Great Wellies on offer at the start of 2010.

With snow all around us this weather is well suited to getting our wellies out and making sure our feet are warm and dry. There are so many brands and styles of wellington boots we’re certainly not stuck for choice. We’ve picked out a few boots we think are good value for money and reckon each will be durable for winters to come.

First up are the classic lace up wellingtons by Hunter. Beside the striking red shown you can get a variety of colours like chocolate or aubergine which suits the ‘casual’  style. For us  Hunter lead the way as far as wellies are concerned and are built to last. The gum rubber sole and rubber outer shell shield the nylon inner lining parceled neatly with the lace up front styling.

You can purchase Hunter Women’s Original Lace Wellies from Amazon.

The polyamide jersey lining is not only fast-drying and washable but is also rot proof.

Ok, ok these have ‘chav‘ written all over them but who can resist the trademark UGG wool lining that oozes comfort.  The Millcreek woman’s wellies by UGG Australia rate highly by us for the sheepskin lining. We can’t think of a better material to keep your toes warm during those harsh winter months.

Bullseye Men's Wellies Bullseye Men's Wellies side view

Last but not least is an all rounder. The sturdy general men’s wellington boot by Bullseye is great for any weather or any season due to it’s extensive use in the garden for general purpose work. So it doesn’t need to be winter to buy a pair of wellies and if your looking for general purpose wellies Bullseye’s are worth looking into. They have a traditional calendered natural rubber sole and a multi-layer sponge insole.

CUSTOMER REVIEW……..

By  Alan Mills “Alan” (Southampton UK)

Purchased two days ago, my wellies are comfortable to wear and not heavy. The grip is certain and the finish is quality expected from Hunter. I’d commend this style to anyone who needs unobtrusive practical footwear.

Time to talk Wellies!

 

There’s been so much rain in the UK over the past few days and guess what…There’s more to come before the week’s out!  So, we think it’s time to talk wellies??

There are so many great designs to choose from these days, and you can really make a statement and brighten up a miserable day.  I love the classic Hunter tall wellington boot which is readily available on the likes of Amazon and high street shops like Shuh.  There are so many colours to choose from and there’s plenty of room around the top for movement and tucking in!  The buckle at the top allows you to pull them closed in order to try to keep things out ( water, snow, dirt, leaves, etc.).  The optional liners are wonderful and easy to wash. Keep feet warm, cosy and dry which is a nice thing during Autumn and Winter! 
Hunter wellies  will last for years and years with proper care!

Converse Unisex All Stars

off the back of the ‘clash and converse’ blog i did a bit of trawling to see what’s available out there for this cult piece of footwear and found Amazon to be very competitively priced(in fact couldn’t find them cheaper) and also have a wide variety of color stylings. If your into these at all i’m sure you’ll find a variation that suits your needs!

Vibram’s line of FiveFingers shoes

glove-shoes.jpgI find these intriguing to say the least. I’m not a runner but i’d really like to find out if anyone who is is actually using them and finds them a benefit over the ordinary running shoe. Be interested in anyone less than happy with them as well. I see them as the perfect bit of footwear for when your in the sea amoungst rocky terrain. Take a look at some of the other varieties over at VIBRAM
