I have got to get out walking more for my health with my toddler and baby in their double buggy. Its a really hilly walk into the city where I live and have nothing suitable to wear.

Safe practical and stylish? Hoping you can help!

Dr Marten Flora, available in burgundy or black, both of which are lovely. Don't fall for all of the "NOOOOOO THEY'RE MADE IN THE FAR EAST" rubbish - all of mine are the new Eastern-made type, and I haven't had a single pair break or wear out in the 8 years I've been wearing them. (I have 1 smart pair of 8 holers, 1 (literally) everyday pair of 8 holers, 1 pair of formal boots, 1 pair of gothy heeled boots, and 1 pair of walking boots - all DMs, all still in great condition.)

Jodhpur boots? Quite classic and waterproof and decent sole. Ridiculously cheap on e Bay. Only black or brown though
