Because that's the price everyone sells them at

So they've never been £159.99 ? That's Sports Direct tactics.

ETA
But being serious, Nevisport wouldn't stock them if they were carp.

How can we be certain of that?

I expect they were for the statutory time.

Their reputation as specialists, I'd suggest.

You have to sell at the higher price in a location for at least X days in order to be able to advertise it as a genuine reduction. Can't remember how long X is!

So do you think those boots are worth more than 50 quid and if so how much would you say they are worth?

 

[Bonefish Blues]

I don't know. They won't be a match for the real premium brands, but for fifty squid you get a full leather upper, Vibram sole, and a waterproof membrane. That's great value by any standards.

Vibram sole

Are these vibram soles good grippers? I don't want to be slipping on my arse and looking a right plonker!

I once bought a pair of boots from SD mainly due to the Vibram sole and cheap price.

Worst boots I ever bought, think they were Karrimor

I like a few others buy a lot of Berghaus stuff, though my current walking boots are Brasher's.

 

[Bonefish Blues]

Vibram is the gold standard, but there's not a sole in existence that is good on every surface.

They used to be gold standard, I would put money on they licence their name out now to karrimor and other crappy boot manufacturers.
