BOOTS

[cymruguy69 5]

I'm lookin for boots or maybe wellies and didn't know where to post this topic!!

 

Does anybody know where I can get a decent pair of water proof wellies/boots that will keep me warm in freezing conditions for a fair price???

 

Some of the prices Iv'e seen are ludicrous!!

 

Cheers

 

Happy Hunting

Try the hunter Screel High........can pick them up for about £75.......thats about half retail price.

Good bit of kit.

These were selling at double this price a while back. For the money, the best boot out there,easily.

If you prefer something a bit more up market, club together with some other lads and stick an order in to Cabela. Be prepared to pay customs on top though.

try le chameau wellies or boots start from around 50 quid or you can get a pair of fur lined ancle wellie type boots from the angling shops for around 20 to 25 quid good value for money

Don't be afraid to try millets or blacks. My mate got a pair for £20 which retailed at £60 in a sporting magazine.I've got a pair of walking boots from blacks at £50 (half price sale) they are very comfartable, warm do the job well and i reckon good value.

call me a tramp :11: but ive gone through some boots and the last time i needed a pair i thought i,ll give these a try in the pics,

there used army issue i wear them on almost a daily basis digging ,lamping etc.

theyve out lived anything ive bought previously.

not pretty but they are confortable.

if you dont want to pay much you could do a lot worse.

these cost me a tenner from army surplas on ebay.

there some good surplas dealers on there or the army surplas stores.

theres one in leicester known as "irish" bit pricey compared to the net but you can inspect what your buying.

edited to add the only boots id touch brand new for around 30/40quid is a well made rigger boot.

hi cumruguy69, chilli is [bANNED TEXT], ive had loads of boots that cost £60-£70, & havent lasted long! it killed me handing over £160 for my le chameau's but worth every penny! failing that, buy some hunter wellies for £45 & some thick socks!! but if you plan to do any digging you gotta get boots! if you go down the army surplus route theres an amazing shop on the haverfordwest to aber road that sell a hell of a variety!!
