following on from the recent hunter welly issues my pair are going back 2moro! only had them 3 weeks and have soggy toes already!!! (just need to find the receipt...)

anyway - does anyone have any suggestions for a nice new pair? happy to spend upto £80ish... really like the dublin river boots

Dublin River boots are brilliant!

my muck boots did not even last a year!

Lovely and warm, but have not so lovely holes in several places. (had the tack boot )

This year I have the mark todd cook winter boot,they are again very warm,and they look very strong, but have only had them 3 weeks so have no idea how long they actually will last.

i know you said you have a budget but...
dubarry's are a brilliant purchase..
i have had mine fo rjuts over a year and i got them for my birthday. my mum had had hers for over ten years and they are still in good working order....they are expensive i will grant you that but they dont come much better...
and theya re comfy to ride in too!

ill be waiting until this time next year for dubarrys!
have a student loan to pay off and cannot justify them

only reason I like the dublins is I can get away with wearing them to young farmers discos in the middle of fields! just look a bit nicer than wellies!

I've had the toggi hudson country boots for over two years now and they are still going strong and so so comfortable. They are dear in robinsons but I'm sure you can find them cheaper elsewhere. I paid about £90 from mole valley farmers.

my muck boot tynes (the riding ones) lasted 6 weeks (and I mean every seam gone)! But as they were a present and i don't know where they came from they wouldn't take them back!

The normal muck boots are better though - my mums are 2 years old but the soles are completely bald now!

I have normal muck boots (i got through 5 paird of wellies last year!!!) and also the ones you ride in - i dont wear the ones you can ride in everyday but iv had them 3 years and still waterproff, they are splitting a bit at the seams but i would reccomend them to any one

(i know i cant spell sorry!!)

Ariat wellies are good and yes i know they are wellies mine are just going into their second winter no problem at all. Muck boots pile of poo dont last long. I do wonder how waterproof the dublin ones would be as well.

I have a pair of country boots by Rydale (I think) they are wonderful, use them for riding and in the yard, and they are warm.

 

[hollyandivy123]

[Dsoper]

I have Muck Boots, ( The riding ones) I have had them a couple of years, they are fab around the yard and soo warm in cold weather plus you can ride in them as well.
