SINDASOX 256 Posted March 24, 2013 Report Share Posted March 24, 2013 Anyone got any positive feedback on the Seeland range of Wellies, i've never tried a pair myself but i am now looking to get a new pair, my latest ones were Hunter Balmoral Neoprene lined... ( John Norris slight seconds )... which i've managed to get two years wear out of them, they are now split in several places and leaking. My brother just bought the Hunter Balmoral Bamboo and they are really Thin and Flimsy, i dont know if all the Hunter Balmoral's are now like this, but what i do know is that everything these days is made in China. These are the ones i've been looking at, Here SINDASOX Quote Link to post

Huan72 687 Posted March 24, 2013 Report Share Posted March 24, 2013 I used to have hunter Balmorals years ago when they were the hunter classics. I recently got some seeand allaround wellies, which are lower in the range than the ones your gonna get and I love them. The sole has great grip, I have done 12 mile plus walks in them on very slippery chalk/clay and they performed brilliantly. This was on the south downs so up and down plus slippery! I would recommend them and as the ones your thinking of are higher up the Seeland range they could well be excellent. The sole has great grip on chalk/clay/flint, in fact better than any sole I have ever walked in and that includes Vibrams. I hope this helps. Quote Link to post

SINDASOX 256 Posted April 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 The lining inside the Hunter Balmoral Bamboo Carbon behind the heel that my brother purchased a few weeks back have started to undo already, Quality is Shocking. SINDASOX Quote Link to post

SINDASOX 256 Posted April 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Thanks for that feedback Bob, the quality on everything these days seems to be getting worse, but the manufacturers are still charging top wack for Crap. SINDASOX Quote Link to post
