I have owned a pair of karrimor ksb walking boots for about 4 years now. Mine are a sandy colour and will no doubt have been superceded by a new model! They are very minimalist in their design and not at all flashy, which I like. I use them maybe 6 or 7 times a year and they are still holding up well.
I use them for hill walking in the spring to autumn in Scotland. As they are fabric boots you might expect them to let water in however I have never had any problems with this. I don't tent to go walking in extreme conditions, but them I have set out on glorious summer days and been caught out by thunder storms. My feet have always stayed dry, even when splashing through puddles.
I find these boots quite narrow, which suits my feet, but this may not be suitable for all. They are very cushioned on the inside, even 4 years on and offer good ankle support.
I'm trying to be unbiased, but I cannot really think of anything bad to say about them at all! The only slightly negative point is that being fabric, when they get muddy it takes a abit longer to clean them properly whereas leather boots can be cleaned in a matter of seconds. I always look after my equipment though and if you treat them properly before you go and clean them once your back then you won't go wrong.
