What are Wellington boots?

Wellington boots, also known as wellies or rain boots are a type of waterproof boot that are commonly worn in wet or muddy conditions. They are made from rubber or synthetic materials and typically reach from just above the ankle up to knee height.

They are known for their durability, comfort, and waterproofness, making them a popular choice for outdoor activities, such as gardening, farming, or festivals.

Wellington boots come in a range of colours and styles, and some even have patterned or printed designs. They can also be lined with warm materials, such as felt, to provide added insulation in cold weather.

Overall, Wellington boots are a versatile and practical footwear choice for a variety of outdoor activities, especially in wet or muddy conditions.

Fashion designers have modernised the Wellington boot in recent years, by changing elements of the boot from the heel size and shape, the length of the boot, the materials used and overall style to appeal to fashion followers.
