FAQs

What is the Merry People Oberon Boot?

The Oberon Boot is a wide-fit waterproof ankle boot designed for comfort, durability, and life outdoors. Built with a generous D-width fit and square toe, it provides extra room through the forefoot while maintaining a strong, structured silhouette inspired by classic work boots.

What is the difference between Oberon and Bobbi boots?

The Oberon boot is designed for a wider fit and more rugged use. It has a square toe, reinforced toe and heel, and a more structured feel. The Bobbi boot has a standard fit, round toe, and is more flexible, making it better suited to everyday wear and lighter use.

Are Oberon boots 100% waterproof?

Yes, the Oberon Boot features a fully waterproof natural rubber outer, designed to keep your feet dry in rain, mud and wet conditions.

Are Oberon boots comfortable for all-day wear?

Yes, the Oberon Boot is designed for all-day comfort, thanks to its neoprene lining, cushioned feel and supportive structure.

What is the neoprene lining and why is it used?

Neoprene is the same material used in wetsuits. It provides warmth, flexibility and cushioning, helping to keep your feet comfortable in both cool and wet conditions.

Are Merry People Oberon gumboots vegan?

Yes! All Merry People boots are 100% vegan and never tested on animals.

Do Oberon boots run true to size?

Oberon boots generally run true to size, but due to their wide fit and extra room, some customers with narrow feet may prefer to size down or wear thicker socks.

We recommend checking the Oberon size chart against your foot length to find the best fit - even if you have worn Bobbi's in the past. Oberon sizing is a little different, so the chart really helps.

Can I wear thick socks with Oberon boots?

Yes, the wide-fit design makes them perfect for wearing with thicker socks in winter, without feeling tight or restrictive.

Can I wear Oberon gumboots in the snow?

Yes, but with caution. While the boots are waterproof and insulated, they are not designed for extreme icy conditions. If you need extra grip on snow or ice, you may want to use traction grips or snow cleats.

 Are Oberon boots good for walking long distances?

Yes, the combination of support, cushioning and grip makes them suitable for longer walks, especially on uneven or outdoor terrain.

 Are Oberon boots slip-resistant?

The Oberon Boot features a durable traction outsole designed to improve grip and stability on wet and uneven surfaces.

How should I store my gumboots?

Store your boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, as excessive exposure can cause the rubber to fade or crack over time.

What is the warranty on Bobbi gumboots?

Merry People offers a 12-month warranty covering manufacturing faults. If you experience any issues with your boots within this period, please contact us at Mookah, and we will assist you with your warranty claim.

Can I return or exchange my boots if they don’t fit?

Yes! At Mookah, we want you to love your Bobbi gumboots. If they don’t fit, you can exchange or return them within our return policy guidelines. Please check our Returns & Exchanges page for more details.

Do Oberon boots have odour control?

Yes, they include an anti-microbial treatment to help reduce odours and keep your boots fresher for longer.

How do I clean my Oberon boots?

Cleaning is simple - just wipe the rubber exterior with a damp cloth after use. This makes them perfect for muddy or outdoor conditions.
