Children's models are often made in the form of animal faces - with eyes, a nose and, of course, funny ears. It can be dogs, foxes, wolves, cats or bears.

Material

Valenoks are made of felt, which is obtained by felting wool (mainly sheep, less often - camel and goat), getting a fairly dense non-woven fabric. Felt is obtained as a result of tangling anatomically scaly hairs that cling to each other during felting. Inside the felt boots on rubber soles, there may be additional insulation from sheepskin pile or faux fur.

The use of artificial fibers in primordially Russian shoes is unacceptable, however, recently the Chinese pseudo-houses, made not of non-woven woolen fabric, but of synthetic material, have been flooding the market. The main difference of such raw materials is that it is short-lived and falls apart after getting wet, besides, products from it are completely non-frost-resistant.

Color

Natural color boots with rubber soles - white, gray and black. The color of the finished product depends on the original color of the raw material. For example, white boots are made from sheep’s wool bred in Russia, Mongolia and Australia, and gray ones are made from sheep’s wool in Russia, the Caucasus and Central Asia.

Colored felt boots are made from pre-dyed wool. The most common colors of rubber-soled boots are blue, red, green, bright yellow, orange, turquoise, burgundy, pink, and raspberry. The so-called gradient is also popular, for example, the transition from pale lilac to deep purple. However, it will not be out of place to warn that acid is usually used during wool dyeing, which cannot but affect the strength of the finished product.

Reviews

In general, reviews about rubber-soled boots from well-known manufacturers are quite positive. Buyers note excellent thermal insulation properties, durability and attractive appearance. As for the products of little-known companies, there are complaints about quality - too thin and cold felt, loss of anatomical properties during wear and even a peel-off sole.

What to wear?

Classic low-heeled rubber boots with rubber soles can be combined with slim-fit trousers, jeans and leggings. We recommend that you wear a voluminous knitted sweater, jacket, down jacket or fur vest. Valenki on a wedge or high heel are perfectly combined with a knitted dress, a draped coat or a sheepskin coat.

Designer leggings with exquisite decor will look great with feminine dresses or cropped skirts. However, it is important not to overdo it: if the shoes are generously decorated, the top should be concise enough.

The only thing with which it is definitely not worth combining boots with rubber soles is wide pants, a business suit or an evening dress with bare shoulders.
