Have had most makes of soft walking boots berghause, merril, high tech, north face etc and the best ones by far were called scarpa I think, got them from go outdoors, I tend to kill a pair most winter

It was the wet type sold by our local departement d'eau.  If you want some I'll send it. It will just cost you postage.

In all fairness thats not such a terrible idea

any folk on here recommend a boot similar to this type ,water resistant/proof as possible and not toooo expensive...i have Meindl boots so leather is not what im looking for this time...much appreciated if you could

 

got to say im not interested in Berghaus or Karrimor

I just bought a pair of merrel moabs and i'm not impressed ,they come up small so get a size bigger if you do go for them.i replaced a pair of salomons with them and there not comfy compared to them and the solomons lasted 2 years and I wore them every day, and the merrel moabs are leathal on wet rock they really are slippy

I was just about to suggest scarpa, 2 of the anglers I rate highest wear them and do ALOT of rough ground, up and down cliffs and across all terrain
