I use them for work and hunting, walked miles in them as they fit your feet like a pair of boots, won't slice them open like La chameau, warmest wellies I've ever worn, piss over the Dunlop performo and buckboots, Do they do them without the toecaps pal, are they heavy things?

Greyman 25,356 Posted December 17, 2020 Report Share Posted December 17, 2020 If you drill one inch holes all over them,I’m sure you will get the weight down a bit if your old man is doing a 10 mile dog walk in wellies I,m sure an extra ounce per foot won’t hold him back, my old man moved to a bungalow so he don’t have to walk up stairs ffs 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Daniel cain 42,946 Posted December 17, 2020 Report Share Posted December 17, 2020 Not that heavy, the toecap and plates in the soles are ceramic coated... Never had cold feet in them and only need 1 pair of socks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PLEDGEY 493 Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 Get some of these. The best wellys I've had. Because you can do the top up the warm air inside don't get pushed out, like bellows, when you walk. Some times they are too hot.....and they is cheap as chips!. https://www.shop.hastrovolos.com/fishing/accessories/other/spirale-boot-detail.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Read up on em mate got good reviews. My brother was raving about his Buckbootz that he has for work. He went on a walk with my dad and begged him to swap wellies as his Buckbootz gave him massive blisters on his heels. Edited January 5, 2021 by Greb147 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
