Wellies again...

I have a pair of chemical boots Egoli Inyati or something, which look identical to the ankle boots on the web page of Wayne Safety. The tread is very grippy possibly because it's so deep, the only snags are the shar edge to the rubber round the ankle and the eyelets being rubber get sawn through by the laces after about 10 trips. Now I know they do wellies I'll probably buy some.
Yes they are the same as Wayne Safety boots

Well, I went to Hay today and popped into Hay and Brecon Farmers and they didn't have any there or in their other branches. It seemed they'd never heard of Wayne Safety.

That's because they're not labelled as Wayne Safety, but Inyati.

(The scruffs wellies look better or my local had tuff grits)

Not that either of my local stores had them in my size...

Don't like steel toe caps as they rub on your big toe and get jammed in crevices. It's easier to wangle your foot out of a constriction if you've not got toe caps.

Fully agree. Steelers are a pita in caves.
