    think the professional are steel toe cap

    always got the plus with the last few years, v light but they are easy to split/puncture

    switched to bekina...much better

    my Bekinas with steel toecaps cracked within a year where the big toe meets the foot
    the place where theres maximum movement I suppose
    Co op took them back as they are almost new but heard nothing since
    must ring them tomorrow
    In the mean time I went back to Purofort steel toes

    No they both come with a steel toe version so can't see what the real difference is ?

    Some of the Dunlop wellies can be very heavy.

    I've a light pair of green Bekina and I always feel socks wet after them , both of them not leaking but it's like they are cold or sweat more than heavier wellies I wear (marine type - very slippy on land but warm)

    take the insole out at the end of the day and let it dry...had the same feeling and also didn't wear socks as warm
