got a pair of tay sport ones i paid £55 for them just over a year ago and they have all went up in price last month so they now £90 .. however i cant fault them apart from they are slippy as feck on wet stone , but they are warm and very comfy . you can wear them all day no prob ... as for barbed wire i think most would rip on barbed wire but they are easily repaired with a diving suit patch .. would recomend them to anyone ....
