I've got a pair of the chore ones. Can't fault them soo far, use them at work aswell. Keep your feet pretty warm aswll baring in mind they are just a welly

Same here. Main problem is finding them in stock anywhere. The arctic pro seems to get positive feedback

I have the chore for winter use
I bought the wife the Arctic version as she always moans about cold feet
I also have the ankle version which I wear for the other 3 seasons just to keep my feet dry in the dew

Arctic Pro's for me. Bought them on a recommendation and their spot on.
Seem well made and my feet don't get cold in them even sitting around under the brolly.
Pricewise not great,but looked after they'll pay their way.

I've had muck boots a few years back mine lasted a couple of seasons which was disappointing considering the cost and high expectation I had - I used them mainly on the rivers lots of roving up and down swims with sometimes challenging terrain before they gave up the ghost.
I've got sundridge hot foot boots and they're a lot cheaper and just as good (had to repair the liners a few times though they've lasted 4 seasons now) - think I paid about £40 for them, often overlooked imho.

Had 2 pairs of Arctics but both wore away at the heels inside quite quickly. They also made my feet sweat a lot so was recommended the Muckmasters. Had a pair for a few months now and not had any issues with them.

Have used the Muckboot derwent for a number of years as general wellies. No complaints and still going strong.

On a similar theme you could have a look at the Grubs Snowline 8.5, they have a Vibram sole and are quality boots

sadly I have big hands and feet most boots are just not wide enough so would you describe your arctic sports as wide ?

As an aside, are muck boot sizes equivalent to shoe sizes or should I order a size up?

I ended up going for my usual shoe size. Perfect fit.
Are you sure?
