WALKING SLIPPERS

Super comfy,waterproof and really lightweight.
Sole won't last as long as leather.Not much support.
I think these boots are great,no breaking in at all,waterproof,so lightweight and I like the way they look.Not a lot of support as the leather is comfy soft but they're not really for moutains or rocky ground.Superb for light/moderate walking.Shop around and get them for under 100 quid.

A1 APART FROM THE PRICE!

As the Ad says they really are very light and have found to be completely waterproof. Do take time to wash, clean and proof each time use. It pays.
Have found the soles/heels do wear rather more quickly than I would expect from such a pricy item. Also my second pair no longer have the lace locking arrangement that is so useful.
An expensive, but in the main a decent, reliable article. Cost of resoling/heeling painful! But having said that with perfect uppers, one really has little choice.

GREAT COMFY BOOT

comfy straight out of the box-genuinely no breaking in time needed, worn them in and around torridon on some really wet days and have always had dry feet by the end of the day
bit flimsy on the sole unit-foot bed could be a bit more supportive to foot needs but having said that i haven't had any issues with my feet at the end of any long days out in the lakes.....
would buy these again mainly for the summer-great for hot days out to keep feet from over heating

LIGHT COMFORTABLE BOOT

Very light, didn't need to be worn in, soft and never let me down in the wet weather.
The thin sole made anything else other than moorland and low land walking slight painful. Not much grip on rocks, especially wet rocks. Not much support.
Ideal for the walking in the lowlands and moorlands. I wore them straight from the box and rarely have any problems with my feet after a days walking in the peaks. I don't regret paying the price but now have to consider buying another pair of boots for mountains/rocky conditions.
