I'm looking for some decent comfortable wellies for beating and shooting, so they need to be comfy, warm, durable and preferably not costing the earth.
I've been looking about and aigles and muck boots are taking my fancy, muck boots mainly cause of price
Any ideas?
I've been wearing aigles for the last couple of seasons and they're comfortable and are wearing well ( I wear them a lot ) .
MVF are reasonable on price if your near one !

i agree. my OH has been through a pair of Chameaus and a pair of hunters in the time i've just had the 1 pair of Aigles & they're still good as new.

They do keep your feet incredibly warm though, something to consider! I have super long legs so I buy the tall riding style.
A friend of mine got given a pair of muckboots for Xmas and they ripped the first time they walked the dog outside in a grassy field and muckboots have been so difficult to contact and get replaced!
Too many Springers, and Roxie the black cocker.

Yup! I have a pair of Aigles that have lasted me ages ... But only because they are so damned uncomfortable I only wear them if there is no option! Much prefer Le Chameau, have had Hunters, Barbours, Le C and Aigle, not found much difference between them as to longevity, comfort varies between boots never mind makes. I don't think you can compare boots as people walk differently, weight more or less and walk on different types of ground all of which factors influence the length of time the boots last.
In life, it is important to know when to stop arguing with people and simply let them be wrong.
Aigles always and forever! I love them, and I have ridiculous knackered ankles which no other wellies are supportive enough for. Wore my mate's muckboots once and they felt dead weird due to the clingy elasticated leg bit, a bit too insulating for me!
