P5HEN 168 Posted July 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 well the hunters are already ordered so ill just wear them to destruction, then ill be definately investing in a pair of the dunlops ill get them from the link i put up though, £20 quid cheaper than the ebay link bosun, cheers Quote Link to post
Chid 6,789 Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 I reckon youll be going for the dunlops sooner than you think ... 4 months my hunters lasted me ... followed by 6 weeks for a pair of seeland ... I went for dunlop puroforts after being recommend them , 6 months and they dont even look like theyve been worn , and my boots get some stick Quote Link to post
Blackdog92 2,047 Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 The Dunlop thermo+ are not indestructible the longest I've had a pair last is 2 years and I've just found them to be heavy clumpy and numb. They will be ok for on a building site or I use to were them when working with my cows as the steel toe gives you a bit of protection. If you're having to put a few miles in I wouldnt advice buying them because they are ridiculously heavy and rather cumbersum. I've recently bought a pair of the hunter balmoral neoprene and they are a sound welly defiantly recommend. 1 Quote Link to post

I walk miles in mine, in fact there never off my feet , I dont find the ones I have heavy or clumbersum , there comfy imo , I suffer with a bad knee that gets worse in heavy boots but these dont seem to bother it ... ive had my feet stood on by horses, stood in cow and horse piss and shite and oil and grease , and they still look new.. best wellys ive bought imo mine arent the ones in bosuns link mine are these ones but in steel toe best of all I got them for £26 on special offer http://www.agribarn.com/product/dunlop-purofort-plus-non-safety/ Quote Link to post

P5HEN 168 Posted July 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 there is a non safety dunlop puro wthout the steel toe, would buy them might be a bit lighter, and cleanspade, keep the spade clean and cement wont stick to it, like ya wellies , lets see how long the hutners last Quote Link to post
