Having nearly told my DH that I was going to consult with you lot as to what wellies I should buy, I then promptly forgot!I think we should start a recommendation list as to what we have bought that works well for us, what do you think?
My stream of musings....
My Hunters have gone at the ankle only 3 yrs old, my last pair were 10 or so. I think that wearing liners in them, over my jeans pushed them down too much and they went on the ankle flex bit.
DD bought me some Joules ones for my birthday at the weekend bright aqua with chooks on (oh how they would have laughed at gundog training), but I am fat of calf and could not pull them up with my jeans tucked in.
I swapped them for some 'original muck boots' which are really warm and great for winter dog walking (mucking out, feeding chooks etc) although they are a bit on the roomy side so I have to wear extra socks.
Whilst at the feed store, I gazed longingly at the full length waterproofs. I seem to think Bella once posed a dryzabone vs barbour query on here? But I only walk now, no riding, and really they are quite heavy. I've got a standard Barbour - which is a bit sticky and wiffy and I get too hot walking chasing my damned dog.
They had a lighter fabric coat, maybe called Arthur Murphy? aorund £50 looked light and as if it would pack up smallish - I hate it when I guage the weather wrong and have to lug a heavy wax coad around.
What say you dog walkers?
