Wullz 408 Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 Get a pair of decent wellies, it hurts, but it makes sense. Good ones keep you warm and dry and they last! I have been wearing my LeChameaus for 3 seasons now....brilliant wellies.....still going strong...... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bosun11 537 Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 I've given up on wellys, i'm on FF's boat an got meself a pair of Dunlops, cheap, hardwearing, cold and uncomfortable BUT for excercising the dogs over the fields when wet, they've outlasted all the £100+ jobs i've bought before. I'd also add that they won't be used on any 'work' based jaunts, only there to increase the lifespan of my boots. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
