Outdoor boots/shoes

8 replies

I’m looking for some outdoor boots/shoes and have about £100 to spend. I keep looking but end up lost!

Requirements are
Waterproof
Suitable for walks on the beach during winter/ walks in parks / walk to train station / suitable on a campsite
I don’t hike or walk miles so it doesn’t need to be a proper walking boot?

Any ideas or suggestions?

I just got the short hunters and they are actually so comfy! Look really stylish too. I throw them on for everything from supermarket to the library.

I bought these last year, and they are one of the comfiest things I have ever put on my feet! I struggle with rubbing and have bunions but these were comfy straight away. Added bonus that they're warm and waterproof.

If you look at their own website, they have lots of styles to choose from, but these were one of the cheapest.

Bareback footwear boots are very good - just started selling them at mountain warehouse so might get some deals there:

Also love my short Hunter wellies

I don't feel as constrained as normal wellies. Easier to run after the dog on the beach. Also good for agility classes in a damp muddy field

@Newmeagain these are nice but way too expensive!

@MrsJHernandez i saw these actually - but was reluctant because of the white and the grip. Are they slippy at all? How have they held up?

@Toddlerhelpplease123 i have a short pair of welly boots but looking for something a bit sturdier I think!

@Mytholmroyd I saw these on a separate website and wasn’t sure if they were a good brand or not so good to know it’s another option!

Second Bareback boots. A bit over your budget but I've just bought my second pair after wearing my first for 3 years every day with dog/horses. They are a great fit (my feet are wide) and are completely waterproof as well as super comfortable.

@Croissantcup

I've only had them about 3 months. So still in very good condition.

The soles are good - not slippy at all. However the white edges do get a bit dirty. But nothing a cloth, water & soap or an anti-bac kitchen wipe won't fix. The rest of the shoe doesn't mark easily.

Bought mainly for walking the doggies and they're good for that. Also smart enough for shopping/errands etc.

I'm generally a size 6 and ordered a 6.

I'm so glad I bought these! If you do decide to purchase them, you won't regret it!

If you order from m&s, you can click and collect for free. If you don't like them, just return them in store and you're not out of pocket.
