Yay! Magnums rock but they're not waterproof. Liz the big boss has given me a couple of sets and they are just the ticket. Support and comfort. I think I did a T for 5 days in a kilt where the closest I got to sleeping in my sleeping bag was collapsed on the tent floor. My magnums didn't get taken off for the whole time and my feet never complained at all. Not like my household when I finally did take them off :)

The Magnums I got are waterproof too (or supposed to be I hope) as leather is treated with "ion mask" apparently. Used them in the snow and they seemed to be ok but lets se how they stand up to mud!

I just wear the Scorpions, dessie ones and black ones as Her Majesty gave me them for free. The dessie ones get wet but the black ones fare better but with thick merino socks it matters not if you get wet feet anyways.They are dead comfy from the first use but make sure you wear them quite a lot before taking a fest in wearing them, even if it's just the odd walk and round the house. I loves them.

I got Elite force 8.0 WPI. Have sent scrubbertheman a link to where I got them if interested as that site seems to have job lots going cheap. I didn't get Panthers as I think from memory they had a side zip. These ones didn't seem to need breaking in either. I got them in October and did 5 x 2 hour walks in the snow over New Year with no problem.

My mate who recommended Magnums is ex RAF and he wears basic issue and polishes up and has no problems either although he says they need breaking in.
