About this deal

Kids get everywhere, from up trees to in the middle of muddy puddles, so these wellies come with peace of mind since they have rigid soles for better grip. Thanks to their pull-on design, your little one should be able to pull this Wellington boot on by themselves, and when it comes to heading home, they can be wiped clean from mud and the rest.

Neoprene, which was originally used for diving suits, is an insulating material that prevents body heat from dissipating; these boots are comfort-rated for temperatures as low as -15°C. Natural rubber Wellington boots are made from tapping the raw latex from rubber trees, which provided it is done responsibly, doesn't harm the tree, and enables on-going sustainable rubber production. In fact with trees providing vital carbon-sequestering 'services', products made from sustainably-managed rubber tree plantations can be beneficial for a healthy ecosystem. Investing in the best wellington boots for your budget should mean you will be able to continue to wear them for years and years, and won't be adding to unsustainable landfill by throwing away cheaper boots year on year as they split. Choose from navy or yellow and rely on these wellies for a rainy day, a park walk, a trip to the forest or even for every day wear in winter. Searching for a pair of wellies for your mini me? These ones from JoJo Maman Bebe are highly-rated among parents, and for good reason. They are made from natural rubber to ensure that they are flexible for little feet, plus they are fleece-lined for extra comfort, and to keep their toes warm.Wellington boots are generally credited with having been commissioned into life by the Duke of Wellington, who, around 1815, tasked his shoemaker with crafting a mid-calf boot made from supple calfskin leather that was comfortable enough to ride in, smart enough for informal evening attire and waterproof enough to withstand the British countryside. A short Wellington boot can be a much more versatile option than a knee-high welly, and this waterproof Chelsea boot from Joules takes versatility to the extreme, with the smart lace-up design working just as well for a wet jaunt into town as it does for a walk in the muddy woods.

Around 40 years later, at the time natural rubber was first being transformed into tyres for cars, the first natural rubber boot was designed. Highly waterproof, this footwear first became widely manufactured during World War I when it was an unfortunate essential for life in the flooded, muddy trenches. Hunter’s Original Tall Wellington Boot (also known as Hunter’s Original Tall Rain Boot in the US) has been a core line since they were first introduced in 1956, and have helped the brand–with the aid of many a Hunter-clad celebrity Glastonbury-goer–to achieve the seemingly impossible; turning the humble welly into a fashion icon. Are Wellington boots sustainable? Sales of Hunter wellies soared when Lady Diana Spencer - the future Princess Diana - was photographed wearing a pair on Balmoral Estate during her early courtship with Prince Charles.
