Festival Welly Buying Checklist

No matter which festival you're heading to, here's what to look for:

H

Height

Tall boots for muddy festivals (Download, Creamfields). Short boots for urban or seaside events.

C

Comfort

Cushioned insoles are a must for all-day wear. Look for memory foam or neoprene lining.

G

Grip

Deep-tread soles prevent slips on wet grass and hillsides. Essential for Boomtown and Green Man.

W

Weight

Lightweight boots reduce fatigue. PU and EVA materials are lighter than traditional rubber.

F

Fit

Allow room for thick socks. Try on in the afternoon when feet are slightly swollen.

S

Style

Printed and colourful wellies make you easier to spot. Practical meets personality.
