No but I like the higher lagged boots for our country. Plenty of bogs on the moor

Whalley Warn n dry, Clitheroe do Alberg and there own . Very good boots and waterproof. They do wide fit boots aswell. Ive had same pair for 2 years. 

If I didnt have wide plates Id stick to Meindl.

Dedito boots are the boots of choice for me

I be trying a pair next time round. Heard too many good reviews to ignore em, an most from guys who on there feet all day

You won’t go wrong with them, comfortable, hard wearing, and relatively low maintenance,

Any one who does a lot on rocks try out Hiax boots they're cheap enough (2nd hand army ones on ebay £35) and a damn site safer than any boot with vibram soles.

My last 3 pairs have all been haix...they last me 2 seasons minimum out with the dogs and wearing to work 6 days a week...I wouldn't buy anything else now

Take a pasting in concrete,tying steel etc...

These pair I've abused,split em,feet still dry,last longer if I keep on top of the dubbing

If I was digging to terriers I'd always go Fell Boots, though if I wanted something 'more comfortable' I'd go for Glockners or another heavy duty mountain boot.

If it was just lurcherwork and general winter hunting then them Hiax are decent enough for the price, or half decent Karrimor from Sports Direct (loads to choose from).

For summer hunting get yourself some of them Nike Air Max. Superb over hard ground and will see you skipping when your Bull cross is near crippled....

Mrs bought me a green goretex pair of fancy Harkila boots when they first did the rounds...pissed in water after 3 times out digging I've tried loads of boots on others recommendations over the yrs,never got more than a season from anything and always been disappointed..I'm on my 4th pair of Haix boots,never payed more than £40 a pair and they last me at least 2 seasons,I wear them as my work boots and out with the dogs,fishing etc...even got the Mrs a pair for when the apocalypse comes

They are the best I have found. Decent ankle support and feet always warm like you say £40 can’t go wrong and there fair bit of leather which is always good come then end
