sniperkona Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 What a bargain those X3M1 wellys are, a fraction of the price of those posh french ones lol. £29.99 for neo welys!!!!! Cant complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tikka 223 Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 Bought a pair myself and thought the same , but a few months down the line i will be buying another pair or hunter originals . the wieght of the x3m1 is a ball ache when walking and to warm , the hunters are nice light and flexible . For Pigeon shooting in the winter there fine but for a walk about i hate them . Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingzy Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 Bought a set of these last year. They lasted about 6 weeks and started leaking. Got another set sent through, after about 3 weeks they started leaking. The rubber creased and cracked across the top of the foot. Same thing happened to my mate. Shame really as they were v comfy. Sportsman reconned they were a bad batch, I wouldn't go near again!! J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rooster Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 I am very happy with the Avon muckboots i bought a few months ago, light, comfortable and you can roll them down if it gets too warm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auquhollie Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 False economy mate, There shite thats why they are cheap. They will start to crack and end up leaking in no time at all. Pay out that little bit more and buy the once. Ive had a set of "those posh french ones" for the past 5 years and there still going strong. When you think i payed £100 5 years ago it works out cheaper than the X3M1 because mine have lasted 5 seasons and will probably last another few as well. Like i say false economy.

ejg223 Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 Since years le chameau, without any snazy lining. It's not cold here. The new trackers are much better fitting than the previous model. What I like is that the calf fits nice and tight, no twigs slip in. Even water takes ages till it gets in through the top. I normally need a pair a year, the brambles do tear them apart after a while. edi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gareth Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 Le Chameau Vierzonord for me too, bought mine 6 years ago and wear them for beating, stalking when its wet the odd bit of herbicide spraying! Still look pretty new, not cracked or perishing. Ever so comfortable, can beat in them all day no problem and drive in them too. Gone up about £30 since I got mine though!
