Definitely Suretred.
They have good grip and seem to last longer against abrasion. I get through about two pairs a year as most ofmy caving is in very aggresive (mineralised) caves and Suretred last the longest.
I find that there is a sweet spot with wellies when they are worn enough to get a split on the side, which aids draining, but not too worn out when they loose all thier stiffness and I end up twisting my ankles through lack of support.
I find other wellies wear through before this point and the toe-cap falls out but then you use these for marking passages in Mendip dont you? esp. Swildons?
I have got Suretred from Eyres in Brough, Derbyshire for £17 but it was a few years ago.

P.S. I've had to retype this (again) since all you have to do with this software is move the mouse to make an edit in the text and the whole thing disappears - very annoying. Hence if there's a typographical error I'm not going to alter it and you'll have to forgive my spelling. I'm going to submit this before it gets zapped!
I often write my replies in word then cut and paste into the reply box. I do this for two reasons, firstly I rely too much on the spell checker
and secondly I dont not trust t'internet
