Agree on dunlops, forum member put me onto em , more comfortable for my duck feet than skellerups
Will I hunt with em , yes I do , within 200m of vehicle
M8 buy proper boots , or end up with flippers like I got , wider than they long

There are threads and threads on Buller gumboots for hunting. Had supply issues so changed to leather which have advanced a lot since the dsys of John Bulls, Anson D rings and Paraflex.

I thought you guys put the sheeps back legs down your gumboots to stop them getting away...
