How comfortable are Hunter Play Clogs
One of the most common reasons people give for wearing clogs is that they are extremely comfortable. The comfort that people obtain from clogs is largely due to the fact that their feet have adequate range to spread. Also, air can readily flow around feet, helping preventing sweat from building up and causing discomfort. On top of these benefits, the Hunter Play clogs also have an insole that provides additional cushioning \ shock absorption which makes them ideal for walking or standing for long periods of time.
On the negative side they don’t have much arch support, so if you have flat feet or high arches, you may want to consider replacing the insole.
Do Hunter Play Clogs Look Good
Clogs certainly divide opinion when it comes to how they look. Some people absolutely love them, while others think they are ugly and cumbersome. If you like the way clogs look then, we think that you will like the Hunter Play clogs. They are a very simple design which makes them sleek and stylish. The wedge sole gives them a fairly unique look, which you won’t find on many other rubber clogs.
The clogs are available in 8 different colours (at the time writing). Hunter are known for releasing special editions, so expect more colours and possibly patterns and prints in the future.
Do you wear socks with Hunter Play clogs
Its entirely up to you as to whether you wear socks or not. The inner textile lining of the clogs is soft, which means that they can be worn quite comfortably without socks. Some people prefer socks, as they find it more comfortable.
The Hunter Play clogs have a thin textile lining that doesn’t provide much insulation from the cold. So, you might find that you end up wearing socks in colder conditions and going bear foot when wearing the clogs inside or outside in warmer weather.
Do feet get hot and sweaty wearing Hunter Play Clogs
The outer material of the clogs is made from natural rubber. This is great for keeping feet dry in wet weather, but not so good at allowing feet to breathe. This is not too much of a problem, as clogs do not fully enclose feet. This allows air to easily circulate around your feet, preventing sweat from forming and keeping your feet cool.
Also, the inner textile lining is a moisture wicking fabric that dries rapidly so that your sweat doesn’t saturate the fabric
Do the Hunter Play clogs slip off feet easily
A common concern that people have when buying clogs, is that they will slip off their feet when walking. This is a very valid concern, as some clogs can be difficult to walk in because they simply won’t stay on your feet. The Hunter Play clogs do have a very low back, which means that they do not keep your heel firmly in place. This can cause your foot to slide out of the shoe. For this reason it is very important to buy the clogs in the correct size. For most people this will mean buying a pair of the Hunter clogs in their normal shoe size. However, The clogs do run slightly large, so it might be that you will need the next size down.
Unfortunately, the clogs are not available in half sizes. If you are usually a half size, then the recommendation is to size down.
How heavy are Hunter Play clogs
Probably the biggest downside to the Hunter clogs is that they are comparatively heavy compared to other rubber clogs. That not to say they are heavy, but if you’re after lightweight clogs it would probably be worth look elsewhere.
The Hunter Play clogs way approximately 1 lb 2 oz or just over 500 grams. Obviously this will vary slightly depending on the size of the clogs. This is less than an average pair of sneakers \ trainers, but in the world of rubber clogs it is on the heavy side.
Hunter have recently redesigned the Play clogs to make then more lightweight, but having a wedge sole is always going to add some extra weight.
Are the clogs suitable for wearing inside and outside
The clogs are designed to be worn both inside and outside. This makes them very diverse, as they can be worn outside for doing gardening on a wet day or they can be worn by a nurse walking between patients in a hospital.

I've been working with rubber boots (aka rain boots, wellies) in one way or another, since 2009. So, i've seen a lot of wellington boots in my time. I create most of the content for the website, which i hope you find useful.
