- Is the Shellista V actually waterproof?
- Yes. The upper is waterproof and the seams are taped, so feet stay dry in snow and slush. It is not a fully submersible boot.
- How warm is it for very cold weather?
- The fleece and faux-fur lining handles typical winter school and play conditions. For deep cold or long exposure, add wool socks.
- How does it compare with the Shellista IV?
- The V keeps the same waterproof, warm-lined formula with an updated upper and outsole mix. Fit and sizing carry over closely.
- Should I size up for growing kids?
- A little room helps with thick socks, but too much space reduces warmth and grip. Measure the foot and leave about a thumb's width.
- Are the laces easy for a child to tie?
- They work like standard laces, so younger kids may need help. Older children can tie them themselves for a snug fit.
- What is in the box?
- One pair of boots. Insoles and socks are not included.
