In reply to Post #12 too many rubber dinghies

In reply to Post #8 Hey, I'm no fan of the french... But rubber products are something they actually do very well (think Michelin tyres and rubber dinghies
I wouldn't bother with Le chameau, the quality just isn't the same as it used to be.
Typically, I get 5+ years out of a pair of Aigle boots, and I'm in them everyday of the year. Whatever you buy - don't be tempted just to leave them outside the backdoor all year round. The suns UV is what degrades them.

In reply to Post #1 Le Chameau / Aigle Parcours if you are a posh . . .I like my Grubs Speyline 4.0 as they have vibram soles, are warm and are not French

Muck Boot definitely worth a look - they do a number of warm/weatherproof options for farmwork etc. Had mine years for fishing and walking the dog and can't fault them

In reply to Post #1 Wouldn't bother with the Hunters. There for all middle class hipsters for flancing around all these gentrified once working class areas. Dipping bread in oil while drink overpriced cask ale in poncy pubs..
Sorry went off on a bit of a rant there there..
Dont worry about them fancy buckled boots. Get yourself a pair of Dunlops. You'll blend in just fine..

Aigle Parcours ISO 2
I've done +40 days shooting this season in mine, along with fishing, dog walking, whatever.
They are expensive, but worth every penny in comfort and warmth.

I'm moving to the country soon so I to fit in I want to buy some tweed and some of them fancy wellies with the flappy buckles on the side.
For owners, can you tell me if they're comfy to wear for a days fishing and if they keep your feet warm because this has always been two things I've struggled with in wellies before.
Cheers
