I 'll admit I'm partial to coloured and decorated gumboots. Why not pink ? They have taken their time , as an item, to be 'designerated'.
It was in fact only this summer that stylish Glastonbury attendees got their gummies in sync with the rest of their look.
Here we have a pair of true blue Hokianga working gummies which were left outside the Rawene Four Square.
The fact that gumboots have entered the fashion realm was not lost on this pair's owner who exclaimed gleefully 'these are not Ponsonby boots' !
Indeed they are not - the mud and grit is definitely local and the built in ridges are a functional design detail for what ? I will have to find out.
They are almost certainly steel capped.
