That's your opinion and that's fine, but you're wrong. I don't know the model of mine but unless you had leprosy you'd be hard pushed to find better. Their riggers are brilliant too, I had a set that lasted me 2 years and were still useable - only got rid because the padding was getting a bit thin.

Or the fact mine are falling apart too, and their power tools aren't that great either

Yeah my dewalt riggers are still going strong, just find them too heavy and bulky for climbing scaffolding all day carrying boxes of brick slip! Im stuck, might go in screw fix etc and try a few on, just wanted some reccomendations!

I'm not sure what you lot are doing with your boots but I'm pretty sure my Dewalt Apprentice (stupid name) lasted over 3 years and took some real hammer. It wasn't until a job one winter where we had to walk about 200yds in deep mud to get to the building that they started to give up and even then I got a good few months more out of them before the sole came loose.
