Short Wellies

Our boots run true to size, so we recommend ordering your normal shoe size. The size guide on the wellies product page shows the size measurements making it easy to compare our boots to an existing pair of shoes you already own. For half sizes, we recommend sizing down. Our wellies are unisex.

We offer free UK returns.

You can always exchange or return your wellies order so long as:

They are unworn, undamaged, in re-sellable condition (i.e. no creases or wear on soles), and in their original packaging.

Underlying the beautiful design, the Merry People original wellington boot is underpinned with functional credibility. For the exterior, our wildly popular wellington boots are built with natural rubber outer and sole. The weatherproofing capabilities will keep you dry year-round for all your outdoor adventures - be it a wet, wintery commute, morning walks on damp spring days, planting your autumn harvest in the garden, or when you get those summer rains while camping.

Inside, our Bobbi ankle wellies are fully lined with 4mm of neoprene, the same material used in wetsuits. This unique feature makes the Merry People Wellies comfortable and cushioned from heel to toe. The neoprene also serves to keep you warm and cozy in winter and allows our rain boots to be rated for below-freezing temperatures. Since all waterproof boots can be a bit toasty in the UK summers months, we recommend pairing your wellies with natural fibre socks to make them a bit lighter and breathable.

With front and back pull tabs, they are easy to slide on and off. Our wellington boots also include a removable insole to allow for more cushion, or to create a bit more space for orthotics, bunions, or a wider foot.

Did we mention our wellington boots are cruelty-free and certified vegan?

Merry People Wellies come in a variety of sizes. Our wellie boots are designed to be a standard width B and fit true to size using European (EU) sizing converted to UK sizing.

If you are a half size, we recommend sizing down, e.g., if you wear a 5.5, buy a 5. The initial fit should be snug for men and women as the natural rubber of the wellies will soften with wear. If you are uncertain about your boot size, we recommend measuring your foot the inner sole of a favourite shoe, then comparing those measurements to the ones on our handy size chart, available here . You can also look at each review for more info and to see what size the reviewers recommend.

Being fabricated with natural materials means our boots will soften and stretch with wear. If they feel a bit too snug at first, we recommend removing the inner sole for the first few days to help with the fit, and you may find that after a few days of wear they will have relaxed and you can pop the inner sole back into place. And don’t worry if you need to keep the inner sole out; our wellies are built with arch support and cushioning in the main sole ensuring your comfort!

We often get asked if our ankle rain boots fit wide feet or if you can stretch your rubber boots. The short answer is yes! The natural outer rubber will soften to allow for wider feet or bunions. Similarly, the inner neoprene lining has similar properties to memory foam and it will soften, stretch, and mould to your feet over time.

If, however, the fit doesn’t feel right, you can always return them to us for an exchange size or a full refund on your wellies.

Do I need to wear socks with my wellies?

With a cushy neoprene lining, socks are not necessary but we do recommend wearing them with our wellies. It will make it easier to get your boots on and off, plus it is also super cute to style them with a flashy pair of socks! For some inspiration on the many ways to wear socks and other accessories with your wellies, check out our Merry People socks and wellies blog.

Can I wear ankle boots in the snow?

Yes you sure can! Our boots have been tested for sub-zero temperatures keeping your toes dry and toasty-warm during the UK winters.

Are your rain boots comfortable?

Our wellington boot is built with arch support in the sole and a cushy neoprene lining.

Can I put orthotics inside the rain boots?

Yes, the inner sole inside the boot can be removed and replaced with your orthotics. If it still doesn't feel right, you can always return them to us for a full refund.

Should rain boots be one size bigger?

No, we recommend the inner sole of the boot to be around the same length as your foot (no less). The neoprene lining around your foot will soften over time. We suggest you go with your standard shoe size (don't order bigger for socks.) If you wear thick socks, then measure your foot wearing the thicker socks.

What are your wellies made of?

The Wellington ankle boot is made using natural rubber and lined with neoprene, making them 100% waterproof. To learn more about what makes natural rubber so special, please visit our Merry People Wellie Boots Blog.
