I am planning to train and compete the new fifi in the sport of Working Trials. Now this involves a great deal of time working, training and competing in muddy fields, ditches, and various other delights of the country.

I pondered what footware I would use

My Wellies - too sweaty, foot unhealthy and unsupportive for this kind of use.

My Magnum boots, good support, waterproof to a point but a bit short for the odd ditch, mud would get up my trousers, thought about buying gaiters but decided they would be ok for dryer days

So I have purchased a pair of rigger boots. I have shunned them in the past as they always look awful, but I found these.

They look damn good on, They are comfortable (tight at first but breaking them in now) they are waterproof (stood in the thames to fish the dog out) they clean up well, and I can tuck my trousers in them to keep clean.
