Wellington Boots Alternative

[Lazy Sod]

I've hardly worn wellies for probably 15 years or so, preferring rigger boots, and latterly, dealer boots. Thinking that I could use some wellies ocasionally, I bought some. The trouble is that I can't get them on because of my swollen ankles. My doctor has told me that, in my case, the condition can't be improved much.

What's the collective's opinion? Whatever I have, they have to pull or slip on and be as waterproof as possible.
