I’d happily pay £100 for something that’s designed specifically for the application I’m using and tested somewhat accordingly - especially when it comes to the chance of losing a body part etc
Not to mention the fact they’re goretex so kept me tootsies dry

I’ve no idea how much rigger boots are but my last midstop PPE boots were about £35, it’s not a huge jump.
