Ive just googled them and they are between £92 and £140. They do look good and would guess they will last a lifetime.
I will look out for them in the shops so I can try them on for size.

i have a pair of hunter wellies, so i might give them a go tomorrow, have been wearing mu cat boots, but they still let in the water and my trousers get soaked, so hopfuly the wellies will keep me drier, might need a couple of pairs of socks to keep me tootsies warm.

Got them for £97.50 delivering included, never had them off my feet for days.  I even bought my dearly beloved a pair, I was going to save them as a  christmas present, but was told point blank that "You're not giving me wellies as a christmas present!!!"

She seems to thing they are "essentials" and not luxuries, I agree, wellies are essentials, however AIGLES are luxuries!!

Still don't think I'll win the argument, but they're going under the tree anyway if only to bulk up her pile!!!

Good old ebay

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320621286756&var=510020585164&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

The free gift was a cream pashmina (manmade) scarf!!

Sue's cost me 10p more as they didn't have her size:

But she's worth it  ;)
You spoil her  ;D
I just had a look but they havent got size 11. I asked the question when they are back in stock. Will buy as soon as they come in.
Cheers mate

I always wear Derry type boots (similar to wellies but shorter, more supple and fur type lined). You can walk and drive in them.  Wear them under trousers.
 
I wear them from Nov to March ish.
 
Don't need thick socks, just normal.  Brilliant. Cost about £30

Pair of Dunlop wellies with thick pair of tube ski socks, is the ticket.

Recently bought a pair of AIGLE PARCOURS ISO NEOPRENE wellies, they are the business, went out for a 6 mile walk with the dog in the snow yesterday, tootsies stayed warm as toast all the way round  :)

I've tried Le Chameau and Hunter wellies but they're not a patch on Aigles.
