Hunter Women's Huntress Field Wellington Boots

Not every pair of calves was made for a slim welly, and the Hunter Women's Huntress Field Wellington Boots were designed with that in mind. The Huntress has a wider calf for comfort and a lower leg height than the Hunter Original, giving a feminine, traditional shape that is easier to live with if standard tall boots feel tight or long in the leg. It is a handcrafted boot for women who walk, with a matt finish and a cotton lining.

Fit and sizing

This is the boot to look at if you have been searching for wide calf wellies. The pack describes a generous calf fitting, and a webbing strap adds a traditional finishing touch. Sizes run from UK 3 to UK 9. Because the leg is lower than the Hunter Original, it is also worth a look if taller boots feel too long in the leg for you.

Where it shines

As walking wellies, the Hunter Huntress sits on a sturdy Argyll sole that is durable and offers high traction and mud release. That mud release matters on sticky field paths, where a clogged sole quickly becomes a slippery one. It is a comfortable choice for dog walks, farm tracks and wet weekends in the country. Choose Black, Matt Navy Blue or Loganberry.
