 I bought a pair of these instead £20.00 leather and steel toe caps. Better than trainers and looks more proffesional.

Yes but for £20 notes if they last the winter then theyre worth every penny.

i dont recommend safety shoes with anti-slip soles. i gave these a go the other week- they support my foot well and look professional,leather uppers, but they  ARE NO GOOD on wet ladder rungs.

il second that i had a pair lasted 3 months,sole worn very fast and leaked,look good when new but are cr*p

if you want cheap boots that are good for the money try dickies iv only had a pair 2 months but they still in good condition and harder wearing plus great grip

I've worn them today but although they look good theyre really heavy to walk around in. Felt like I had a 51b weight in each shoe so it'll be back to the trainers tomorrow I'm afraid to say.

Guys...seriously muck boots are really , really...good...

I have always had military type boots then went the gortex route...but Muck boots really are the dogs....

The only ´iffy´bit is the sole is a bit soft...and wear...so I have had mine re-shod after wearing them down....

they are so comfortable and warm...but they also breath and leave the foot dry unlike normal wellies...

I wish I know about them years ago...

Cheers
Dave.
