Need some serious welly boot help!! My feet are poorly :(

[ladyt25]

I work in a country shop and we have many wellies retuned to us! The majority being joules and hunter. The best that have had no returns are Seal wellies.

The le chemaue (bad spelling sorry)have become popular due to being seen on Kate Middleton.

Hope this helps

Yes Joules wellies are pap! Just returned my 3rd pair of £70 quid wellies and this time asked for my money back as fed up of them not lasting. The final pair didn't even make 2 mths! Joules though (god knows why) make them with a years guarantee.I imagine they only last a year if you never wear them! My sister's £10 wellies from homebase are still going strong after 2 years!!

I think with wellies the best aolution is to buy a cheap pair, and then you can replace every year if needed. I am actually wear primark wellies, (bought by my daughter for a festival 2 years ago) and pinched when my sherwood forest ones split. I have some furry yard hi-tecs, £15 for dog walking and yard wearing. 3 months in and doing well. Don't mind replacing each year at the price- it's the same as getting 4 years wear out of a £60 boot.

Tried this and I'm pretty sure they were 'fashion' wellies from primark!... 3 days they lasted, my feet ached due to no support, the soles were so thin I felt every stone under my foot and after having a near miss with a hoof, I decided I may as we'll have been wearing flip flops for all the protection they would have offered. Fashion wellies just don't cut the mustard when doing the sort of heavy duty work that we expect from our boots

I have totally given up on wellies, my feet were in a terrible mess, and they never last, this winter I invested in a pair of Northface Greenland boots, best thing I have ever bought, just keep my country boots for shows/good now, they are toasty warm, breathable and waterproof as well as being comfy, im never wasting money on crap horsey branded wellies again!
