In the country, wellies are ALWAYS in fashion I heard some people (in Dublin mainly) were wearing wellies around town. Why? They're uncomfortable, your feet freeze when it's cold and sweat when it's warm and if you're not in a wet field, they're pointless and in a city, you look like a complete twat.

I haven't worn wellies since I was a young 'un. Always in the fashion outside of the Pale. Why would anyone wear them walking around Dublin City, I do not know.

Wellies are only rubber. A needle would go straight through. Better to buy shoes with leather sole if you want to go syringe hopping
