5 Reasons Why Wellies Will Be Around Forever

Wellington boots have been around for centuries

. First developed in 18th century on instruction of the Duke of Wellington the boots have pretty much been a mainstay in the footwear industry ever since.The following is a list of 5 reasons the welly will continue to enjoy success in the footwear industry for many years to come.

1) Weather

Although fashion trends change the weather patterns don't. No other footwear type offers the protection from the rain and snow than wellies do. So unless you are lucky enough to live near the equator or anywhere that is not the UK for that matter, bad weather conditions are always going to call for wellies!

2) Celebrities

Celebrities have the power to start trends. Without getting too deep into changes on a technological front, the expansion of technology through the means of the web means that you are never a few clicks away from seeing what the latest popular celebrity is wearing. If you happen to be browsing during bad weather periods you can bet your life that you will spot celebrity wearing a pair of wellies!

3) Festivals

Festivals are becoming ever more popular in the UK with thousands of people attending festivals up and down the country throughout the year. Throw in some of UK's infamous unpredictable weather and you have another solid reason why wellies will never disappear from our shelves.

4) Style Changes

If you think of wellies the first thing that comes to mind is usually that dull uninspired pea green colour, however this could not be further from the truth. Over the years - and with a little bit of help from the festival craze - wellies have been adapted and restyled so that you now have a wide selection to choose from. You can get wellies in almost any colour or pattern now including leopard print and zebra stripes through to polka dots and cartoon characters. Even recently you can find wellies that come with heels on them Dubbed wedge wellies these have become the latest craze and are inevitably a popular choice with ladies.

5) Long Lasting

Lastly wellies will never go out of fashion because a good pair can last an average user for a lifetime. Compared to any other footwear type wellies offer durability above anything else so unless your feet grow you will keep hold of your wellies for years ready to wear again when the weather turns!
