Investing a little time in caring for your Le Chameau wellies can make all the difference. With these simple maintenance tips and recommended care products, you can ensure your boots stay comfortable, stylish, and functional for years to come.

How to Maintain Your Le Chameau Wellies

  1. Clean After Every Use

    • Rinse your wellies with clean water to remove dirt and debris.
    • Use a soft brush or cloth for tougher mud, but avoid harsh detergents that can damage the natural rubber.

  2. Dry Properly

    • Allow your boots to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources such as radiators or fireplaces.
    • Stuff them with newspaper or use boot shapers to maintain their shape.

  3. Condition the Rubber

    • Regularly apply a rubber conditioning spray to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
    • Avoid leaving your wellies in direct sunlight or exposing them to extreme temperatures.

  4. Store with Care

    • Store your boots in a cool, dry place, ideally upright or hanging.
    • Avoid folding or bending them for long periods, as this may cause permanent creases.

  5. Inspect for Wear

    • Check your wellies for signs of wear, such as sole damage or thinning rubber, and address any issues promptly to prolong their life.
