STEP ONE

Prepare your boots by removing any residue such as mud and dirt.

Wipe off excess mud with a cloth while your boots are still wet. If the dirt on your rubber boots is dry, we recommend removing it with a soft brush.

STEP TWO

Clean your boots with lukewarm water.

Remove any mud residue with a cloth and lukewarm water. This will also help remove any contaminants you may have accidentally walked through, such as chemicals or animal waste, which can damage the material.

STEP THREE

Allow the boots to dry naturally at room temperature

Allow the boots to dry naturally at room temperature (away from artificial heat sources). While it may be tempting to leave the boots next to a heater, artificial heat will affect the upper material and can lead to cracks and splits.

Care for your boots

Caring for the upper of your boots will help keep it supple, extend its life and minimise the risk of cracking and splitting. There are many rubber boot care products on the market, such as Grangers Rubber Boot Care Spray.

HOW TO BEST EXTEND THE LIFE OF YOUR MUCK® BOOTS.


PUTTING ON YOUR BOOTS

When putting on your boots, make sure the boot shaft is fully extended. Our neoprene upper can be a close fit, and if you don't pull the boots out to their full height or tuck too much trouser fabric inside, this can lead to excessive creasing at the ankle joints.

TAKING OFF YOUR BOOTS

The best way to take them off is with a boot jack. There are many boot jacks on the market, including our own. Avoid using the other foot on the heel of the boot or a step, staircase or rock to remove them, as this can damage the boot and put excessive pressure on the heel and sole, which can lead to damage.

STORING YOUR BOOTS

Avoid storing your boots in direct sunlight, near artificial heat or at sub-zero temperatures, as this can cause the rubber to become brittle, deteriorate and crack. It is best to store your boots upright to avoid kinks and creases — crumpled newspaper can help with this.

LEATHER AND FABRIC UPPERS

Use a suitable leather care product for leather uppers. Once dry, fabric/textile uppers can be gently brushed with a soft brush to remove any remaining mud.

*Our boots are truly fantastic and with the right care they should last a long time and meet the highest demands even in the toughest conditions. However, they are designed for work and walking. In particular, our knee-high boots are not suitable for driving or riding, unless expressly stated. Improper use can shorten their lifespan.
