My grandad, Alfred Prentice, was the Head Designer at Skellerup when the red band gumboot was designed in 1958. He said that he was part of a team that developed the red band gumboot and he reckoned it was only "half a day's" work. He was also responsible for designing the Buller boot which is still sold by Skellerup today. He is 89 years old and lives in Hamilton.
