Hoggs’ FS 365 Field Sport Wellingtons are described as “a high performance field boot suitable for all country activities” offering “abrasion resistance, comfort and durability” but after an estimated just 24 months hours of light wear, mine leaked badly and they refused to replace them.I bought these boots for £72.21 and at that mid-range price from a company which claims to offer quality products and good service, I would give them I expected them to last 4-5 years. Although there is no sign of any damage or punctures and the soles are hardly worn, after just 24 months mostly walking the dog on pasture land, the right boot developed a bad leak that left my foot soaked after ten minutes in wet grass – “high performance” and “durability”? Hardly!At first Hoggs weren’t interested at all but eventually offered 20% discount on a new pair – ie just 5% more than their sale at the time. These boots now cost £89.95, so after lasting far less than would be expected from a budget welly, they want me to shell out another £70-odd and hope a new pair might last a bit longer. Hoggs’ clothing seems fine but their boots should definitely be avoided; after this refusal to stand by their products I certainly won’t be buying from them again.
