New kit! what have you bought?

[kram]

With free burn holes, too. You may have more luck if you get a patch sewn over the damage.. it will catc and rip on bramble otherwise.

When I started I was given a pair of medium Arbortec's that have always been far too small for me, waist fits but the legs too skiny, nearly new with a single 1p sized burn hole.

 

Solidur have type A class 1's for £65 upto £180. Unsure from reading the listing what the difference is. I'm sure the more expensive are more comfortable and a better fit perhaps. The cheaper ones dont have a phone pocket.

I couldnt see any other brand with class 3 but Solidur do them.

 

Andrew's, mine have been durable. Perhaps not the best, but always kept my feet dry.

Whilst back in Blighty I am exploiting the consumables/cheap kit market, had some stuff from Chainsawbars delivered to the MIL house, always fantastic service. 
Then picked up these bargains off fleabay, Andrew Arbpro for £160 and a pair of Meindl Airstream for £180, I’ve never owned a pair of either, they may even see me through to retirement.

The Andrew’s are great boots.  The Meindle are a bit hit and miss these days or so I hear.

 

I have used both, 4 pairs of Airstreams and for the last eight years (since I moved to Norway) I have had 2 pairs of Andrew’s.

 

In need of a new pair now as the mid sole has started to perish a bit.
