can anybody point me in the right direction i need a pair of non slip wellingtons as the pair i have got are rubbish and i end up sliding all over the place when there is anything wet or damp i even sliped over on our kitchen floor in them the over day as one of the children droped some water on the floor and i went streight over so i need a non slip pair i have a pair of boots ( For everyday ware but they are not waterproff )and the sole is great they dont slip on any serface please help before i break my neck or somthing else thank you
I don't know if you want fleecy ones but I got a pair a few weeks ago with a fleecy liner & they seem pretty good on wet ground: www.independentoffers.co.uk They were £25 though, lining comes out to wash. Not very pretty I'm afraid.
Thank you for that not worried about looking pretty as they are only for walking dogs and in the kennels but they start at size 4 and i am only a size 3 so not good i am afraid but thank you

I saw some wellies /boot type in a garden centre recently so it may be worth taking a look there!
I've got a pair of Hunters - they weren't cheap but they are very comfy and have lasted years and years as tatty-ead says. Completely waterproof too! Wish they did them in all those colours when I got my boring green ones. Traditional I suppose but still boring LOL!!
I have the Le Chameaus that are priced at £40 on that link and they've lasted me 4 maybe 5 years - can't remember when I bought them. I don't think Hunters are any cheaper?
I have walking boots too, much better for walking long distances in as they support the foot better - even they were a bargain £22 - brand new Regatta coated leather ladies walking boots!
I got fed up of slipping in wellies, so I went on ebay and bought myself a brand new pair of walking boots still with label on and in the box for a whole £3.70. They don't slip at all in the mud and wet and keep my feet dry.
walking boots are ok but i need somthing i can kick of at the back door that's why i like wellingtons as they are easy to take of thank you for all your help i will be looking at the one's that have been talked about on here.
Used Hunters for yrs, both with the horses and dogs.
But I treated myself to some Le Chameau a few yrs back, would`nt use anything else now, yes they are expensive, but they will last you for yrs and yrs.
Just looked at "thebestinthe county "site.... gosh that is a good price, I paid over 200 for mine.
