We couldn't exist without wellies in the winter here. We're in and out of the Wealden clag several times a day: we just wouldn't have the time to put on and take off lace-up boots every time we wanted to go out.
Le Chameau Chasseur's, leather lined with fitted calf - hellish expensive but without doubt the most comfortable and hardwearing wellies I have ever had - I shoot and fish in them for just about half of the year every year. None of that flapping about round your shins or the irritating rattle of buckles that I usually associate with hunters as they never seemed to stay done up for more than five paces after you put them on!
I live in wellies - the Peak District is a sea of mud at least 8 months a year - but just because they're practical doesn't mean they can't be stylish ...
I wear wellies when camping down on the beach just for ease of wandering in and out of the rockpools gathering stuff and washing stuff in the shallows. When i camped in the snow last year i thought it was a genius idea to wear my snowboarding booths but after 10 minutes of walking i realise that although my feet were dry and roasting i was gathering blisters very quickly. Just stick to walking boots and gaiters now if it's wet.
I bought a pair of wellies for £8-50 from Ernest Does (an agricultural sales shop). I also bought some fetching red boot liners for insulation. Just the job and I can stomp about the woods for a day but no more. No good for serious walks.
