Great British made boots

[Chris the Cat]

A pair of Shepherds boots on their way to me as we speak!
The extraordinary curve ( otherwise known as 'fully sprung'helps with the roll of the foot, good on hills.

Best.

I lived in a pair of these for 6yrs. , wore them daily . Eventually concrete killed them

Six years! Presumably in great comfort, too. How did concrete kill them? I am also intrigued by the hobnailed versions. If you were buying again, would you go for the Vbram Commando sole or the leather hobnailed one and, most importantly, why?

I'm looking for some decent boots at the moment but I think I'm going to need footbeds in them this time. (Must be my age.)

What is the spacing in them like for insoles?

Wearing them for concreting instead of wellies on a regular basios and not looking after them properly. The leather started cracking and they had been resoled a few times too many due to hard digging again on a regular basis.......I'd have another pair
