Guest scramble Posted September 2, 2012 Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 depends on the type, they have changed over the last few years i believe but still some old types knocking about. ive used the old type for a few years i find them great for the winter. not sure on the new ones that are being issued now.

jayjay 264 Posted September 3, 2012 Report Share Posted September 3, 2012 i've got british boots which are gortex and a copy of the lowa's........and i've also got a pair of the lowa's, and the lowa's are by far a better boot, in my opinion,and they are the ones i also tend to favour when going out, and another good pointer of the lowa's is.... they are quick to lace up, the british boots have got to be threaded through the lace loops right to the top, which i consider a bit of a pain,as i said.....just my personal preference and opinion. cheers, jay.
