Wet deal: 10 pairs of rubber boots
Rubber boots are considered to be infantile shoes and have gone out of fashion (there is also an opinion that she never went there). Indeed, they have a reputation of “fun jumping through puddles in cheerful polka-dot boots,” and the “hunters” of fifty shades of mud are considered the only intelligent alternative. Nevertheless, the situation on the solid shoe market is much more interesting, so we chose 10 beautiful pairs of different styles in online stores - in unbalanced weather conditions of the Russian spring-summer season, it would not hurt to have such ones in a closet.
Burberry
In the case of disgusting weather, black is always new black. This was definitely kept in mind by Burberry, making the rubber version of jockey boots. From a distance they can hardly be distinguished from shoes made of matte leather, but you can climb into them in such ravines, which you will not come close to in a kilometer in leather Burberry.

Mulberry
The desperate color of these boots is the main parameter, which can both scare away and enchant. The classic form of the Mulberry designers was complemented with biker attributes: buckles and straps, and the boots themselves were made dull so that their already rich appearance did not slip into a frank kitsch. Well and most importantly: when buying this pair, it is worthwhile to prepare yourself in advance for the retarded jokes about the cat in boots.
$330
Dr. Martens
"Martins" - shoes that were in everyone’s wardrobe. But if in the 90s we wore heavy aggressive boots as a rebellion against the image of a diligent schoolgirl, today we buy Dr. laced boots. Martens, firstly, from nostalgic and aesthetic considerations, and secondly, because the truth is not terrible in them, neither rain, nor snow, nor ice. This cheerful rubber remake of the eight-hole classic is especially liked by those who once suffered from the rigidity of the original “martins” - these are much softer, but just as insensitive to puddles.

Hunter
British classics and the fundamental thing in the wardrobe "according to heritage": in Hunter Wellington, you can go to the country porch and go for mushrooms, feeling like a British queen walking on a boar. And you can safely knead the dirt on "Glastonbury" or some Moscow region open-air. Giant misconception that Hunter exists only in the palette from black to khaki and in two models: in the collection of this year there are bright pink boots and ballet flats. And so handsome in the style of color block.

Melissa
The brand, famous for its ballet shoes from fragrant rubber, has released just such a transforming model, again the color block. The high ankle comes off and the chelsea to the middle of the ankle is obtained with the same acid-lemon inserts. By the way, rubber chelsea this year obviously come on the heels of high boots - in this review we have included a couple more options.

Mulberry
Mulberry specializes in leather bags and shoes, but the British brand spirit told them to grab their rubber boots sooner or later - the notorious weather of Albion is quite comfortable with this. The dark green model with a brown strap literally screams: I am of noble blood and my ancestors rode on horseback.
$280.00
Sloosh
For a change - Italian boots (oh, how our parents heart stopped at this phrase). Sloosh specialize in rubber boots. They have three lines: Classic, Vintage and Original. All three are in traditional colors: black, marsh, brown, and so elegant beige.

Jeffrey campbell
For these shining green chelsea, oddly enough, the cheeky American brand is responsible, formerly beloved for the furious platforms and shoes with spikes on the heel, as in the "True Detective" screensaver. The model is ironically called "Weather Forecast" and exists in cherry color too - but it seems to be sold out in many places. Alternatively, you can find almost similar cherries in Diane von Furstenberg, but for £ 119 (to be honest, we still like them a little less).
2 333 rub.
Ted baker
The next British product on our list is, after all, the residents of the United Kingdom are the best experts in dealing with the effects of precipitation. We honestly selected monochrome shoes for this review, but then we surrendered: the floral print in this case is saved by the fact that it “opened”. As an option, Ted Baker has the same model of delicate colors in the style of "travel with the unicorn."
£95
Le chameau
The French brand Le Chameau has been producing laconic rubber shoes for almost 90 years, which also makes for sophisticated multi-stage technology. A small contrast platform will surely remind you of the 70s (or the 80s, depending on who lived where), and the boots themselves will look equally good with a skirt and trousers. Like the "hunters," they resemble simple boots from childhood, but in such a mom or older sister could flaunt.
