Hunter Size Charts & Fit Information

Hunter Size Guide

Hunter is renowned for its classic wellington boots and waterproof footwear, crafted with a focus on durability and timeless design. The brand uses European sizing standards across its ranges. Hunter sizing varies significantly by model — some styles run small while others run true to size or large — so checking model-specific guidance is essential for an accurate fit. Hunter's outerwear and clothing lines follow standard European conventions, and the brand caters to men, women, and children.

How to Measure

For Shoes: Stand on a piece of paper with your heel against a wall. Mark the longest part of your foot on the paper. Measure the distance from the wall to the mark in centimetres. Compare your measurement with the foot-length column in the shoe size chart below.
For Chest (Clothing): Measure around the widest part of your chest, generally above or at the nipple line. Keep the tape horizontal and do not pull tight.
For Waist (Clothing): Measure just above your navel without pinching or pulling the tape. This measurement should be comfortable but snug.
For Hips (Clothing): Measure the widest part around your bottom. Keep the tape parallel to the ground.
For Arm Length (Outerwear): Measure from the shoulder joint to the wrist, keeping the elbow slightly bent.
General Tip: Ask someone else to help with measurements for greater accuracy. If your measurements fall between two sizes, we recommend ordering the larger size.

Product-Specific Guidance

Wellington Boots & Rain Boots
Hunter's iconic wellington boots are the brand's signature product. Fit varies considerably by model, with some designs running true to size and others running small or large. Always consult the model-specific sizing guide before ordering. Most wellington boots feature a calf-measurement specification; check this dimension carefully if you have larger or slimmer calves, as Hunter offers regular and fitted options.

Insulated & Snow Booties
Hunter's waterproof snow and insulated booties (such as the Big Kids Cuddle range) are designed for cold-weather protection. These styles often run true to EU sizing. Because they are intended to be worn with thicker socks or thermal layers, consider sizing up by half a size if you plan to wear them over heavy winter clothing.

Outerwear & Jackets
Hunter's outerwear follows standard European sizing conventions. Women's sizes run considerably smaller than men's at the same EU number. Always measure your chest, waist, and hip circumference according to the instructions above, and refer to the corresponding outerwear table. Arm length is particularly important for jackets; if you have proportionally longer arms, you may need to size up.

Sizing Across Genders & Unisex Items
Hunter does not publish a unisex clothing size table. Women's clothing sizes typically run 1.5 EU sizes smaller than men's in the same EU number. For shoes, women's and men's models are separate, so choose the column that matches your gender.

Sizing Tips

Model Variation: Hunter sizing is not consistent across all models. Always check model-specific sizing guides before purchase, as some wellington boots and rain boots run small, others run large, and some run true to size.
Calf Measurement: For wellington and rain boots, pay close attention to the calf measurement (Wadenumfang). Hunter offers regular and fitted options; ensure you select the correct fit for your leg shape.
Layering for Boots: If you plan to wear thick socks or thermal liners inside your Hunter boots, consider sizing up by half a size (0.5 EU) to allow room for the extra layer without compromising comfort.
Foot Shape: Hunter's wellington boots are cut with a relatively snug fit around the forefoot and a generous fit in the leg. If you have wide feet, you may need to size up by half a size.
Break-In Period: Hunter boots benefit from a break-in period. New wellington boots may feel stiff initially; wear them around the house before taking them outdoors. A proper fit should be snug but not painful at the heel and sides.
Between Sizes: If your foot measurement or clothing dimensions fall between two sizes, always round up to the larger size. Hunter's sizing tends toward a nearer fit, and a size up will be more comfortable in the long run.
Width Considerations: Hunter does not offer separate width fittings for most shoes. If you have particularly wide or narrow feet, consider trying on multiple sizes or consulting customer reviews for your specific model before purchase.
Returns Policy: Because sizing can vary by model, take advantage of generous return policies. Many retailers accept returns within 100 days, allowing you to exchange for a different size if needed.
