Gill Short Rubber Cruising Boots  £56.99

By following a few simple steps, you can help protect your rubber and neoprene footwear and maintain their performance.

• After every use, Gill recommends that you clean the exterior of your boots with a stiff brush and wipe with a wet sponge, leaving them to dry naturally.
• Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight.
• Avoid extremes of temperature, especially sources of direct heat and sunshine.
  • Please note that boat cabins and stowage lockers can be subject to significant changes in temperature.
• Should the inside of your boots become wet, you should thoroughly dry them before use or long-term storage.
  • Crumpled newspaper will help draw out moisture and can help speed up the drying time.
• Heat and a lack of abrasion can cause the outside surface of the sole to stiffen and become shiny over time.
  • You can renew the rubber material with grit paper or by regularly walking over rough surfaces such as asphalt or concrete.
