What Wellington Boots Does Kate Moss Wear?
We haven’t seen Kate Moss in a pair of wellies recently, but back in 2005, at the Glastonbury festival, Kate gave wellington boot sales a massive boost when she was photographed wearing a pair of black Hunter Original Boots.
Those pictures of Kate wearing Hunter wellies (and not much else) saved the Scottish wellington boot maker from disappearing into oblivion. Not only did sales of Hunter boots have a huge boost, but wellies suddenly became fashionable and many of the other brands also benefited.
The renewed interest in wellies encouraged manufacturers to start looking at how they could improve on the classic wellington boot. Wellies would no longer be limited to green or black colours. In 2007 wellies of nearly any colour you could wish for were available, with Hunter Boots leading the charge.
Hunter now produces tall wellies, short wellies and somewhere in between wellies. Boots that have different types of linings to keep feet warm in the cold and boots with adjustable gussets for wide calves.
It’s been a while since Kate Moss famously wore Hunter Boots at Glastonbury. But Hunter is still making great fashionable wellies, that are still super popular.
Which celebrities wear Hunter boots?
Many celebrities have been spotted wearing a pair of Hunter boots. In fact, if you see a celebrity in a pair of wellies, they are nearly always Hunter Original boots.
Celebs we’ve seen in Hunter Boots, include: Liv Tyler, Alexa Chung, Sarah Jessica Parker, Margot Robbie, Meghan Markle, Leona Lewis and many many more.
Why are Hunter Boots so popular?
One reason is that so many celebrities wear them!
Hunter boots are generally well-made and are both practical and stylish at the same time. There’s a huge range of different colours and designs for women, men and kids.
Hunter has the heritage and tradition that people like to buy into. The company started back in 1856 and the Hunter Original Boots have been made since the mid 1950’s
