Peter Storm Men's Caldbeck Waterproof Walking Boots

Brilliant budget boots – I know, I walk 2000+ miles a year, and I usually have three pairs of boots in rotation at any time. I mostly buy boots that are double the price, and I was VERY pleasantly surprised by these. Buy these boots if you need a comfortable waterproof boot for day-to-day dog walking or weekend hikes. Upgrade the insoles and apply lots of dubbin. They will be comfortable, waterproof, and relatively long-lived. I am a wide size 11 and the fit is excellent.

I bought these for summer walks in the Peak District. I found them rather large for the stated size so took to wearing 2 pairs of socks with them. After half a dozen walks they became porous when walking through wet grass. The leather absorbed a lot of water so took a long time to dry. The sole, which has very little depth of grip, rapidly wore down. Finally, after about 2 years the uppers started to detach around the welt so water floods in whenever I step into a puddle.
I could not recommend these to anyone.

I usually buy Brasher boots and have always been impressed by their lightweight and comfort. In my experience the leather cracks after about six months and they can leak in very wet conditions after about a year/1000 miles they start to give up the ghost and so for a change I thought I'd try a 'budget' pair of boots. The Peter Storm Caldbecks are about half the price of the equivalent Brasher boots and my impression (after walking approx 30 miles in them) is that they're excellent. It's early days yet but they seem robust, waterproof and they're commendably light in weight. My gut feeling is that they are going to last well and I might now be a convert to 'budget' boots, something I never thought would happen. My feet are quite broad and so the slighter wider fit is also a real bonus.

Excellent walking boot - totally waterproof - well worth the money even better with discount!!

Bought as a present. Very pleased.

Excellent value. Bought in a sale so even better

Very comfortable and good looking pair of boots
Just the job !

Ordered placed 22nd November, to date Boots still not recieved despite Hermes sending numerous emails claiming they are on their way. I have queried this with Blacks who have been very helpful. This issue still unresolved ☹☹

Well made for use in wet weather but not the most comfortable. For the price though I cannot complain.

Early days but the main reason i purchased these boots was for the waterproof property. Which they appear to be.

Got in the sale extra discount for DofE
Son used them in heavy rain for walks and since again on coastal walks in rain. Kept feet very dry and very comfy. No rubbing.
Will need proper care due to nature of leather. Well worth the money

Only had them for a short while, so early days...but quality looking and sturdily built. Deep, tough looking soles so hopeful.

Very comfortable boots

Bought them summer 2020 for walking the dogs. Waterproof, comfortable and sturdy. It's now May 2021 and having worn them EVERY day since purchase, the heels are wearing down. Only used them once for a 12 mile proper fell walk, and they kept my feet warm and dry.

Very sturdy, good fit but the laces don’t stay tied unless you tie a second bow on top of the first one. I wish the laces were longer as they won’t go round all the hooks.

Boots good some of the metal hooks at the top broke both boots still usable but otherwise it would have been 5 stars

Fit and comfort good esp wide fit for going down hill.Would have given it 5 stars if the waterproof lining was breathableAfter 2 hours on the hill my feet were overheating and extremely sweaty not sure how often i will use them if weather is warm.

Excellent foot ware and fit much better

Top class boots good value

Very comfortable, really happy with them, well worth the money
