Well, it’s been a sad day. I feel that a part off me has been taken away, I am now incomplete. Through highs and lows, thick and thin, wooded valley and open moor and more abuse than anything should ever take there was never a moment of objection or complaint. But now they have gone. Yes, good people, my Karrimor boots have finally passed.
I must admit that these have probably been the best pair of boots I have ever had. They have been comfortable, waterproof and very hardwearing considering that they have been my only footware for the best part of eighteen months apart from the occasional steel toe cap job (and the obligatory black shiny wedding/funeral thingies that have fortunately been rare this past year). I have literally lived in these boots. I originally got them as I needed something a bit more supportive as my old favourite boots were not proving very beneficial for the old back problems. As soon as I started wearing the Karrimors the back felt somewhat better as my posture changed completely.
There have been some bad comments on here about Karrimor boots in recent times but I can only say that my experience of them has been excellent and only time will tell whether the replacement ones will be as good.
Rest well my dear old friends.
