Review of the Men's Aigle Parcours 2 ISO Open Wellies
Cost: £249.95
Tried & tested by Toby, here's his review of the Aigle Parcous 2 ISO Open Wellington Boots
Toby loves exploring the countryside and taking long walks with his young daughter and dog. Often finding himself straying from the beaten track, Toby needed a men's wellington boot that was comfortable to wear all day long.
Initial thoughts on the product
A really premium welly that looks like they would be capable of handling all different terrains with ease.
Likes
The Aigle Parcour boots are unbelievably comfortable. They ooze quality and are rugged whilst remaining stylish. The natural rubber is flexible making them extremely comfortable to wear and reduces rubbing when bending your knees. Despite their flexibility, they are designed with structural integrity which provides support around your ankles. They are well built and durable allowing me to walk long distances without feeling any fatigue in my feet. The boots also benefit from easy zip access making them easy to put on and take off - a great welly for those with mobility or joint issues.
Dislikes
The only downside is the high price point, though they’re well worth the investment for anyone seeking quality and longevity in a wellington boot.
What size did you receive, how does it fit and was it true to size?
I received a Size 11, sizing up to accommodate thick socks, though, in hindsight, this wasn’t necessary as a Size 10 would have fit perfectly.
Would you recommend the product?
Absolutely. If you're seeking a comfortable, long-lasting pair of wellies, I would highly recommend these. They’re ideal for anyone who wears wellies for extended periods, making them a fantastic gift for men, particularly farmers, agricultural workers, or gardeners.
Would you continue to use the product?
Absolutely! These wellies are essential for our long walks and all gardening work. They are also great for when my wife drags me to the yard to help poo pick... The sole is super grippy allowing me to push the wheelbarrow around with ease, even when the ground is slippery and muddy.
Is the price point fair?
While spending close to £250 on wellies may seem steep, these are easily the best men’s wellies I've worn. Their durability and quality make them a worthy investment that should last for years, so I consider the price fair and good value for money.
Was it comfortable/warm/waterproof?
Yes, the neoprene lining offers excellent insulation meaning you don’t get that cold nip at the end of your toes on frosty days. As they have zips, I was dubious as to how waterproof they would be - but the zip has a inside cover that does not allow water inside the boot. I have been for several long walks and waded through brooks and streams without any seepage whatsoever.
Overall Impression
I cannot recommend Aigle highly enough. If you’re looking to keep your feet warm, dry, and comfortable, these are hands-down the best men’s wellies available.
