Walking boots are designed for walking on footpaths. I don't understand why people buy them for work.

Daz are they a leather boot or fabric elaborate please .

usually fabric but ive had the leather ones too.they all last roughly the same amount of time worn every day for work all year round(18 months) and both keep feet dry in wet weather.

I found the Berghaus GTX really comfy but they just didn't keep their waterproof ability long enough, always the left boot first - I had the leather ones. I think all footwear is churned out of the same factories these days so changing brands makes little difference. At the moment I'm using Northface Chillkats. All good so far two pairs for about £120 I think I paid.

i buy them because they work for me.very comfortable straight out of the box,they keep feet dry.excellent padding for ankles and good grip.what more do you want?

ive tried all the karrimor crap and all the other cheap boots years ago........and they are just that.....rubbish IMO.they dont keep your feet dry and are ready for chucking  in the bin within 6 months.

ive never had a pair that leaked within 18 months?and i do work in some pretty crap weather at times dave.

[Dave Willis]

I buy two of everything and rotate them I've gone through at least four pairs of Berghaus boots. Comfiest boots I ever had but they all leaked way before they showed signs of wear. I think the leather uppers come away from the soles somewhere.
Usually buy them from Gaynor Sports of Ambleside.

I tried Brasher Hillmasters - DON'T they are lethal in the wet and wear the soles completely smooth in six months.

Walking boots are designed for footpaths and hills. That's why they don't last. They aren't designed for work.

I thought you wore cowboy boots .
