skycat 6,174 Posted January 12, 2013 Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 Mine started leaking after about 4 months of not particularly hard wear. 1 Quote Link to post
brassneck 128 Posted January 12, 2013 Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 Great boots and VERY warm but too be honest they dont last 5min , within months the soles on mine were that worn they were like slicks and after slipping over a fair few times i binned them . Mine also leaked within weeks ! 1 Quote Link to post
TOMO 26,778 Posted January 12, 2013 Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 You proberbly had one of the other models like the esk brass neck ,,, the Tay sport are ok ,, but feck there heavy,, they also wear on the inside on the heel to the extent it wears through to the rubber,, then that's starts to give you blisters on the heel. I've just got some aigle parcours iso,,,, ten times lighter and ten times more comfy than the Tay ,,, but even these are feckers for walking on slope, as your ankles go over,,, boots far better Quote Link to post

freelance 448 Posted January 12, 2013 Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 Ive got a pair of grubs stalkers, very similar to muck boots. Very comfy and warm. But they have only done one season and are ripped and punctured, probably my own fault through a combination of lamping and barbed wire fences. A decent boot, but would expect them to be a bit more hard wearing for the amount of money you pay for them, or is that just me being tight Quote Link to post
