I too have Aigle Parcours.... however, whilst I love mine in winter and they are in their fourth year and are still in very good condition with daily use, I hate them in summer. They are great for keeping your feet warm, but in summer I just get too hot in them and have to wear something else, so I wouldn't rate them as an all year round welly.
The other thing is I find they have much better grip than many others I have had over the years, but just bear in mind how thick they are if you want a pair to last all year round...
I too would be very interested to hear from those who have the ones which keep you cool in summer as well as warm in winter.

Aigle parcours iso
regards mick
The differences are
The Parcours boot, made from high quality rubber, is an ideal boot for walking long distances or wearing continually. Lined with a polyester jersey lining with sanitized protection, which is washable and fast drying, the Cambrelle insole enables excellent absorption of perspiration and is soft to the touch. The superb ‘hiking boot’ sole offers comfort and stability.
The handmade Parcours Vario is based upon the Parcours boot but has the added advantage of the waterproof gusset, which is neatly adjustable for a comfortable calf fitting with a locking buckle strap. The Parcours Vario will accommodate nearly all calf sizes and with the bi-density rubber sole using hiking boot technology it offers a very comfortable boot.
Parcours ISO! Lined throughout with 4.5mm neoprene as well as a 2mm thick polypropylene insole and an insert sole in 6mm insulating felt, the Parcours ISO is the warmest boot that we sell and is supremely comfortable. With all the advantages of the waterproof gusset and buckle strap to fit nearly all calf sizes and the superb bi-density walking boot sole, the Parcours ISO is an excellent choice for those of us with cold feet who need to wear wellingtons!
Parcours Vario Outlast! Hand made from the finest natural rubber and offering a waterproof gusset with locking strap to fit nearly all calf sizes, the Parcours Vario Outlast is lined throughout with the superb ‘NASA-developed’ Outlast lining. This will absorb excess heat from your foot and calf, store it in the lining and restore it if you need it. This thermoregulated protection is combined with the superb shock absorbent, non-skid sole based on a hiking boot and offers the ultimate in comfort.

Had Aigels,Muck boots and Grubs are my new ones,Aigels are a tad warmer if stood around when very cold but you pay for the name in my opinion,Mucks are good but the soles let them down by being slippy,Grubs are the same as Mucks but with a vibram sole>A good wellie,they are getting more and more expensive though,they are popular for good reason and I think they are testing the market,but for half the price of Aigles,Aigles are not twice as good.Its only neoprene and rubber glued together after all.
