What is a "rubber boot"?

A rubber boot, also known as a wellington boot or rain boot, is a type of waterproof footwear that is designed to keep feet dry and protected in wet or muddy conditions. They are typically made from rubber or other synthetic materials, with a tall design that covers the lower leg and often features a non-slip sole for traction. Rubber boots are commonly used in outdoor activities such as farming, fishing, or gardening, as well as for rainy or snowy weather. They come in a variety of colors and designs, from classic solid colors to bold patterns and prints. The tall design of rubber boots allows for easy removal of mud or debris, making them a practical choice for messy outdoor work or play. Some rubber boots may also feature added insulation for warmth during colder weather conditions.
