I've heard Timberlands are among the best.....are they good for window cleaning? Don't know.

Timberland or Caterpillar, i,m in Timberland at the minute and have had this pair for 2 winters already, cost alot to buy but like my old man used to tell thers only 2 things you need and thats a good bed and a good pair of boots ! because if you aint in one you,ll be in the other.

Now those are some very very wise words. I took them to heart, my parents always say...if you get married, you need a good bed, didn't hear the Boots one yet!

I have a pair of Peter Storm boots, like a hiking boot but with a rubber toe.  Cost £30 and have lasted over a year, nice and warm and dry in all weather.  Also have a pair of Timberland boots, really good, dry, warm, comfy, look good but were £95.

we have just bought boots called muckers from a riding shop they are rubber up to the ankle and leather over ankle with velcro fastening they are totally water proof and can come with fur lining ideal for wfp.

Thanks Jeff.

I bought a pair of SCARPA hiking boots 5 years ago for £120
That is £24 a year!  Very cheap for excellent quality.
I now need a new pair of boots, although these will get me through this winter, just!
Totally waterproof to the ankles, warm room for thick socks and toes nicely spread.
Best boots I ever bought!  Probably more than £120 now.  The tread has worn low(really good grip + soft impact), but still completely waterproof.  I love them.
Don't know if I can justify £150 this winter, but I might!

Check out the name SCARPA.

Remember:  Buy cheap......buy twice....

How's about a pair of these Derri boots http://www.derriboots.com/

I wear any decent hiking boots provided all the uppers are made from gortex. I usually pay £50 - £70.

There's nothing worse than having wet feet on a freezing cold day.
