'BECAME UNCOMFORTABLE AND DIDN'T STAND THE TEST OF TIME'

Strengths:
warm

Weaknesses:
The left boot became uncomfortable after a couple of months wear and both boots later developed cracks in the sides which became holes.

Overall:
I tend to wear trainers unless it is particularly cold or muddy but having only used my Lunkers a moderate amount still had to throw them away after only a year. Replaced them with Skeetex field boots which I've now had for longer and used more than the Lunkers and they remain in excellent condition.

'CUMBERSOME'

Strengths:
Very warm if just lounging around.

Weaknesses:
Not so good for walking any distance or stalking the river banks. A real chore when walking across muddy fields.

Overall:
Mine are gathering dust now and am looking at the Skee Tex range of field boots.

'THEY DON'T LAST'

Strengths:
Warm, comfy, even OK for walking.

Weaknesses:
Full of holes - the rubber is cheap and has cracked on both feet due to constant flexing.

Overall:
OK if you replace them each year. They won't last you more than that.
I liked them too!

'GOOD QUALITY BOOT !'

Strengths:
I have had a pair of these boots for a couple of months now and find them to be extremely warm and comfortable, on one trip it rained non stop but my feet stayed dry and warm. They have a good tread on the sole and the speed lace tying eyes are a good idea as they are quite a tall boot also the removable linings can be worn in your bivvy inside a pair of slippers, toasty !!

Weaknesses:
The only real drawback with these boots is that they are a bit on the bulky side and you know you are wearing them when walking etc, but once at your swim and settled your feet stay nice and warm.

Overall:
One of the best boots you can buy for under £50 but shop around as I managed to get these for £39.99 and not the £50 RRP !

'DISAPPOINTING'

Strengths:
Looked good and kept feet warm to start with.

Weaknesses:
Clumsy to lace, sole of one cracked after a couple of months meaning they leaked even walking across grassy fields. Then relegated to wearing them on the boat, sides wore through after a couple of months of this.

Overall:
Best avoided, by comparism my last pair of Skeeters lasted 10 years.

'NOT BAD'

Strengths:
Warm and comfortable

Weaknesses:
Not good for long walks and not waterproof

Overall:
I agree with the editors review. They're OK for short walks and for keeping your feet warm and that's all I bought them for, so I'm happy with them

'HEAVY AND POORLY MADE'

Strengths:
Initially they did keep my feet warm.

Weaknesses:
After 3 years they have developed cracks which leak. Not good for walking.

Overall:
If you don't do a lot of walking these boots will suit you.
