Dog walking wellies, also known as rain boots, are a type of waterproof footwear that is specifically designed for walking dogs in wet or muddy conditions. These boots typically have a tall, rubber or rubber-like material construction that reaches up the calf, and are designed to keep your feet dry and provide good traction on slippery surfaces. They are popular among dog walkers, as well as people who enjoy outdoor activities such as hiking, fishing, and gardening. What Are The Features Of A Perfect Dog Walking Wellies? Combining a rubber lower panel with a smart, full-grain waterproof leather and padded fabric lace-up upper, these boots are a great option for walks with puddles and wet grass, when you don't need the full-length waterproofing of a traditional welly. The contoured, memory-foam footbed offers superb comfort and a secure fit, while the outsole is durable and grippy in all but the muddiest conditions. A great-looking and versatile boot.

The early days of the welly boot leather were undoubtedly the only boot anyone would choose. Products develop, materials improve, and designs change like anything else. Rubber and Synthetic PVC wellies are now a superb choice for any dog walking wellies. If we had to choose between any, we would select rubber wellies. They offer so much more support and are much more durable. I walk dogs for a living… and am extremely impressed with the quality, comfort and durability of these wellies, after being let down in the past by other brands. Thank-you Rudds! Sheepskin and wool turn up occasionally as welly linings. They’re supremely warm but also hard to clean, and won’t smell particularly nice when your boots get wet. How do I get the right fit? Waterproofing . That’s what wellies are for, after all. All our recommended wellington boots are waterproof, although a couple do have fabric sections on their uppers and calf sections. So, while they’ll keep water off your feet, they’re not waders! For maximum waterproofness, go for a rubber upper and sole, and Gore-Tex lining.Rudds have designed a hard wearing, lifestyle-led wellington boot. A welly that suits the needs of two key markets – equine and dog walking. It was always our intention to create a welly that was warm, supported and springy. A hard wearing boot that gripped the ground rather than having mud filling the treads and adding weight. A boot designed for all day use focusing on foot posture. Our current range are called Riding Rudds specifically to set them apart from other wellies on the market. This is because they allow for safe and easy stirrup removal. Asides from that they are perfect wellies for dog walking, fully supported and cushioned. There’s steel mid-plate under the sole stopping any sharpness and cold underfoot. Extra weight in the form of mud and clay on the tread is not an issue. Grip is good and long walks are a breeze. Rudds are designed to be worn for long periods, something dog walkers and yard workers will appreciate.

Anything longer than an ankle boot will need to feel comfortable on your calves. Look for a snug fit that doesn’t wobble around while you walk, but which isn’t so tight that you can’t move comfortably. Look out for wellies with an adjustable strap on the calf, so you can change the width of the wellies depending on your own calf size. A couple of our recommended wellies have adjustable straps and flexible gussets to help you get the perfect fit. Also look for zips to help you get long wellies on and off. Grip is almost as important as waterproofing if you’re intending to walk through mud. Dog walks in rainy conditions can be hazardous affairs if you don’t have boots with grippy rubber soles. The more nodes and bumps the soles have, the better they’ll be at gripping to a surface. That’ll make them more comfortable to walk in, too, because you don’t have to work so hard to stay upright! However, a narrower tread makes for easier walking on a hard surface. The very best wellies combine both types of tread. Next, we have the Dunlop Blizzard boots with a fleece lining. Keeping you warm and dry with fleece protection, these boots are perfect for walking your doggie. A great feature that Aigle Parcours wellies provide is a warranty to return them if, for whatever reason, they decide to leak.

Boot socks

Neoprene is an insulating lining material for winter wellies. It’s soft, superbly waterproof, and very warm. A bit too warm for summer wellies, in fact. And it can get pricey. Fleece is a budget (and less waterproof) alternative to neoprene. Wellies are just the thing for the mud and endless puddles of a great British winter. But which come out on top when it comes to walking? With their slip-on design and less-than-grippy tread, wellies can rapidly become more of a chore than a pleasure to walk in. Leather makes for durable and hard-wearing boots. Manufacturers often treat leather with a protective coating to ensure it stays soft and waterproof for years. It’s warm, breathable, flexible and luxurious, but you’re looking at a higher price tag.
