Also from Go Outdoors - try the Hanwag boots. I tried the Meindl's there because I always had the Meindl chainsaw boots which were brilliant, but the Hanwags were more comfy and are also of German build quality. Apparently all our military and police boots are made by them.

Brashers all day long, mine get proper abused, two years now, still water tight, still comfy and do on average five hours walking in rough woodland with them on a weekend, as well as day to day used cos i hate trainers, these are the best boots in the world IMO, love em.

I used Brashers for surveying & general wear when not requiring protection at work.

Although comfy, mine only lasted 6 months before the soul started talking.

Can anyone recommend some good boots?

 

I was thinking of getting these Meindl Burma Goretex - anyone have them?

 

 

I have two pairs of these boots and can highly recommend them,still got my first pair and their about 7 years old, they look rough but still very comfy:thumbup1:

My advice is to go for all leather one peice uppers and a boot with replaceable Vibram soles. If you look after the leather it will last for ever. I have a pair of Zamberlan hiking boots that are 13 years old and still have loads of life left in them.

 

I also have a pair of boreal boots which are 10 years old. I have put loads of miles on these and the soles just dont seem to wear. I was walking on Dartmoor in them 2 days ago and they are still waterproof.
