Arry 21,442 Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 Guys What do you think are the best wellies for the money? I don't really want to go for £100 posh jobs. Jack pike and wetlands both do some reasonable priced ones but are they any good. Cheers Arry Quote Link to post

dogmad riley 1,343 Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 I've got muck boots comfy as a pair of slippers. Could do with better grip but they do there job. Quote Link to post
Ross M 149 Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 My le Chemas split across the sole twice in the same place on both wellies, I get 18months/2years out of them with to be fair anit bad and got to be honest there the most comfortable wellies Iv ever wore for £130/150 depend on offers, did also have a pair of hunters also good wellies good grip and just as comfortable as my le Chemas so either one decent enough, iam going to try them anglie proka or what ever the spelling is for my next lot see what there like ment to be good? Them Dunlop profort again spelling are also ment to be really hard waring wellies good reviews form the states also, look soild and look to have great deep tread on them maybe not as nice looking as the le Chemas or that but handsom is as handsome does Quote Link to post
Arry 21,442 Posted November 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 Anybody tried V12 boots? been looking at the clothing post on this site and other places for no frills tough black or green wellies. i don't care if they don't look good just do the job. Its confusing does not seem to be a consensus on which is best. Thought I might try cheap jack pikes or Dunlop as I've had hunters and others but most seem a rip off now and no where as good as they used to be. cheers Arry Quote Link to post
krawnden 1,036 Posted November 10, 2015 Report Share Posted November 10, 2015 Dunlop not great - I've had 2 pairs recently, both of which split on the soles within 2 - 3 months Quote Link to post

The one 8,463 Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 I never wear welly as I get a deep cough for some reason , I prefer a leather boot and with the 12 inch boots nowadays there waterproof and you can do the same water work as with a pair of wellies and the soles on boots take the digging easier Quote Link to post
keepdiggin 9,559 Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 Dunlop not great - I've had 2 pairs recently, both of which split on the soles within 2 - 3 months I've just bought a pair for the sake of £10 if I get 2-3 months out of them i'll be happy lol Quote Link to post
grompz 703 Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 tried expensive and cheap wellies over the years never had a problem with split soles, always seem to split on tops where toe bends,tried cheap dunlops recently lasted only a few weeks,just got a pair of dickies of amazon seem to be abit more long lasting Quote Link to post
