Good grip wellies

6 replies

Witsend2023 · 27/12/2023 15:09

Hello!
I'm after some comfy wellies with the sort of good grip that walking boots have. I dog walk etc daily and have always preferred walking boots. However the consistent wet weather means that I am constantly splashed up my legs or walking through deeper mud and walking boots just aren't cutting it.
Any suggestions of any please? Muck boots and grubs keep coming up on my search, don't mind spending a bit but are they worth it?
Thanks

Not cheap but Rockfish are the queen of wellies. The 5mm neoprene ones are amazing - hard wearing and I've never had cold feet in winter in them despite having horses and wading about in mud a lot.

*they're also pretty grippy

I have Le chameau. They have withstood 3 years of my dc learning to ride on mostly unsuitable ponies so I've trekked out on foot along roads more miles than I care to think about as well as doing all the muddy yard jobs. Showing no real signs of wear yet either. I have the cheaper range of the neoprene. Pricey compared to some but 100% worth it imo

I like rockfish wellies. Sometimes you can get some colours cheaper. I don’t have the neoprene ones. They last really well. I get about 18 months out of a pair. ( On a farm so wellies on all the time).

I've just invested in Le Chameau wellies... they are a revolution!
SOOO comfy.. somehow soft (I can even drive in them) and warm and they fit without leaving baggy gaps.
I'm out in all weathers with the dog, and have an allotment so I live in wellies and have gone through lots of pairs. Hideously expensive (I have the neoprene lined one) but a game changer for comfort. They also come up high which is great given the current state of the fields round where I live...under water!
