KarrimorMen's Bodmin Weathertite Hiking Boots

These shoes are no doubt for older people, me being one of them. They are clunky, wide and not very fashionable.However, they are robust, comfortable, stable on uneven ground and very good value.You don't want to to undertake a 100 mile walk, but for dog walking and general rambling they are perfect.

Bought these a little under a year ago at time of review and they're still in near new condition, they get worn most days of the week as I'm a dog walker, and the only real change from when I bought them is the laces are starting to get a little frayed at the ends. These shoes are both nice and cool in the summer but also keep me warm during winter, stay lovely and dry inside when it rains or when walking through mud or shallow water, and are very comfortable for longer walks. I'd say the sizing is accurate, if you're worried about it I'd suggest ordering half a size up, I got size 11 (usually a size 10.5) and I have room to move around but they're tight enough to not slip around. Overall would definitely recommend these to anyone looking for some good hiking shoes!

Very good value for the price. Pleasantly surprised by the quality and comfort. The size 12’s 1 ordered were a good fit. Would recommend to anyone that wants a good pair of walking shoes.So far have proved waterproof in light to medium rain. Rugged treads with good grip.

I love these shoes, and buy them on a regular basis. I do ***a huge amount*** of general purpose walking and live in these shoes day in, day out, all year. Whilst the supplied insoles are good, I choose to replace them with arch-support insoles, which I replace every few months, but the shoes themselves last me around 4 years a pair, however I have a pair I wear day in day out as my 'iniversal' shoes and I have another pair I keep as 'best-occasion' shoes, and then I switch them to general use and buy a new 'best-occasion' pair when the generals have passed their 'walk-by' date. I do not buy or wear cheap rubbish footwear, I only have one pair of feet.....plus knees and hips, and comfy supportive footwear is absolutely essential. I don't ever deliberately stand in water, or wade through Lake District bogs, but from my experience of *rain* I've certainly not got wet feet whilst wearing these in, I'm going to say, certainly the first two years of wearing them. Like all this type of construction where, in very simple terms, you have an inner and an outer shell, but in-between the two is a sort of 'plastic bag sewn in, they *are* waterproof for a period of time, but eventually the creasing and uncreasing of that (unseen) 'plastic bag' can (but not always) cause a breach.You can buy a rubbish pair of shoes for 15 - 20£, they'll be rubbish when you buy them and they'll be rubbish all the way until you give up on them 6-months to 1year later, and you'll likely have uncomfortable feet for this period of time too.I keep buying them because they give me excellent service, comfort and value. I take a size 8 (EU42) and that size in this shoe is perfect for me

The last pair of these I had lasted me 2 years, so I knew I was going to be a repeat buyer. Despite the increased price, the comfort and quality is worth it to me. Covering up to 20,000 steps a day at work I knew I needed something comfortable and hard wearing and I’m pleased to say these fit the bill. The insoles are a bit thin though and do tend to wear away prematurely after a few months, but as per my last pair I intend to replace these anyway. The laces also sometimes snap on the metal eyelets too, so I’ll keep a pair handy just in case.I usually take a size 10 in trainers so these are true to size for me, i wear thick work socks with them too. I don’t get much opportunity to test the waterproof claims so cannot comment on that aspect. Otherwise, highly recommended for comfortable work footwear that does not require a steel toe cap or walking duties.

Good quality and true to size, very comfortable.

I find these trainers light and comfortable with no issues,I walk miles every day grass cutting and they don’t hurt at all,fair price for a decent trainer and would buy again as and when required.i bought size 9.5 and usually wear size 9
