I don't think they are breathable, which means your feet will sweat and then get cold...not good!
Always spend the money and buy good boots and a good bed...if you're not in one, you're in the other  ;D

Ecco shoes are about as good as it gets comfort wise. I invested in a pair of Ecco slippers. They were £80 but oh my god they are comfortable. I wouldn't be without them now.
I just buy cheap waterproof boots for work but I put an expensive insole in. If they leak, they go back. I have a pair I paid £35 for in October that are still going strong, but I had to return a pair of Magnum boots after a week because they leaked.

Hi Robbo333, my grandmother used to tell me that when i was younger, but it is so true and good advice.
