Kids' wellies that definitely do not leak?

The only ones I've found so far that are definitely leakproof are Aigle, but they're not cheap and they seem to be out of stock everywhere online.

What else should I try?

I have never come across a leaking welly. I used to buy them in Woolworths, but the last lot came from Clarks, I think.

crocs wellies are great but a bit pricy

Woolies ones definitely leaked for my girls. Maybe they do something weird in their wellies Confused

I'll have a look at Clarks, thanks!

Wow, crocs are about twice the price of Aigle Shock

Are you sure there wasn't just water splashing in from the top?

I'm quite baffled by leaking wellies! Aren't they made from one lump of moulded plastic?

Maybe I've just had years of blissful ignorance. Don't tell me I'm going to have to shell out on Hunters!

No, not splashing in - I did check that. I think there's a sealed seam between upper and sole in many boots?

Anyway I'm on ebay now - might as well get some cheap ones if I'm not getting aigle!

I've never had leaky wellies either. We got our last ones from Matalan. The supermarkets also sell them. Homebase also sell them.

We've also never had leaky wellies, DD has had Kidorable, Katvig, Asda and unbranded from TKmaxx, with no leaks.

Just wish I could find wellies wide enough for my mahoosive legs Blush
