socks youth size 4-6. The boot fits tighter w/ the socks but not uncomfortable. Because they are youth size, they do come 1-2 inches below the knee. The adults ones are taller. Since I am 5 ft tall, they look fine. Love my Hunters!

Made in China. Buyer beware. If you think (as I did) that you were buying boots made in Scotland, you had better make sure. Because the box these boots came in clearly states Made in China. Admittedly, I might be over reacting as most everything is made in China. But, the first pair of Hunters I bought for my daughter were made in Scotland. I liked the idea that my money was supporting an independent company steeped in tradition. Now that goes out the window with the Made in China tag. I won't be sending these back as they were a gift for my daughter, but I won't be buying another pair either.

Finally boots that fit in the calf! I have purchased and returned 3-4 different rainboots (Huntress, Tretorn etc). All have been too tall and too tight in the calf. These Youth Hunters are the best! I am 5'2" and have a 15" calf. I wear a 6.5 shoe and the US 5 Youth size fit great. No bunching. Not a ton of room in the calf, but I can tuck jeans in and no "muffin top". If you buy the youth size in lieu of the adult, note that they come with two reflective markers on the back of the boot (looks fine to me). Give these boots a try if you've had issues with calf fit and boot height. Boot makers need to realize that the boot shaft comes up higher (close to the knee) on shorter women and that area is at a wider part of the calf. Bootmakers - either make a "petite" height boot or allow for a larger calf circumference.

I'm 5'2 and I found that the adult Hunter boots were overwhelming. I didn't mind the reflectors so I went ahead and bought a pair in the youth size! As a woman's size 6, I kept on debating between Youth 4 or Youth 5. I ended up choosing Youth 5 and I am quite pleased with it. They are loose with bare feet and shorts, but with jeans tucked in they fit more snug in the calf. They are still looser with thinner socks, and with thick socks they are perfect. My advice for ladies with size 6 feet: If you tend to go down in shoe size (5.5), choose Youth 4. If you tend to go up a size in shoes (7.5) or a TRUE size 6 that cannot fit into 5.5, choose Youth 5. You will want to wear thick socks with these in the winter and Youth 4 would be too snug.

Rain boots can be masculine, heavy and stiff. I was hesitate to purchase this because I couldn't wrap my head around the existence of comfortable rain boots. But I ordered these and it is light weight, flexible and ultimately comfortable! I'm usually 5/5.5/6 so I ordered a 4 in Chocolate. It fits great even w/ the fleece welly socks (in small). It's not too fitted where my feet can't breathe and it definitely has wiggle room w/ the socks. I definitely don't regret paying a ton w/ the socks for comfortable and feminine rain boots!
