DogMan85 722 Posted January 25, 2017 Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 I'm wanting to buy some wellies for work as the cheap ones we are provided with are useless and my feet feel like they are going to drop off. I'm looking at buying the Dunlop Purofort safety wellingtons, everybody at work has them and say they are pretty fcuking amazing. Has anybody on here had a pair?

cragman 2,631 Posted January 26, 2017 Report Share Posted January 26, 2017 They're good wellies for work, last for ages and are warm. Can start to feel heavy later in the day if you're in them for long. I've a pair of 9s going here, hardly worn. 35£ plus p and p which will be a fair bit I'd say unless you're local, north west Quote Link to post Share on other sites

First time I've heard that about them, what's wrong with them? Early pairs were good, the last couple that I bought split in the middle of sole where they flex, got Bekina and have them over a year, farmers in Ireland mostly wear Dunlop or Bekina, but I think for the money, you'd want to be getting over the year.

The one 8,396 Posted January 26, 2017 Report Share Posted January 26, 2017 Never rated wellies alway ended up with a cough as my feet where always cold a good long length pair of leather boots Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jonnie bravo 572 Posted January 26, 2017 Report Share Posted January 26, 2017 Vass make the most solid wellies I've come accross. I've had mine for 10 years and they get some abuse but they are pretty much as good as new, all you need is a foam insole and a wool insole and you will want to live in them.

On a side note I was in john Norris of Penrith a few weeks back they wanted 350 for a pair of wellies. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nice comfortable wellies but way too expensive to use every day and wear out. More for folks who shoot and get ferried about in range rovers 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DogMan85 722 Posted January 26, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2017 I need them for work, we do a lot of work in water around culverts. I noticed the Dunlop wellies come in different classes like agricultural and industrial. I don't really know the difference as both have steel toecaps and midsole protection.
