Grubs Ptarmigan boots

[cavemanmike]

A friend of mine has a pair of grub and swears by them, I prefer my bestard as there a bit more flexible as the grub look and feel a bit stiff for my liking

. But to be fair if you're that bothered about your feet being wet....maybe rock climbing is more of a suited sport?

Yer kidding right?    River crossings, getting caught out in 'orrible storms with water running down my arms into, then out of, my rock boots, the Scottish bogs that make river crossings seem dry, and when the sun does shine, feet wet with sweat.

Glad to have just about left all that behind.

The only sport I do that I never get wet feet in is WW open canoe: I wear a dry suit )

I was just researching the same topic and came across this. The wetsuit material would be destroyed by minewater (as my wetsuit has been). The Etche canyoning jobs from Starless look like the real deal. I have a set of dunlop purofort wellies with drain holes for wet trips and my work wellies (the same) with no holes for dry trips. The steel toecaps thing is an addictive safe feeling. I'd feel naked without them. Perhaps nanny state is gradually rotting my brain!

The sort of trip I use an oversuit for would be the sort of trip I use these for. Interesting. Keep me posted.
