Hi Chris, I use Decoy boots from Grisports.com mine are an 11 I think they go up to 12, not super upmarket like harlika but they do me well, and I use seeland hawker shell trousers which I find really good

I just bought new Lundhags professional 2’s which are awesome. But you’ll get a million and one answers, one common one will probably be avoid the Harkila boots, generally very poor quality and bad reputation well earned....

Avoid harkila, check if hanwag do your size, if not, altberg should.

I’m a size 12 and I bought a pair of Meindl Douvre Pro (iirc that’s the name) boots about 18months/2years ago and have done lots of stalking in them in varying terrain. Very supportive but not overly heavy or cumbersome. Would highly recommend.

For boots I go to Footwear - British Military Surplus and buy 'Grade 1 Used' which in most cases is actually brand-new and still in the original packaging.
Used Army surplus clothing is also my choice for most outdoor wear when stalking - the Goretex deals on the above site are great. But be aware not Permissions are suitable for Camo clothing - I find the Deerhunter Brand a good compromise between price and quality, and most gear is available in plain greens/brown as well as in Camo.

You can’t go far wrong with meindl boots , just not sure if they go that size ,leggings go for sealand or harkila.
