greatwhitehunter 47 Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 i think there pointless, what is the point in having such an expensive pair of wellies when you can get a perfectly good pair of wellies at £10, or a pair of hiking boots a bit more expensive? Quote Link to post
ginga john 268 Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 I used to wear Matterhorns and Aigle wellies but this year i have invested in a pair of these http://www.flecktarn.co.uk/flccb1aa.html Absolutely superb, very comfortable. i bought a pair of those german army boots, marched half way across Europe before i managed to get em off again.!!

Hob&Jill 258 Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 (edited) you can get a perfectly good pair of wellies at £10, or a pair of hiking boots a bit more expensive? You get what you pay for, and you dont get much for £10 Maybe Im just fussy but walk a few miles on rough terrain and your feet will be feeling it big time EDIT> Rew, your getting good at these long threads!

Guest ARTEMIS Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 togi very comfy and reasonable price I got the Togi ones too - on the spur of the moment (when I went home to north yorkshire without my wellies! ), they're great - really soft flexible rubber stuff and very durable. Not the cheapest, but then, the cheapest I bought (naff bargain-shop floral ones for a tenner ) split after just 1 weeks wear! These ones cost me around £30, and have lasted a year and are still in really good nick so far! Quote Link to post
FERRETBOY 680 Posted July 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 lol @ nelson tell me about it hob&jill.the reason i did get the hunter wellies is because i brought a cheaper pair of wellies before for £20 and only lasted a couple of months before i ditched them ,they cracked in about 3 weeks so i had to wear plastic bags to prevent my feet from getting wet.but my cousine brought some £13 ones a few weeks back and they seem to be a little better and are not showing any signs of wear yet and we walk alot but he says there starting to give him blisters so just like what hob&jill says "you get what you pay for".thanks again everyone.does anyone know of anything i can treat my wellies.cheers good hunting rew Quote Link to post
