My Eiger boots have bitten the dust from cracking and rips off fences.I did look after them best I could with the spray etc but they lasted just 2 years.I take size 12 but find many 12,s are too small so need good roomy ones.Cant consider the quality makes unfortunately.I saw a website recently flogging Hunter seconds for £20.Cant find it again tho. Thanks for all help.

Aigle ISO Paracours, very warm, very good tread.

Eski All Terrain are tough and have great grip.

 

You can get them in 12's at Parker Merchanting or W F Electrical, who I think are now agents of thiers.

 

I am a size 14 and they are a perfect fit, Steel or non steel toe caps.

You could get a pair of muck boots as they are good but try a pair of rigger boots, they are £40 and come in a sandy colour or brown, steel toe-capped, made of leather and are heard wearing. They are also woll lined to keep your feet warm. Just waterproof them with Nikwax and oil once every two months and they won't let you down. Main have been usd and abused for years and are still as warm and hardwearing as the day I brought them. Google them or look at a site that sells builders clothing

If you fancy leather type welies, Hunter Torlundy are excellent, (if still available). Wore mine to the foreshore the weekend, got them plastered in thick gloopy mud, let them dry in the kitchen once home, cleaned 'em, applied copious ammounts of brasher cream and they look like new once more. Bit expensive, need maintaining but really are unbeleivably comfy. I'd be gutted if I couldn't get another pair when the time comes to replace.

Maybe a pair of grade 1 military surplus Matterhorn Orions? I have a pair, used them in devon in 9" deep mud for a week without any attention and they didn't leak at all. They're £160ish new, but surplus makes them cheap. They will last you well, some of the best boots available in my opinion.

I just got myself a pair of neoprene lined wellies from army surplus, new cost £30, used them on the weekend with a pair of army socks £5 and they were nice and warm.....
