I've found you get what you pay for. I tried all the cheap 'waterproof' boots and a pair of guaranteed waterproof Hi-tec ones, none of them got past two months. Wearing a pair of Brashers up to this hot weather I think I paid around £120 in a sale. They've been going good for a fair time now.

thanks for reply
what type of brashers boot are there

[Central Window Cleaners]

I wear DeWalt steel toe cap boots and have never had a problem with water getting through them.

I paid about £30 for them from Makro and have been wearing them for over 2 years now

looking for a light weight type of boot

I've tried lots of footwear and have now found the ultimate!!!

For winter I got a pair of british army goretex boots from Ebay. brand new for £36 delivered. So comfortable, dry and warm!!

For summer I got a pair of Hitec multiterra aero. http://www.hi-tec.com/in/40758-product-multiterra_aero-all.html.
These are designed for wearing in water (rivers, sea etc) so they dry quickly unlike regular trainers. I got them in Swindon outlet centre for about £25 last year and still going strong. Also great in this hot weather as you can run your customers garden top over them to cool your feet down

Spend £100+ on some and don't think about it again for a few years.

When I do the insides I always kick my shoes off out of courtesy.  Have you ever stood on a big Lego brick wearing only socks?

[DaveG]

yes and ive also stood on a 1 inch nail bare foot in both feet (at different times)

No it was not on purpose it was totally accidental.

I put shoe covers on when i go indoors (or wear slippers)

I've tried to find shoe covers. B&Q being the most obvious place, but no they don't sell them.

Where do you get them from?

I use the Dickies, sandy coloured 'Timberland' type boot with steel toecap from Wickes, lasted well over a year, £36.99 may be cheaper instore.
