Advantages: My feet are in love with these boots Disadvantages: They're not cheap
One year without realising what I was letting myself into, I promised my husband a new pair of walking boots for his birthday. I was expecting to pay £60-£70 but bless him, he fell in love with a pair of BrasherSupalites and I didn't have the heart to say no. With a 10% discount they cost me £108 and he assured me they were worth every penny.
Bad Boot History
****************
At this stage I'd been fighting the need to buy proper boots. As a student I studied geology and spent a lot of wet miserable weeks plodding over mountains with wet feet. In my book, proper boots weighed a tonne and took a lot of looking after. We used to do the most bizarre things to make them fit and to soften the leather - sitting with your boots on in bowls of hot water, putting lots of Nikwax onto the wet boots so the nasty stuff got sucked into the pores ...
Advantages: Kept feet Dry Disadvantages: Dont last and poorly manafactured
I have been extremely disappointed with my Gortex Hillmaster walking boots.
I am now on my third pair, the first 2 pairs had to be replaced because the ankle supports split,
Now the third have completely worn down on the heels exposing the soft spongy substance underneath.
This has happened in just over 1 year despite most of my walking being done on soft ground, I have nothing unusual about my walking style and am not overweight.
These boots are not of the quality they once were renowned for and at the price they are, you would expect something better. I will never buy a pair of these boots again as in my opinion they most certainly don?t represent good value for money.
I have purchased boots in the past that have cost about one quarter of the cost yet they have lasted a least four times as long. ...
Advantages: Comfy, Last long, easy to clean Disadvantages: Dont look as good as other boots, removable studs can be a disadvantage as can be lost easily.
In my own opinion these football boots are great for durability, style isn't everything but the comfort in these boots was great.I never got one blister or sore feet after a game which is good. From my point of view there great value for money so shop around on-line as prices vary. They have removable studs and are easy to clean, the leather is good and comfy so a real buy for football players.The price varies from £62.99 - £119.99, so a lot cheaper than other big brands, Big advantage as they last for years, the leather is amazing for durability, lightness for players quick on there feet and fantastic for hitting the ball.A lot of big football players wear these boots so its proven to be a hit with football stars as well, all in all great buy! ...
