What Is Neoprene?

To put it simply, neoprene is a synthetic rubber material well known for its superior insulation properties. Think of wetsuits – they are a necessity for surfers because of the warmth they provide surfers while in the ocean. Wetsuits are able to do this because they are made of (you guessed it!) neoprene.

Neoprene is not only known for its insulation properties, but also for being water-resistant. Consider the fact that wellies are made to withstand wet and muddy conditions, and you will instantly recognise why neoprene is a great material to use in the production of Wellington boots, and why Merry People has built it into the iconic design of our waterproof Wellingtons!

How Neoprene Protects Wellies

Wellies made with neoprene are indeed waterproof and a great way to keep your feet warm and dry in poor weather conditions – they are also good for snow and easy to clean because of this!

If you are looking for a waterproof pair of boots, be sure to look for a pair of neoprene wellies made of high-quality materials and reinforced seams, such as our highly-rated Bobbi Ankle Wellington. This will ensure that you are getting the most amount of protection against moisture of all kinds.
