Keen Gypsum II Mid Waterproof Boots

American brand Keen are well known for their sandals with the distinctive "toe bumper", but they also make excellent walking boots (with the same distinctive toe bumper, of course). Their wide fit will suit many, and the Gypsums have a good combination of lightness and good resistance to twisting that will pay dividends on the rocky trails and rough ground of places like the Lakes and Snowdonia. The multi-directional lugs on the soles shed mud extremely well and give surprisingly good grip on soggy winter trails. The full grain leather is high quality and is all double stitched. No-messing practical hill country walking boots.
