Really good value, I rarely have to replace the laces although I do save the laces from the previous years pair. The only thing I would say is that you need to stay on top of re-proofing them, as I don't think they're going to be forgiving if you don't look after them, but that's like anything made of natural materials I suppose. My walk covered up and down several steps in the forest and uneven ground, the soles are very sturdy and I felt safe walking down hill, the tag says they are Dynagrip.Regular proofing will treat the leather so moisture does not get into the boots, keep the leather from drying and cracking as well as pro long the life of the boots. The main thing to remember is they should be comfortable so that your foot is held in a good secure position so there is little movement but not so much that they are pinching or uncomfortable. I am not sure how waterproof they are but will do a follow up review in a few months after I've tested them.

A timeless classic, the Mendip 3 Boots in the Chocolate colourway from Karrimor are traditional-look women's hiking boots, packed with modern technology to ensure optimum comfort and grip on the trails. A tough, lightweight phylon midsole absorbs lumps and bumps on uneven terrain, whilst the Dynagrip outsole provides confidence boosting grip and traction in all conditions. However, the laces are a bit too short, especially for arthritic fingers and difficult to pull tight (they are stretching the more I am using them but not by much); the ankle part of the boot is quite firm. The other option is as your boots are unlaced push your foot right to the font, If you can get a finger down the back this is a good indication they are the correct length.

Time will tell if they continue to be waterproof, my last pair were Merrill's and although they were Gore-Tex, the waterproofing did not last long.If the outer fabric is absorb ing water this reduces the breathability and your feet will feel clamy and wet giving the impression of leaking.
