An article that appeared in the June edition of the Financial Times (Financial Times,2023), stating that "Hunters boots' new owner was looking to take the upmarket wellington brand global as it seeks to capitalise on a new love affair with Britain across the US and Asia.

Nick Woodhouse, president of authentic brands, said the quintessentially British bootmaker had not had its story told by its previous owners..." This statement was made "...after Hunters collapse into administration...with insolvency practitioners blaming COVID-19, reduced demand and supply chain problems".

Woodhouse went on to say that "It's amazing to think this is a brand that a king will wear and the person who mucks out the kings' stables will also wear" "there is room for a terrific sportswear, accessories, bags, Luggage collection with the name Hunter." Woodhouse goes on to say that the new owners "... would not repeat the mistakes of the previous owners, which included overly focussing on the luxury sector and neglecting practical buyers."
