I'm pretty much with Skee Tex, depending on conditions/terrain I use their barbel boots (am I allowed to say that?
)most of the year, the moon boots in very cold conditions if no yomping is involved and the field boots in the colder months if I mobile.

Are the ones that you wear like neoprene wellies? As I bought a pair of this type and have been disapointed with them, unlike the other Korum products which I have.

Next time.
The Korum boots were a poor buy, they make your feet sweat like a rapist in a nurses home.

My feet sweat like Billyo in muck boot derwents in cold weather. Neoprene doesn't breath so expect sweaty feet in any muck boot. Still comfy though.

Korum stuff seems pretty good - what was wrong with the boots I was thinking of getting some for the winter ?
In the summer its open toed sandals for me ( No socks I am not that old ) but I now have a sandal tan mark.

i am a SkeeTex convert too.
In the winter it is the SkeeTex fleece lined wellies, spring and autumn its the SkeeTex field boots. During the summer like others it is out with the extremely tatty old trainers.
When on a proper session in the summer, I take along the Green Crocs as they are quick to jump into during the night.

The first pair that I tried on in the shop the neoprene liner split, they are not particularly comfortable, the inner liners ruck up under the soles of your feet when you walk and they make your feet sweat with or without thin socks. I wish that I had bought a pair of those Muckboots that Matt recommended as I have heard some good things about them.

I bought a pair of Muckboot Tays and they are very comfortable. I use them every day for walking my dog. On the bank I tend to wear waders anyway as my local river is a veritable jungle of nettles but I'm considering using the Muckboots. Tays have a great sole with plenty of grip but have heard they suffer on very grassy banks.
