Size 8 Wellies for Women: Where to Buy in the UK
Quick answer: UK 8 is the easiest size for women’s wellies. We found 14 shops, and much of what they list here is still labelled women’s: Hunter’s Original Tall and Short, Le Chameau’s Vierzon and Giverny, Muck Boot’s Women’s Arctic Sport II, Marks and Spencer’s own wellies and Joules’ Molly. Wide calves are covered by Le Chameau and JD Williams. Joules, Marks and Spencer’s own brand and Dunlop’s women’s Sport all stop at 8.

Eight is the last size at which you can shop for a women’s welly much as anyone else would. Tall, mid-calf and ankle styles are all here, along with Chelsea wellies and prints, and the brands run from Lilley at Shoe Zone to Le Chameau. It is also where the first shops drop out. Joules’ product pages stop at 8, Marks and Spencer’s own wellies end here, and so does Dunlop’s women’s Sport. Decathlon’s women’s filter is down to one style. So a welly you like at 8 may not exist one size up, which makes this the size to compare calf fits while you still have them.
We checked each shop’s own website on 31 October 2026. Marks and Spencer’s filter, Shoe Zone’s women’s wellies page, Hunter’s, Le Chameau’s and Muck Boot’s collections, and Dunlop’s store data were read directly. Screwfix, GO Outdoors, Joules, Aigle, JD Williams, Next, Pavers and Decathlon were read through search results, so their details come from their own pages as shown there. Delivery and returns terms were read on 30 October. We did not check prices, and availability changes daily.

Women’s, unisex or adult at size 8
Most wellies at 8 are labelled women’s, which will not hold for long as sizes rise. The exceptions are worth reading for. Shoe Zone’s Adults Tall Welly is shown under women’s, Dunlop’s collection leans towards unisex work wellingtons, and Aigle’s Parcours 2 is unisex from this size up, because the women’s version has already stopped at 7.5. If a women’s label matters to you, Hunter, Le Chameau, Muck Boot, Marks and Spencer and Joules all had one at 8.
Wellies that end at size 8
- Joules: product pages show 3 to 8 only, as shown in search results, so no Molly at 9.
- Marks and Spencer’s own wellies: the Knee High and Mid Calf styles are gone from the filter at 9.
- Dunlop’s women’s Sport: stops at 8, though other Dunlop styles go on.
- Decathlon: no whole 9 on the Solognac Reinforced, which goes from 8.5 to 9.5.
Our size 9 wellies guide covers the shops that keep going.
Wide calves at size 8
This is a good size for calf fit. Le Chameau splits its women’s boots into narrow-calf and wide-calf collections and offers the Chasseur in several calf sizes. JD Williams has wide calf wellies in its category and a Wide wellies filter, and Joules’ Molly is a mid-height welly said to suit wider calves, both as shown in search results. The search result for Hunter’s Original Tall gives a maximum calf of 39.35 at this size. Pavers also lists a Paw Print Chelsea in a wide fit.
How to measure your feet for size 8 wellies
Marks and Spencer gives 262 mm for a women’s UK 8, and Shoe Zone 26.8 cm. Those are the two shops here with a foot length on their charts. Hunter’s table gives an insole figure rather than a foot length, so compare like with like.
- Stand on paper with your heel against a wall, wearing the socks you would wear in wellies.
- Mark your longest toe and measure from the wall in millimetres, on both feet.
- For a tall welly, measure your calf at its widest point with a soft tape, and compare it with the shop’s own figure.
UK 8 in EU and US sizes
