Boots Needed - Dubarry, Musto, etc - Size 11
Hi Everyone
My Dubarry's split all around where the sole is joined to the upper - totally irreparable...
... so, does anyone have any secondhand size 11 Dubarry's, Musto, etc that they can sell me for a reasonable price?
Or can you suggest a cheaper alternative that will work equally well?
I wondered about riggers boots from Screwfix for about 35 quid...???
Cheers - MGx

I have used these for beach fishing for many years now and have already given away all my £200 "posh" wellies ,these things are amazing ,made of EVA the weight is just above zero ,because they are full of air the insulation is second to none ,downsides are they are not thornproof soles and i only get one winter from a pair if dog walking a couple of miles on hard surfaces every day , you dont need the insoles in so if they fill with water you just tip them out ,i suspect some may start the floating out too sea with your feet in the air story as the bouyancy value is high ,but that surely gives you more chance thanbeing dragged down by traditonal wellies /waders
imo these truly are a revolutionary product of modern technology ,worth a go !

Next time I get to the office I'll be looking at these - cheap enough and look like they'll do the job.
Don't like the farmer type soles as pretty harsh on tubes and decks.

Force four have some nice looking boots at a sensible price too - https://www.force4.co.uk/item/Mainde...iABEgL1jPD_BwE

Firstly, thank you everyone so far EXCEPT Messrs Pikey Dave and GuyC!
Pikey Dave - YOU are a very bad man indeed!
Mr GuyC - you should know better! In any case Meg Ryan is hot - hypothesise from that, Sir! As for Maria Sharapova, well I suppose she is quite big boned.
Anyway, how'd ya expect a girl to pull a trailer up the slipway when her pillock of a boyfriend ran off with the au pair and the Range Rover???

Previously had a Musto leather pair. Lasted for years of abuse before they fell apart.
