Muck in boots

[Heathland]

There's a lot of you guys buying/wearing dealer boots for work out there,so i thought i would give them a go,but i've a problem with them.You see i wear short's in the summer months,when i'm not in the workshop wearing overalls and these type of boots seem to collected all the crap going,just aswell they slip off easy.
So is there anything out there to stop this cause my boots have more muck on the inside than out.
Cheers

Wear lace ups.

In oz you get tubes of material about five inches long which are elasticated either end.

These "cuffs" fit round your boot tops and your leg to stop all the crap falling into yer boot.

No idea what they're called or where to get them over here, but they're great!!!

Thanks for all the help so far,have'nt seen high heel steel toe caps yet,then again at 6'4" i don't need jacking any higher.

Used to be a single chap at the auction mart with inner tube slid down his wellies,he said he pulled it up over the top of his wellies to stop straw going down them,it was easier than hovering up.

I always preferred barefoot, flip flops get too slippy when they are wet, spend more time trying to keep my feet in them

When I was in Oz, some of the lads wore gaiters which are as Dr Dunc described, they look just the same as the ones you get here for shooting etc but shorter. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Mountain-Wa...id=1405187555&sr=8-12&keywords=hiking+gaiters

sell them regularly in Aldi, when they have walking gear in, I use the long length one in the wet, £4.99 a pair, really hard wearing.

i tried bare foot but i have bad feet and need extra insoles in all my wellies so i just put up with the skidding about , its a very nice feeling squishing a fresh turd through your toes in the collecting yard

I used Sock Savers, as described above. One of Australia's greater inventions!
