Named after Duke of Wellington

起源与历史

Named after Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington, who in the early 1800s asked his bootmaker to modify cavalry boots for both riding and evening wear. The leather 'Wellington boot' became fashionable among aristocracy. When rubber manufacturing emerged in the mid-19th century, Hiram Hutchinson acquired a patent from Charles Goodyear to create rubber Wellingtons. They became working-class essentials, issued to WWI soldiers. 'Wellies' emerged as the affectionate British diminutive by the mid-20th century.
