Care Instructions

POKEBOO is brought to the UK by Shop Green Today Ltd an online home and garden store based in Yorkshire.
-

The POKEBOO boots won the GOOD DESIGN AWARD 2018.
-

POKEBOO have been designed by ATOM Corporation based in Japan.
-

However, manufacturing of POKEBOO takes place in Thailand where there is access to the natural rubber to create the boots.

 

Cleaning and care instructions:

  • Wash the exterior of the boot with lukewarm water and a mild detergent. If the inside of the boot needs to be washed due to excess perspiration, remove the footbed and wash by hand. Hang to dry. Do not put in the dryer.
  • Do not use near oil or petroleum, which will react with the rubber.
  • When drying, avoid use of a heating element or direct sunlight.
  • You may notice a white powdery film (so-called "blooming") on the rubber. This is characteristic of high-quality natural rubber and is normal. If you wish to remove, please do so with a damp cloth.
  • If the rubber is sticky to touch, then please wipe the boots down before storing them away.

Storage of natural rubber products:

  • Do not store near places exposed to high temperatures, such as heating elements or open fires and avoid direct sunlight which may fade the boot over time.
  • To ensure POKEBOO retains the shape of your feet and legs, please insert used paper (such as newspaper) when not in use.
  • Store POKEBOO in a cool, dark and dry place.

Safety precautions and allergy warning:

  • Some skin types will react to rubber, if an itch or rash occurs, please refrain from using POKEBOO.
  • Please avoid contact with glass or other sharp objects. The boots have been designed with comfort in mind and for light or occasional use.
  • If used for an extended period of time, there may result some sweat residue in the interior of the boots. In this case, please dry the boots in the shade after using.

If you have any further queries please don't hesitate to get in contact with us at hello@pokeboo.uk

so soft :))

These are the most comfortable rubber boots I have ever worn. The thin rubber creases with every movement, and the soles are so thin that the feeling is like wearing rubber socks.

Incredible boots

Just the best boots ever. I wear them everywhere. Exactly what I was looking for. The only thing is they are very slippery on wet mud so I'm looking to buy pokeboo treads whenever I can. But they are so comfortable, extremely light, I have worn them for a good 6 months now almost daily. I do wish the toe box was more foot shaped though!

Deciding again!

I might just commit to getting these Khaki Pokeboos. I am in the process of considering it. I normally take a size 10 to 10.5 and these may be good for general use. I am looking to take up paddle boarding again in a few weeks time. I might just take the next size down to 9 or 9.5 - We shall see if I do so.

Hello Stephen, That's great to hear you're enjoying your Pokeboo and the different uses you have for them. Interestingly, we've had quite a few customers comment that Pokeboo Boots lend themselves quite well to paddle boarding. Thanks so much for your feedback, P :-)

Love the barefoot feel of these.

I just got my pair and I'm in love. So comfy. I plan on working at the horse barn with these..lots of mud. They are perfect. Love they are snug at top to not let sawdust in. Now I think I need another pair for all the other random stuff I do. Especially music festivals when I get rained on. Love the barefoot feel of these. I have worn barefoot shoes for prob 7 years now and they are the only shoes I've been able to walk 20+ miles in and my feet are strong and happy. I'm just wearing these in my house rn and super comfy. Not to thick or hot. And if I want more warmth I'll wear my alpaca or yack socks. Love the boots thank you. Nice to have comfy shoes to work hard in.

Amazing packable barefoot wellies

I was recently given a pair of Pokeboo khaki boots as a gift and they are brilliant! Waterproof, durable, comfortable - a virtually barefoot welly experience. I am delighted with my pair and they are great to wear on rough or smooth terrain, through mud, fords and waterfalls. Pokeboo customer service was excellent too when I needed to swap for a different size. 😊

Excellent Service, Excellent Product!

Not only the boots are fully what I hoped for, but I was more than happy with the excellent service of Pokeboo.uk - Shop Green! Quick and adequate response on my mails, and very helpfull when dutch customs did a bad job. Finally bought a pair for my wife too. Thank you so much for the service

Wow - wellies reinvented - I love them!

These wellies are a joy to put on. Light as a feather, basically a bit like wearing waterproof socks, but with enough of a sole to mean that walking on gravel is totally comfortable.
I really enjoy the sensory experience of going for a walk now! I walk mainly in the New Forest with my children, and we are always wading through streams, and crossing boggy patches, and playing tag on open grassy bits.
These wellies are so light that running around is easy, and you get all the wonderful sensory feedback from the different surfaces you walk on.
Drawbacks: these wellies do not grip well in slippy mud. If you are planning on walking along lots of muddy tracks then these are not the boots for you. (Although the sensory feedback you get squelching in muddy patches of ground is really quite good fun and totally brings out the inner child in me!)
And the rubber is not breathable, so moisture can build up inside the boot if you don't air them properly in between wearing. The insole protects you from this mostly, but I discovered that just chucking them in the boot of the car and leaving them there was not helpful and I was ending each walk with damp toes. Now I bring them indoors each day, and hang them from the tops so that the moisture can evaporate, and my toes remain lovely and dry.
I seriously love these boots and find myself reaching for these even if wellies aren't needed at all. They just make me so happy wearing them!

I LOVE THEM

Bought these thinking summer at the stables then realised not suitable HOWEVER l wear them shopping or when not at farm and I LOVE THEM .

Got them on. Day 1.

I have got the boots on and am breaking them in. Like one other person. I'm used to barefoot footwear. But these Pokeboo boots are surprisingly lightweight and quite comfortable. I intend to keep these on my feet until bedtime. With or without socks of any description. I could almost forget they're on my feet.

These are remarkably very good in feeling. I am feeling no drawbacks with them.

I do rather like them. And seeing that there's a royal blue pair. I'm considering obtaining a pair of these. For next month! No decision yet! I might decide to do so! I look forward to the next couple of days.

Amazingly clever design

Having worn zero drop shoes (mainly vivobarefoot) for the last couple of years it was great to finally find a suitable welly and what an amazingly clever design these are.

LOVE MY POKEBOOS 😁

Switched to barefoot shoes a while ago but wellies have been an issue. Along came pokeboo. They are great.

Agree that toe box maybe a bit small for some but fine for me. You do feel the coldness of water when walking through puddles so thinking about sizing with thicker socks maybe sensible but I've been fine with my normally woolly socks.

Love that they are so light weight and transportable, unlike normal wellies. Only down side is lack of grip on soles (none basically); as a barefooter you get used to this but if you don't barefoot and buy pokeboos as lightweight wellies, something to be aware of. My partner says please make larger sizes - he's a size 12.

WONDERFUL BOOTS

Never got on with wellies, as I have thick calves and even fashion favourites do not fit me. These are light, comfortable and a dream to put on and take off. Finally they can be packed and taken with you easily as they take no space at all

Tick all the boxes

"Got myself some pokeboo wellies, they are flat and zero drop, thin, you can pack them or roll them and ultralight. I think they tick all the boxes, toebox could be bigger but it is very stretchy and soft so happy with that (corrects toes on my feet). Not cheap but my feet need good shoes."

Love these very comfortable boots

I love my new boots ! They are incredibly comfortable and suprisingly very warm, with thick socks. However, the first two days/times I wore them walking in a muddy field , I slipped and fell. Luckily didn't hurt myself but was covered in mud, head to foot. This means that their use is very limited, as I cannot trust them on muddy wet grass. The grip is fine on paths and pavements and they are waterproof. I hope this may be taken into account in future design to create a similar boot with a better grip on the sole.
