Wellington boots are the ultimate in practical footwear for the outdoor enthusiast. Whether you own a horse and spend lots of time in the yard or in the fields or simply enjoy outdoors life, a pair of Wellington boots will always put you in good stead.

Wellington boots underwent a revolution in 1999 when many manufacturers began to use neoprene in addition to rubber in the making of the boot. Demand rose for extremely comfortable and waterproof boots that would withstand tough conditions. The addition of neoprene in the leg and cushioning in the foot bed significantly increased the comfort of the Wellington boot.

Neoprene is a super-dense, but light, material which is flexible, warm, waterproof and buoyant, and is the material used for making maritime survival suits. The quality of a Wellington boot is evident in the amount of neoprene that is used, the thicker the neoprene the higher the comfort level and insulation.
