Size 12 Wellies for Women: Mostly Unisex

AI-generated illustration made for this guide, not a product from any shop listed.

Quick answer: at UK 12 most wellies are unisex or adult, and this is the last size for much of what we found. Hunter’s Unisex Downpour, Muck Boot’s Arctic Sport Tall, Dunlop’s Blizzard and Shoe Zone’s Adults Tall Welly all reach it. The Cotswold Windsor Tall at Screwfix is the one clear women’s label, and 12 is its top size, as it is at Marks and Spencer and Shoe Zone.

A size 12 welly is easier to find than a size 12 walking boot, where we found one boot. Seven shops list something here, and between them you can still choose tall or short, in black, green or navy. But this is a size to buy at, not to count on going further. The Windsor Tall, Marks and Spencer’s list, Shoe Zone’s filter and Dunlop’s Dee all end at 12, and only Dunlop, Muck Boot and Next go beyond them.

We checked each shop’s own website on 31 October 2026. Screwfix’s women’s filter and product page, Hunter’s availability filter, Marks and Spencer’s boots filter, Shoe Zone’s size 12 page and Dunlop’s store data were read directly, and Muck Boot’s Womens collection without exact availability by size. Next was read in a browser before it refused further reads. Delivery and returns terms were read on 30 October. We did not check prices, and availability changes daily.

Every welly here is shown on a women’s page. Only Screwfix’s Windsor Tall has a clear women’s label. “Not checked” means we did not record that detail. Delivery and returns are the standard UK terms read on 30 October 2026, as shown in search results where marked.

The shops in more detail

Screwfix

Twelve is the end of the Cotswold Windsor Tall's range. Screwfix's women's filter at 12 showed the Size 12 Womens in black and green, and the black one's product page offered Collect, Deliver and Add to basket with no sold-out notice. We did not test local availability. It is a non-safety welly. As shown in search results, next-day delivery is £5, free over £50, and returns are free within 30 days, with some items excluded.

Hunter

With the availability filter on at 12, Hunter's Women's Footwear page showed the Unisex Downpour Short and Tall, the Field Downpour Adjustable and the Balmoral MKII Side Adjustable among its wellington boots. Twelve is the last size at which we could find a Hunter on its own site: at 13 every listing was sold out. Standard delivery is £3.99, free over £100. Returns within 30 days must be unworn with tags, and you pay the return postage.

Muck Boot

Muck Boot's Unisex Arctic Sport Tall, Derwent II Short and Edgewater Classic Tall appear in its Womens collection at 12. The Derwent II Short is in the list at 12 but not at 13, where only the tall styles remain. Delivery is £1.99, free over £100. Returns within 30 days are not free: a flat £4.99 through its online portal (mainland UK).

Marks and Spencer

Twelve is the largest size in Marks and Spencer's Wellington Boots filter, and what it holds is the Hunter Downpour Knee High and Downpour Short, in a few colours. There is nothing at 13. Delivery is £3.99, free over £75, and returns within 28 days (14 for sale items) are free by post or in store, though orders under £10 or all-sale orders collected in store usually cannot be posted back.

Shoe Zone

Shoe Zone's list at 12 is the Adults Black, Green and Navy Tall Welly and the Dunlop Dee, Dane and Blizzard, and none is labelled women's. Twelve is the top of its wellies filter. Its general chart gives EU 47. Home delivery is next day, free from £10 (£2.99 below). Unworn returns are accepted within 12 months, free to a store or £2.50 by post.

Next

The Toggi Barnesdale, called unisex in Next's text, showed 12 (EU 47) running low, and the Hunter Balmoral Adjustable could be ordered at 12 (EU 47). Next's page data says women for the Hunter, but we did not read whether it is unisex. As at 11, we left out Muck Boots on this filter. Next-day delivery is £4.95, or free to a store, and returns within 28 days are free in store or £2.50 by post.

Last stop for four ranges

Twelve matters because several wellies end here, and the next size up is close to empty:

  • Cotswold Windsor Tall at Screwfix: the range is 3 to 12, and Screwfix’s women’s size 13 page shows no products at all.
  • Marks and Spencer: nothing at 13 in its filter.
  • Shoe Zone: no 13 in its wellies filter.
  • Dunlop’s Dee Calf Length: the Dee stops at 12, while the Blizzard and Purofort Professional reach 13.

Our size 13 wellies guide covers the three shops that go further.

Who has been gone since 9

The shops that dropped out earlier have not come back. Le Chameau’s women’s filter ended at 9. Pavers’ extended sizes and JD Williams’ filters ended at 9, as shown in search results, and Joules’ product pages at 8. Search results showed no wellies on Long Tall Sally’s UK site, so the brand that fills out so many other size 12 lists is no help here.

Calves and colours at 12

As at 10 and 11, there is no wide calf range to point to, and we did not read a calf figure for any welly here. Colour is the one place with a little choice, with black, green and navy Adults Tall Wellies at Shoe Zone and black and green at Screwfix. ASOS’s boots list at 12 was about half Hunter unisex wellingtons when we read it for our boots guide, but we did not check those here, so ASOS is not in the table.

How to measure your feet for size 12 wellies

We recorded no foot length from these shops at 12. For comparison, Long Tall Sally’s women’s chart gives 296 mm for a UK 12, and Dr. Martens’, which covers its unisex sizes, gives 31 cm.

How to measure your foot length A foot on a sheet of paper with the heel against a wall. A line marks the tip of the longest toe, and the distance from the wall to that line is the foot length in millimetres. Wall Foot length, mm 1 Heel against the wall 2 Mark your longest toe 3 Measure wall to mark, both feet
Measure both feet in the evening, when they are at their largest, and use the longer one.
  1. Heel to the wall on a sheet of paper, in the socks you plan to wear.
  2. Mark and measure to your longest toe on both feet.
  3. Check the product page for the EU number, as it differs by shop at this size.

Next and Shoe Zone agree on EU 47. Long Tall Sally lists no wellies and is here for its foot length, and its EU 45 shows how far labels can drift at this size.

Frequently asked questions

Are there women's wellies in size 12?

One clear one: the Cotswold Windsor Tall Size 12 Womens at Screwfix. Everything else we found is unisex or adult, or a brand we could not confirm as women's.

Which shops stop at 12?

Marks and Spencer, Shoe Zone and the Cotswold Windsor Tall at Screwfix, and Dunlop's Dee. At 13 only Dunlop, Muck Boot and Next list anything.

Can I buy Hunter wellies in size 12?

Yes. Its own site showed unisex Downpour and Balmoral styles at 12, and Marks and Spencer and Next list Hunter wellies too.

Are there navy wellies at 12?

Shoe Zone's Adults Tall Welly came in black, green and navy at 12 when we checked.

Is a UK 12 welly EU 47?

It was at Next and on Shoe Zone's chart. Long Tall Sally's women's chart, which does not cover wellies, says EU 45, so read the product page.

Shops were checked on their own websites on 31 October 2026, and delivery and returns terms on 30 October 2026. Where we say so, details come from a shop’s own pages as shown in search results. We did not check Amazon UK’s listings.
