Please could you recommend me some wellies.
I don't want to spend much, as I'm not convinced they are going to last that long, maybe just over winter/3-4 months, so as cheap as you can guys please!:o
Thanks!:)
 
Cheap wellies just dont work.

Ive had hunters for years and each pair lasted about 5 years.

Then 2 years ago when my last hunters died i bought some jules wellies, they lasted 6 weeks.
I tried other brands including cheap supermarket, and lots of other makes and none have lasted longer then 6 weeks.

I dont abuse them, dont ride in them just daily wear and tears.
Ive had so many pairs of weelies in the last couple of years ive spent more then if i bought a decent make.


So ive made my other half but new a new pair of hunters.
The £60 is well worth it!

Try hunters or bourbours.
 
Really? Hunters? I'd heard they were a bit a waste of money as they only lasted a few weeks if used "properly"!:rolleyes:
I'll have a look around for some cheap deals on them. I have a £16 voucher for Amazon and there are some on there for about £45, which means I'd only pay £29.:)
 
Hunters don't work either anymore!
They used to be the best and last years, back in the day, but since they moved their manufacturing from Scotland, they're now made from cheaper, lower quality materials and they split as easily as a £7 tesco pair!
 
I've been through 2 pairs of Hunters (one bright pink and one pale purple) and one pair of Joules in the last couple of years. I bought a pair of Ariat Mudbusters a few months ago and I love them to bits and pieces!! I couldn't stand the Hunters. They were cold and fell to pieces really quick. I was working on a livery yard at the time and using them all day, every day!

Really?

Maybe because i havent had a pair in a few years they have changed a lot since i had them.

What are the best wellies then?
 
Have posted this on other threads as well (hoping for a promotional pair lol!!!). The best wellies I have ever had are my Dublin neoprene lined ones which I got last winter for around £25 ( can't remember exactly but def no more than £30). They have thick soles and the neoprene lining keeps your feet at a great temp - cool in summer and toast in winter. I have already bought another pair in case something happens to mine, but nothing has yet and I have worn them every day through last winter and quite often (3-4 times per week) through the summer.
