The ones that have removable inners are a nightmare to walk in. Aigle and le chameau are probably the best ones ive had but there quite expensive.

I've recently got a pair of some Muck Artic Extreme boots. Had them on a few times and along with merino socks the feet are toastie warm. Walking in them is fine and sitting under the brolly inactive my feet still didn't get cold .Initially went
at the price, but picked the right boots.
Would definitely recommend if your budget will stretch.

I'd second the Muckboot arctic sport, if you want a warm boot. I've got the Muckboot Spey which I believe to be an older version of the Arctics, but with a naff real tree style camo pattern. They are decent to walk in, a million times better than any with removeable linings I've tried. Watch out for the sole though. Mine are superb on grass or mud, but lethal on tarmac or wet wood.
I found Le Chameau very comfortable for walking, but wore the cotton lining out on the heel. The Aigles I currently use are also very good for walking in, but don't seem to be as good a fit for me. Both of these are just the basic offerings with cotton linings, so not really cold weather boots, though both are available with neoprene linings at a premium. I doubt either would be as warm as Muckboots.
Edit to add- A more budget friendly option might be a pair of "ordinary" oversize wellies with decent wool socks and a pair of neoprene socks. I wear my bootfoot waders like this and have no problems, though this is usually limited to a few hours at a time.

Skee Tech.
I really like them had a pair as a kid teens and 20s tried a heap load since and back to them for sitting around in. Now there are walking boots and most of not all will cause your feet to get wet accept it. Even the Skee Tech will walking about in them as your feet sweat: no water logged boot will allow for sweat less feet and that is the thing. I usually use a walking boot to and from swim and put my Skee techs on once settled however when **** really gets tough they are abandoned and I use my Skee techs and just carry several pairs of socks and replace regularly. Usually tuck my trouser legs into my socks to prevent them ending up against the end of my toes. Great boots very misunderstood IMHO.

Heard Rovex boots are really good,and have replaceable liners...
Myself I do this....I use Muck boot scrub,the short boots..but what I do is literally take them off a various points during a day session,I just rest my feet on top of the boot when sitting ,static,letting the air get to my feet,I find i don't sweat them up,and they don't get so cold,also,i find thin summer socks,in muck type boots work best,not thick merino socks...
Weird,but true...lol

I use Muck boot scrub too about the only ones that Muckboot do that are a wide fit and totally agree just thin normal socks and make sure they are a roomy fit never had cold feet in them
just they are a crappy grip on a slopping bank

Yeap I use thin cotton socks, use flip flops when in the Bivvy and my Skee techs if I have to reach for a run. I do have a pair of waders which if necessary I'll put on and hence the trouser tucked in sock is a god send, allowing ease of freedom of movement . Then again I swear by socks and sandles. It's

What are good on sloppy banks?
Nothing really although Skee techs are no worse than anything else.

I did buy an expensive pair of muckboots with a much better tread pattern
BUT !!!!
I have well developed calf muscles and the top of the Muckboots was 17.5 inches !!!!
my calf muscles are 18.5 inches so only choice was below
