Igor Pau Fleece-Lined - Kids

Winter barefoot wellies for kids with a warm fleece-style lining

The Igor Pau Fleece-Lined are winter barefoot wellies for kids with an anatomical shape, wide toe box, warm polyester lining and flat 6 mm sole. They are designed to protect children’s feet from rain, mud and damp when temperatures drop and an unlined rain boot may no longer be enough.

They retain the foot-friendly features of the Igor Pau while adding a warm polyester lining with a fleece-style finish for a more comfortable feeling on colder days. Children can continue playing outdoors, walking to school or jumping in puddles without placing their feet inside narrow, rigid and completely cold boots.

The anatomical shape follows the natural outline of a child’s foot more closely. The front leaves room for the toes to sit, move and spread freely, avoiding the narrow toe box commonly found in many children’s winter wellies.

Warm children’s wellies for colder rainy days

A puddle in summer is tempting.

A puddle in winter is tempting too.

The difference is that, when it is cold, protection from water alone is not always enough. That is why the Igor Pau Fleece-Lined feature a warm polyester interior that helps keep children’s feet feeling more comfortable during rainy autumn and winter days.

They are especially practical for school, playing in wet parks, walking through muddy areas, family trips to the countryside or going outside after several days of rain. The shaft helps protect the foot and lower leg from splashes and damp.

The pull-on design has no laces, buckles or complicated fastenings, making it easier for children to put the boots on and take them off. Something parents appreciate in the morning and even more when children return home with mud in places that seemed physically impossible.

Their simple design makes them easy to combine with waterproof trousers, raincoats, school clothes and casual winter outfits.

Flat 6 mm sole, flexibility and room for the toes

The Igor Pau Fleece-Lined feature a flat 6 mm PVC sole with zero drop. There is no height difference between the heel and forefoot, allowing the foot to remain in a more natural position without the artificial elevation found in many conventional wellies.

The sole is flexible around the metatarsal area, allowing it to follow the movement of the foot during each step. The boot can bend where the foot needs to flex instead of forcing the child to walk while dragging a rigid structure.

They also have no rigid heel counter unnecessarily restricting the heel area. The combination of an anatomical shape, wide toe box, flexible sole and level construction preserves the essential principles of barefoot footwear even on cold and rainy days.

The lining takes up some space inside the boot. It is therefore important to check the measurements for this model rather than choosing a size based only on the number your child usually wears in trainers.

Who are the Igor Pau Fleece-Lined for?

The Igor Pau Fleece-Lined are designed for boys and girls who need warm barefoot wellies for winter. They are a good choice for families looking for protection from rain and mud together with a warmer interior than an unlined rain boot.

They are particularly useful in colder areas, on chilly school mornings, for trips to the countryside and on days when damp weather combines with low temperatures. The polyester lining with a fleece-style finish provides warmth, while the anatomical shape preserves the toe space children need.

They are not the most suitable option for mild temperatures or for wearing for long periods inside heated spaces, as the warm interior may become excessive. In those situations, the unlined Igor Pau may be a more suitable alternative.

For particularly wide or high-volume feet, carefully check the internal measurements before choosing a size. The warm lining makes the fit feel closer than it does inside an unlined boot.

My size in Igor Pau Fleece-Lined - Kids

To choose your child’s size, measure their foot and click on the ‘Check your size here’ link beneath the size selector.

Compare the foot measurement with the size chart for this model, leaving the recommended room so the toes can move and spread freely.

Bear in mind that the polyester lining with a fleece-style finish takes up some of the internal space, so do not choose the size based only on the number your child usually wears in other trainers or boots.

When choosing between two sizes, we recommend selecting the larger one to give your child a more relaxed and natural fit. A little extra room is preferable to having their toes too close to the front.

And if the size is not right the first time, do not worry: you can easily exchange it.

Care and maintenance of Igor Pau Fleece-Lined - Kids

Materials: PVC upper and outsole, polyester lining and textile insole. After wearing the boots, remove external mud and dirt using water and a soft cloth or brush. Avoid unnecessarily soaking the lining, using abrasive products, putting the boots in a washing machine or placing them next to radiators and other direct heat sources.

Allow them to air-dry in a well-ventilated place. If the lining becomes damp, place absorbent paper inside and replace it until the boots are completely dry. Do not store them while moisture remains inside.
