{"title":"Barefoot Rain Boots \u0026 Gumboots","description":"\u003cp\u003eSOL Footwear's barefoot rain boots are soft, waterproof gumboots that fold up small enough to carry in your bag. The Saguaro Brisk I is made from a PVC-free material that keeps out rain and mud, with a wide toe box and a flat, zero-drop sole. They are mid-calf, so shorter than a classic gumboot. Pick fleece-lined for cold, wet days or non-fleece for summer storms. Most of our pairs are in UK5 to UK7, so they work well as ladies' gumboots, and the non-fleece version also comes in a few larger sizes.

In South Africa most people call them gumboots, and you'll also hear wellies or wellington boots. They all mean a waterproof boot you pull on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAre Saguaro rain boots waterproof?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The Brisk I is made from a soft, PVC-free material that's waterproof and mud-resistant. It's mid-calf, so for deep puddles or flooded paths a taller boot will keep you drier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs PVC or rubber better for rain boots?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth keep water out. PVC boots tend to be firmer, while rubber boots are softer but heavier. The Brisk I is made from a soft, PVC-free material that's light enough to fold and roll up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I choose my rain boot size?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSaguaro sizes run slightly large, so don't automatically go up a size. If you're between sizes or want to wear thick socks, WhatsApp us on 075 111 2222 and we'll help you pick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do you wear rain boots as a woman?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMid-calf rain boots look good with skinny jeans tucked in, leggings, cropped trousers or a dress. Red stands out on a grey day, and black \u0026amp; brown goes with almost anything.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are the best gumboots in South Africa?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt depends on the job. For building sites, farms or factories that need a steel toe, choose a safety gumboot; the Brisk I isn't one. For everyday rain, gardening and travel, look for a light, waterproof boot that folds away and gives your toes room. That's what the Brisk I is made for.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"saguaro-red-brisk-i-foldable-barefoot-rain-boots-mid-calf","title":"Saguaro Brisk I Barefoot Rain Boots (Gumboots) – Red, Fleece-Lined","description":"\u003cp\u003ePackable freedom meets waterproof protection: take them anywhere, then stash them away.
