I had some Aigles Awful things. Crucified my ankles and Achilles. I am a dairy farmer and so spend around 60-70 hours a week in wellies. I have tried all sorts Aigles, Barbours, Le Chameau, muck boots etc but for grip and wear nothing beats a pair of Nora Dolomites. I put a pair of Cush n Step insoles in them which makes them really comfy to walk in. If it is cold I wear 2 pairs socks. You can wash the insides out and dry them out with a piece of paper and wear them straight away. They are not trendy or cool and cost around £30 so if you do cut them on barbed wired or the like it's not the end of the world.
