I just asked my Dom for some, they were ordered and came soon after. These were my second pair after the first ones wore out. I find them great in the snow but I was advised that I wasn't allowed to drive in them!!! Not sure if this is true or not.

Used RM wellies all through the snow last year. No problems, just need to wear two pairs of socks to keep your feet warm.

I'm not sure if RM still supply wellies but we have just been advised that no one is to wear wellies since someone slipped over while wearing them this week and broke their ankle.
