Are you trying to promote this website?

If their web pages is anything to go by, no. What's wrong with
bare feet, anyway?

They may be all right for you, but with my luck I'd get grit in them
from day 1.

Sam.

p.s. very smart, though.

Topless sandals, bare feet, whatever next! Essential footwear for any
serious gardening (particularly on clay) is a pair of 3/4 knee Argyle
wellies.

Are you serious or is this an advert? No, they do not appear to be
functional for wear whilst gardening.

Most people use a spade, but I am sure you know best!

Are yours the waders or the green pair?


Janet

Thought your site much more informative, might even get a pair of the
ordinary ones myself . Thanks Bob!

I bought the cheap black builders type ones, no point in having "showy"
green ones on the allotments. Sue has green ones though. :-)
I have in the past ruined two pairs of expensive green Hunters by using them
for digging, they haven't got the steel midsole so the spade cuts right
through them eventually which is also rather painful if it gives all of a
sudden. :-(

:-) Splutter...

But you aren't suggesting digging with a spade in bare feet surely.

Well, I do - though only in soft ground.

One hopes not - digging in the soil is more productive and less painful.

Some of those are tempting, especially the thermal ones. It's no
problem keeping warm when I'm digging, but my feet freeze if I'm just
out feeding the animals on a cold morning (especially if it's bin day
and I have to make a couple of trips up the drive with the rubbish,
too). Unfortunately there seem to be very few pairs of wellies that
fit over my calves, so buying from a website isn't practical

Not sure what sort of fish you'd be worried about if you wanted steel-
toed waders, mind...
