davhope Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 Can anybody recomend somewhere I can purchase a decent set of neoprene wellies without having to take out a second mortgage for them. Sub 100 pounds ish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc M Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 If you can pop over to Dumfries you'll get some amazing wellies from the Hunter factory there. I bought some Royal Hunters last season, they are neoprene AND fleece lined and are fantastically comfy and warm. I paid £82 from the Hunter factory compared to the full retail price of £135 in the shops. Must've been feeling flush that day too, I even bought the missus some too The Hunter Factory's number is 01387 269591. Marc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilishdave Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 (edited) Muck boots are fantastic for about £60. I walk 6-8 miles in mine 3 times per week for the last year dont get blisters and never to hot or cold in any weather. the grips on the bottom are fantastic although i beleive they have changed the sole on them. They are highly recomended as a cheaper boot but if you want the dogs conkers then it has to be the hunter royal.

Dunkield Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 I have got neoprene chameau's they are fantastic on cold days but way too hot on normal/warm days. I have had mine 7 years and wear them a couple times a week, just keep them fed with Amorall or similar. Chameau do a 'walking' boot now with a Vibram sole for a bit less money, they also have a funny French name that I can't remember at the moment, they are what I would go for now if I was to buy another pair today. Have a look at John Norris's web site for more options Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Country Boy Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 I got a pair of 'Blimeys', neoprene with full side zipper, from N&S shooting supplies in Cheshire. Warm/cool, comfortable and keep my feet dry. They were great value for money, had them two years no probs. Cheers, CB:} Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tenbears10 Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 Another vote for hunters. I have some Glen Trool leather lined side zip with neoprene lined foot. They are more comfortable than my zamberlan walking boots and so warm in winter. Keep an eye out on ebay and do a google search I got mine in Greenfield guns in Salisbury for £105 instead of the almost £200 RRP. All the boot people have brought out fancy leather gore tex lined boots this year. You wait until middle of next summer and they will all be on the sale rail (how many people are going to pay £300 for them full price).

Cranfield Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 I can't find any information about the Blimey boot (done a Google), how much do they cost ? They are not listed for sale on the N&S website. I need a new pair for the coming Winter and I don't fancy paying Le Chameux (sp?) prices.

lurcherboy Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 I got two pairs for some friends abroad. They choose the Blimey's from a list of price's and are very happy with them. £ 76-00 a pair. LB B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plexer Posted October 26, 2005 Report Share Posted October 26, 2005 I have to say that compared to my first pair which were around £10 from homebase my current le chameau chasseur boots are great and the best being I didn't pay the £200 for them I got them free by doing a learn direct course via the basc a couple of years ago.

Fisherman Mike Posted October 26, 2005 Report Share Posted October 26, 2005 Ive got some poncy leather lined Le chameau dogs danglers jobbies £250 plus quid a pair with zips up the side. Looks like a prop from the local S & M den, rubber fetish & all that. Didnt pay £250 for them though bought them as part of a job lot in a auction. I was only after the Chest of Drawers (£55.00) they were in the bottom along with other items of gentlemans attire. They were covered in mud and mouldy but probably only been worn the once. You get a lot of that around here. People buying the latest fashion accessory for Badminton or Gatcombe and then chucking it. Still looking for the elusive Purdey 16 G though..........
