I like how you like to pass on tips to people but how on earth do you know if they're much cop without giving them the run around a bit of different terrain and what not?

well having owned 2 pairs of muckboots and various wellys of the past 50 odd years you kinda get an impression of quality ESPECIALLY at the silly cheap price of 47 quid
you can see the type of tread pattern on the sole and know if your gonna slip arse over head just by looking at it
but seeing as you missed the most important point I was making it was of course the FIT !!!! and for people like me its the most important point everyone knows if your boots are a loose fit they stay warmer than a tight fitting pair
all these super expensive boots are too narrow for my wide feet !!
the blurb Fencham's Armot Short boot is a lighter, stouter version of the standard Armot boot. Featuring supple, durable rubber construction plus a 5mm Neoprene lining to keep you dry and temperate all year. This hard wearing, hard working boot is perfect for country walks, sports or even heavy work. The Armot features neoprene side panels to ensure a comfortable, snug fit; stetching to accomodate any extreme movement. Our long-lasting, shock-absorbing Fensole prevents fatigue and offers sure-footed traction on uneven, slippery, muddy and soft terrain. Finised in our olive drab hue with charcoal black sole, strap and lining, the Armot is perfect for country walks, sports or even for work
Neoprene stretch panels
5mm Neoprene lining
Kick spur
Premium, supple rubber construction
Fensole to reduce fatigue and deliver grip on all terrains.

Hi all
Dragging this thread back up as my Muckboots ( Woody Max) have just given in and letting water in
So in need off a pair of wellies, due to the swims I've always taken them with me
The good thing about them was I could fold them down making it quick to get them on.
So been looking at replacements
Looking at the Fortis ones for winter but a normal pair for summer
My mate sez the normal Vass wellies don't hold shape and end up faffing about getting them on in a rush
So any recommendations for just a pair the will stand and hold shape
I only paid £80 for my Woody max boots but prices are sky high now for them
Cheers

Hi. I purchased a pair of Jack pike wellies with the zip up the side
Easy to put on, warm and comfy
So impressed I then bought a pair of their ankle wellies
Very impressed and would definitely recommend
Great quality and value

Buckbootz worth a look
Holding up well so far Got a pair of the orange / blue safety version
Guys wearing them daily in tough constantly wet and mucky conditions
Reckon six months to a year So for angling purposes should last ages

Grubbs snowline 8.5 for me ,they are lovely and warm on the beach when temps drop below zero and I love vibram soles as they offer good grip and are comfortable to walk in.
