Im wearing muckers look rubbish indestructable and warm cheap ,how about you? I do have the brand type of boots as well but love my mucjers for grip and toughness
 
Muck boot tay sport - always have warm feet. The only things I have found that don't leave me crippled with ice block feet!! I don't look fancy in them, but hobbling around because you can't feel your feet doesn't look all that fetching either!! This is their second winter and they still look good as new, I'm one happy customer!
 
Grasmeres here too - well actually they're Glaciers but no-one knows them and everyone knows Grasmeres.
 
I swear by Muck Boots to keep my feet warmer in winter. However, they only ever last me through one winter, so this year I've bought the HKM equivalent at half the price of the real Muck Boots. They've been brilliant so far in this cold, and if they too only last me one season, then I've saved money whatever!
 
Another vote for muck boots generally. I also have Dublin something or other (with the laces down the sides, like the ariats only cheaper!!)

And hunters - not standard ones, but again can;t remember what they were called, half zip side and neoprene.

Thin socks then thick socks.
 
These Sorels

I am ridiculously in love with these boots. I actually bought mine 10 years ago in Colorado in a Hardware store for about $40 which now seems like a bit of a bargain. They are awesome, so warm and I never ever slip. Nipped outside in my hunters for 10 minutes yesterday, and when I came in my toes started burning as they warmed up. That never happens in my Sorels. They aren't that long, but the sheepskin means no snow gets down them; and as our snow is currently over the knee, I wear waterproof trousers anyway, and no wellies would do the job.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE them :D. Mind you I'm in Scotland, so happy to invest in something for snow, plus I wear them when I'm away skiing too, so they are worth every penny for me.

Plus, I look Lumberjack-Chic in them :p

I'm wearing a pair of fur lined rigger boots, they are a size too big for me so I have to wear 3 pairs of socks but they always keep my feet toasty warm, never leak and I don't slip on ice either - super cool boots (though they do make me look a bit like a golf club:D)
 
I'm wearing Dublin Pinnacle boots, with a normal pair of socks and then a pair of Joules long fluffy socks as well. xxxx
 
Depends, options are:

1. Muck boot fur lined rubber things for general use
2. Steel toecapped mountain horse walking boots
3. riding boots for riding

However, once santa has been and deemed my behaviour good, I shall be wearing my ariat grasmeres! :)
 
I must have great circulation because I'm just wearing my normal cheapie jodhpur boots with normal socks. I find that as long as I have two pairs of trousers, and a thick coat on I'm fine!
 
I was wearing grasmeres, but went down like a sack a spuds in them, not great on ice. Im now wearing, Torray muck boots, they are really warm you dont need loads of pairs of socks with them.
 
I'm wearing Woof Wear long boots and will be all winter for around the yard, riding and walking dogs.
Not had cold feet yet (apart from on sundays longer hack:()
 
I'm a bit of a nutter really!

trainers, no socks most of the time!

hubby goes mad at me, but i am pushed for time at the mo and they are quicker to slip on rather than messing with my horsey boots and socks. My feet arnt even cold though, even when i am down there hours!
 
I won't wear my grasmeres in the snow, might spoil them :) At the moment I'm wearing tredstep socks and Ariat mud buster wellies, they are so warm and comfortable.
 
2 pairs of normal socks and Ariat Grasmeres. Am in love with the Ariats - started off with 2 pairs of normal socks plus a thick pair of barbour socks in hunter wellies but my feet were freezing and I was sliding all over the shop so switched to the Ariats - it's even worth the lace-up time! :D
 
I'm wearing Mark Todd Cook boots. This is their third winter and I love them. I stay warm and dry in them and I just hose the muck off when I want to ride.
 
Don't shoot me down, but I'm actually wearing my cheapy ugg boots :S Not very safety conscious, but they keep my tootsies warm, and amazingly I find them quite good in the snow and ice, not once have I slipped in them!!
Otherwise I'll be wearing my ariat mudbusters, or my muck boots!
 
Muckers - Dublin ones I think, can't remember which ones I bought and which ones OH bought lol. Fleece soled ones anyway. Lovely and warm with just a thin pair of socks, as long as I'm moving around. Much warmer and gripper than the muck boots I had last year.
