Hip Boots

A pair of size 10 hip-length rubber boots, designed for fishing or maritime labour.

Boots feature black rubber feet and heels, with rust-coloured soles and trim.

The upper leg sections are made of beige waterproof canvas, with a rust-coloured interior lining.

A buckle strap (missing or detached in part) was originally used to tighten the boots around the upper leg for a secure fit.

The structure combines heavy-duty rubber for waterproofing with canvas for flexibility and breathability.
