5 of the best women’s wellies to walk out in the snow and rain

25 January 2021

From brisk lunchtime strolls to long weekend rambles, walking has become not just a hobby, but a way of life for many of us during the pandemic.

For some, ambling around the local park alone is a way of escaping a hectic household. For others, a socially-distanced saunter and chat with a friend provides some much-needed company.

Whatever the reason, now more than ever, it’s important not to let the elements get in the way of your walks, which is why a pair of wellington boots is a must during the rainiest months and now the snow has arrived.

From classic black to statement-making designs, here’s our pick of five of the best wellies on the high street.
