I got new wellie's a couple of weeks ago. They're still killing me! But luckily I'm able to break them in properly (can you break in a rubber boot??) as I do a lot of dog walking with my crazy springer!

Hope your feet stay dry ...  


Peace x

I got these for Christmas. Very comfortable, lightweight and most importantly waterproof (Although I wont need to prove that this year, fingers crossed!).

if you already have boots that may not be quite all they could be on the waterproof front add a pair of these to your kit

you can get high leg ones that would fit in motorcycle boots or 14 eye martens or lower leg ones that fit nice in 8eylet martens.

Fully waterrproof and you can fold em up and put em in your pocket.

all you need to do before hand is slap on a load of nikwax onto your boots and save shelling out on new ones

Hells teeth we did our first breaking in da boots walk on Sunday - 4 miles in new leather walking boots - we were hobbling by the time we got back, they rubbed like feck on our legs. Little trips from now on and super thick socks me thinks
