Merry People FAQs – Everything You Want to Know

 

1. Are Merry People boots really waterproof?
Yes! All Merry People boots are 100% waterproof and built to keep your feet dry even in heavy rain or wet grass.

 

2. Can I wear Merry People boots all day?
Absolutely. They're designed with comfort in mind — featuring arch support, flexible rubber, and soft neoprene lining. Great for all-day wear.

 

3. What’s the difference between the Bobbi and Andi boots?
The Bobbi Boot is the original classic style with a rounded toe, while the Andi Boot is a sleek, Chelsea-inspired design with a slightly more fitted silhouette.

 

4. Are Merry People boots suitable for wide feet?
Yes. Many customers with wider feet find the Bobbi Boot especially comfortable, and the soft neoprene allows for flexibility.

 

5. Do Merry People boots stretch?
A little. The neoprene lining softens and adapts to your foot with wear, providing a custom-comfy fit over time.

 

6. Can I wear Merry People boots in the snow?
They’re water-resistant and warm, but not insulated like snow boots. Great for light snowy days but not for deep snow or sub-zero hiking.

 

7. Do Merry People boots run true to size?
Yes, they generally run true to size. If you’re between sizes, size up — especially if you plan to wear thick socks.

 

8. How do I clean Merry People boots?
Wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or putting them in the washing machine.

 

9. Are Merry People vegan?
Yes! All Merry People products are vegan and cruelty-free.

 

10. Are the Lochie Sandals waterproof too?
The Lochie Sandals are water-friendly and great for beach, pool, or summer showers — but they’re not 100% waterproof like the boots.

 

11. Where are Merry People boots made?
They’re designed in Melbourne and ethically manufactured in China.

 

12. Are they good for gardening?
Perfectly suited! Easy to hose down, super comfy, and protect your feet from dirt and moisture.

 

13. Are Merry People boots good for hiking?
They’re great for light walking and trails, but not intended for serious hiking or rugged terrain.

 

14. Can I wear them in summer?
Yes! While they’re warm, the breathable neoprene lining makes them versatile for cooler summer days or wet weather.

 

15. Do they come in kids’ sizes?
Currently, Merry People focuses on adult sizes. However, small sizes do suit some older kids.

 

16. Are Merry People boots suitable for travel?
Definitely — they’re lightweight, versatile, and easy to clean, making them perfect for travel.

 

17. Do they have arch support?
Yes, they’re designed with built-in arch support for comfort all day long.

 

18. Can I wear them to work?
Yes — they’re stylish enough for casual work environments, retail jobs, and hospitality, especially in wet weather.

 

19. Do they crack over time?
No. Merry People boots are made from high-quality, flexible natural rubber that resists cracking with proper care.

 

20. Do they smell like rubber?
A mild rubber scent is normal when new but fades quickly with wear.

 

21. Are they good for dog walking?
Yes! They're a dog-walker’s best friend – waterproof, easy to slip on, and perfect for unpredictable weather.

 

22. What socks should I wear with Merry People?
Any! Thinner socks are fine for warmer weather, or cosy socks for colder days. Just avoid bulky socks that alter the fit too much.

Of course — Mookah offers easy returns and size exchanges both in-store and online.
