Either Aigle or le chameau get them pretty much anywhere and they're both around the £100 mark. Worth it though.

Depends on your budget... The le chameau and aigle ones are good neoprene models... If your flush with cash go for the le chameau leather lined zip jobs, easy on and off, feet don't sweat half as much as neoprene ones... Hear good reviews about muckboots, warm and comfortable, nearly every pair I've seen have been ripped off bramble or barb, seem to rip easier than other boots?

Toggies for me mate. Had mine for 3 seasons. Neopryne lined and full side zip up. Comfy as fcuk and cost me about £60 at the time. They should do another 2 or 3 seasons i reckon.

Dunlop Purofort are my wellies of choice. I wear them nearly every day and they last about 10 yrs :) Not exactly stylish or elegant, but they do the job and are warm in winter. Can walk miles in them too! Price around £45 from farm shops (they are a bit erm... agricultural)

I'm in the market for some new galloshes at the moment, so i'll come in handy to know whats out there, seen all the Le Chameau & Agile stuff but was wonderin if theres anythin else out there.

TimmyK off here has recently gone and got himself a pair of 'Cobras', says they are snake proof and if we end up in a field full of snakes, i'm fecked!!!
He read the write ups on 'em and it took a while to locate 'em but he did. Got to admit, they look sturdy and comfy enough but though he says they are a welly, they don't look like your average pair, time and fields will tell. ;)

I have the Tay muckboots, bought from uttings.com, they are comfortable and warm (a bit too warm in summer). I havent worn mine much but I dont think they will stand up to barbed wire very well for your use hbg.
