We bought Rudy a pair of 'Red Band' gumboots for Christmas. Today, while he was snoozing, we tried them on... they'll be perfect in a year's time when he is walking! He didn't wake up, so they will be still be a surprise for him... I must say he did look rather cute in his overalls and boots.
Red Band gumboots are a real kiwi (NZ) icon. They are sturdy and comfortable and have been around for more than 60 years
