Waterproof Mid Rain Boot

Western Chief, a brand founded in Seattle in 1891 during the Alaska Gold Rush, has been providing family footwear options for the outdoors. Headquartered in the Pacific Northwest where rain is a way of life, the company designs and tests all of its waterproof and durable footwear in the region.

The Western Chief Printed Tall Waterproof Rain Boot, for example, is made with rubber that is waterproof and long-lasting. Its handmade vulcanized construction prevents weak spots in the seams, allowing for fun and unique designs. A soft, cozy poly/cotton lining lines the interior, absorbing moisture to keep the wearer's feet dry, comfortable and warm.

Complementing the plush lining is a removable EVA insole, providing underfoot cushioning for extended periods on one's feet. The lug outsole, made of slip-resistant rubber, offers reliable traction on wet surfaces and is self-cleaning to maintain grip. For easy care, the boots can be wiped down with a damp, warm cloth and mild liquid dish soap, while a silicone conditioner can also be applied. Air drying is recommended, and the boots should be stored in a cool, dry area.

In terms of sizing, the rain boots generally come in full sizes, with the recommendation to order up if at a half size. Measurements indicate a shaft height of 11.5 inches, a shaft circumference of 14 inches, and a heel height of 0.75 inches.

Beyond the Printed Tall style, Western Chief offers a variety of other waterproof rain boot options. The Waterproof Mid Rain Boot has a 9-inch shaft, while the Waterproof Printed Wide Calf Rain Boot features an 11.5-inch shaft. For those seeking a more streamlined silhouette, the Women's Solid Mid Height Waterproof Rain Boot and Women's Solid Tall Waterproof Rain Boot are available, both with 0.75-inch heels. Finally, the Garden Clog provides a more casual, slip-on option with a 2-inch shaft and 0.25-inch heel.

Regardless of the style, each Western Chief rain boot is designed to keep the wearer dry, comfortable and confident, whether trekking through the elements or simply tending to the garden. The brand's legacy of crafting functional, weather-ready footwear continues to this day.
