Quality Karrimor Walking Boots £26.99 !!!!

Hi - I'm new to posting but had to tell everyone about this deal.

Sports Direct are doing Karrimor Aspen II Weathertite walking boots in-store and on-line for £26.99 (RRP £89.99). This is an amazing deal considering these boots have quality Vibram soles. They fit like socks - really comfy !!

They are doing other Karrimor boots even cheaper but don't buy those as the soles are rubbish (no rigidity). Pay a few pounds more and get the Vibram soles used on other considerably more expensive boots.

My girlfriend and I bought a pair each as we are both keen trekkers. I'll be wearing them up the Pyrenees this summer !!

    Standard Delivery £3.95 for orders under £50.
  • We went to the Kingston store and they had loads of sizes. My girlfriend tried on 6 and 6.5. I tried on 9, 9.5, 10 and 10.5 (I have wierd feet - don't ask).

    And there was no delivery charge buying in-store !!
  • Excellent spot they have loads of bargains on this site.

    Picked up the ladies walking boots and also a couple of pairs for the kiddies - have been looking for some in tiny sizes for ages and they are reduced to £7.99 here!

    There were suspicions that the Karrimor stock in Sports Direct was of a lower quality. I did buy a pair of 'cheap' under £30 Karrimor boots at Sports Direct. They were ill fitting and poorly made in comparison to previous purchases.
    There was a quote a while back on another website:
    I sell karrimor and would caution against buying them from sports direct (and sports warehouse).
    Mike Ashley owns the karrimor brand and he makes sub standard versions to sell himself which have a one year guarantee (but lucky if they last a year) and the proper ones to sell in outdoor stores which have a lifetime guarantee.
  • That's great seeing as how I need to buy 5 pairs at once - very many thanks!! Daughters off on D of E expedition OH & I off walking in Devon for Easter...
