roasted I share your pain I really do!
I have to say James always wears wellies and liners if it is snowing anyway but I do love Kickers - he is always very comfortable in them and we have had them lots.
Have you looked on asos? i love Bisgaard boots but ££££ although not that far off those Kickers I suppose. I am not personally a fan of Geox - mainly because my nephew wore them all his life (long story) and I have personal issues with velcro hee hee, though will give in to some brands.
Camper boots are gorgeous too and leather lined. Really soft and last well
