After a couple of weeks using the NorthSole Kids Wellies in dinosaur light blue, I’d sum them up as solid, practical boots that do the basics right.
They keep my son’s feet dry, they keep them warm, and the drawstring cuff actually works to stop splashes getting in from the top. The fleece lining makes them more comfortable and better suited to cold, wet weather than the usual bare-rubber boots we’ve had before. They’re a bit bulkier than cheap supermarket wellies, but not so heavy that they get in the way of normal play.They’re not perfect: the drawstring cord is a bit long, the insole isn’t removable, and the packaging is nothing special. But none of that affects day-to-day use much. For regular rainy school runs, muddy park visits, and general autumn/winter mess, they get the job done without fuss. If you want the cheapest possible boots for very occasional use, you can go lower in price. If you want something that feels sturdier, warmer, and more thought-out, these are a good middle-ground choice.I’d recommend them to parents who have kids that love puddles, farms, and outdoor play in all weathers, and who are tired of dealing with wet socks. If your child mostly stays indoors or you live somewhere with milder, drier weather, the extra features might be overkill. But for typical British-style rain and mud, I’m happy with them and would buy them again in the next size up.
