Quality Rain Boots Are Important For Your Health In A Very Real Way

By Patty Goff


Variety is one of the huge benefits of variable fashion for all seasons. There are so many different styles of rain boots available, that in some cases they do not even look like they resemble their name. They however do still have one thing in common and that is that they are made out of rubber. They can either be long or short depending on the wearer's preference.

They are normally worn after or during a rain storm where one wants to protect themselves again the mud and moisture. The general height for them is knee height but nowadays, shorter ones are also very common. Those that are specifically made for certain industries have reinforced toe areas for protection. Many industries will only allow their workers to wear these as it can also protect against chemical spills and also for hygiene purposes in food procession businesses.

Another well liked one is the Falcon short boot but unfortunately it only comes in black. The length reaches midway up the calf and has two buckles. The first one is at the top just under the lip of the edge while the second lies just on the ankle. They have a low heel with thick soles and a diamond appearance to them.

For those that just want a simple design to work in the garden with, the dirty Laundry Rodwell will be a good choice. They come in black and white, navy and green or yellow and brown. They even have an easy method of pulling on for less effort. They are available in all sizes and are quite reasonably priced.

When World War 1 started the soldiers needed suitable footwear while walking in the muddy trenches and flooded areas. The rubber company at the time had to send in a request to the War Office so that a suitable boot could be made. This made the mills run day and night to fulfill the vast amount of quantities that were needed for the soldiers. Well over one million pairs where made all within a very short space of time.

They were normally made out of rubber which is very water resistant but lately these have advanced to manmade synthetics. They can be made out of nylon, cordura as well as polyester. They are very light and are made out of Gore-Tex which has many tiny pores to help air circulation. Gaiters come with zips or Velcro openings as well as draw cords. Elastics seem to be the more favored out of them all as the Velcro does tend to attract dirt and the zips will eventually break.

For the men there is a Cole Haans Wedge Lace Boot that is waterproof and is a lace up. The upper part of the shoe is leather while the sole is rubber. It is lightweight and has a midsole made of leather as well. The color copper will compliment any outfit that is worn.

In the 1920s, rubber boots were introduced into Russia and became an instant hit. Seventeen rubber factories were built and even during the summer and spring months these were worn. They may be called many different names worldwide but the general use for them will always stay the same.
