Just wondered everyones opinions on good winter footwear.
I've got Mukluks but the liners are shagged and they don't sell them anymore. Any reccomendtions for new liners or competely new boots? |

Wish I knew mate.
Ive got Skeetex rubber wellies and you can destroy the liners in a few trips if you have to walk far, feels like you've got jelly inside them. Wellies far too cold, chest waders far too hot, you need something that will stay waterproof rather than it seeping through in a few hours so waterproof walking boots don't do. God I'm depressed now, better not go fishing and stay at home. Only joking, I bought (at great expense) some Aigle neoprene lined wellies yesterday, I'll see how they go. Phil |

Skeetex if little walking is involved
Neoprene Wellies if there is. |

Skeetex wellies are really good,you don`t need thick socks to keep your feet warm,but as Phil says they are not the best boots for walking in.( you can buy replacement liners).
If you`re looking for lighter boots, Chub field boots are also excellent,they`ve got rubber on the lower part of the boot so you can stand in a couple of inches of water without your feet getting wet and really good for walking in. |

Titanium Ice Dragon boots from Teme-Severn, see here, got mine last autumn and kept my feet dry and snug all winter with only one pair of socks on, great for walking the muddy fields, would recommend to anyone.
Cheers Jas |

Just bought some of the Wychwood Rogue boots. Easy to walk in, insulated with thinsulate, easy to clean mud off etc.
Early days yet, so wouldnt be prepared to recommend them yet, but at £29.95, they seem okay. Wurzel http://www.barbelzone.co.uk/
