£10 Dunlops are okay, but aren't comfortable for standing around in all day.
Dunlops here. Fine for an hour or two with the dog.
Ive just spent a week at GDSF up to my knees in mud and the dunlops performed very well.

I got a pair of these last winter. Light, warm and comfy enough to spend all day in.

Muckboots from a tack shop or country store.

Warm, comfortable, easy to take off, not for show-offs.
Just this.
Indeed.
Except they are now called Grub, not Muck.

Hunters are rubbish at any price - don't bother.

Le Chameau are the best premium brand, but you will need to push the budget up to £95 for their entry level boot. My 'Chasseur's' are now up to £340 retail, which even I have to admit is silly money.

Check out Seeland's 'Allround' boot at around £70. A great price given the name. Failing that, Aigle are a quality product and whilst you can pay a lot for a top pair, they do come in under £100. I'd probably go down the Aigle or Seeland route if my Chameau's ever gave up the ghost.... which they wont.

I believe Grub are a different brand. Although they have similar styling to Muck boots.

Fair enough. That isn't what our local welly shop said, but it does look like your right. Must just be that they changed supplier, but I wonder why they wouldn't just stock both?

I've noticed that Muck boots have gradually been notching up the prices in recent years. Perhaps cashing in on the fad for wearing brands and such like that so many go in for these days. If the Grub's are less expensive perhaps they will likely be the better buy.

Or the margins are better, or Grub are not as widely sold so price pressures are not so much of an issue.
