Boots ?

[stewybill 10]

Hello to all.

 

Now then, I can’t be forking out a hundred quid for waterproof walking boots, so, can anyone suggest some decent cheaper ones please ?

 

I walk around Treeton/The Rother a lot.

 

Thanks.

 

Bill.

Mountain Warehouse often have decent-ish boots for around 30 - 40 quid.  I wouldn't fancy using them for fell walking or expect them to take much abuse but I'm sure they'd be more than fine for what you're after.

 

I think there's a branch at the new retail park near Meadowhead.

Hitec boots from Go Outdoors for low level or well maintained paths.

A few years ago, I bought two  pairs of Quechua water proof boots from Decathlon down Moor. £40 per pair at the time. I don't do much walking, but if I need to walk anywhere in cold wet weather I will wear these.

I also have two pairs of karrimore walking shoes, £30 from Sports direct inside meadowhall. Very comfortable, and obviously lighter than boots.
