For style-conscious shoppers, finding the right pair of wellington boots can be a surprisingly tall task. Not only do they have to be comfortable and waterproof, but they also need to be stylish and something you’d happily wear outside of the house.
Luckily, I’ve spotted a pair that ticks all of the boxes. The RHS Muckster II Short Boots by Muck Boot has earned a cult following and it’s not hard to see why.
RHS Muckster II Short Boots are the boots that recommended by the Royal Horticultural Society. Available in sizes three to nine, the boots cost £99 and are available in the choice of four colours including tan, blue, black and brown.

Whether you’re pottering in the garden or going on a long dog walk, the mid-height garden boots are ideal for the unpredictable British weather. Not your typical wellington, the boots are perfect for slipping on and off with ease.
The RHS Muckster II Short Boots feature 4mm neoprene, which can be rolled up, or down and worn as an ankle boot. The versatile rubber outsole holds in muddy conditions, yet sheds dirt quickly and efficiently, along with breathable air mesh lining keeping your feet cool on warmer days.
Elsewhere, Regatta’s Lady Harriett II Ankle Wellies are available for £36 instead of £40 with the discount code HIKE10 applied at checkout. Available in navy blue or black, the wellies feature Tecfoam technology that creates an enhanced underfoot cushioning resulting in prolonged durability and endurance.

Alternatively, Marks and Spencer’s Brown Wellies come in at £36. Ideal for rainy commutes, muddy walks or errands in the garden, the boots are made in an ankle-high style, with elasticated gussets for a good fit and a pull tab helps with getting them on.
Back at Muck Boot, the RHS Muckster II Short Boots has racked up a near-perfect overall star-rating of 4.9 out of five based on more than 215 reviews. One satisfied shopper said: “So glad I finally bought a pair. Tough on the outside, comfy on the inside. Easy to put on and keeps my feet warm.”
A second wrote: “Love them and they’re really waterproof, comfy and easy to get on and off.” A third mentioned: “Great mud boots for outside chores in rain or snow.”

“Love these boots,” a third penned. “Great for dog walking and gardening. They last me a few years but I do many miles everyday with my dogs and am fairly heavy footed in terms of wearing through footwear. These are my go-to boots always, thank you.”
While the RHS Muckster II Short Boots doesn’t have many negative reviews, one shopper docked the boots a star because you can see the size label when you roll the top over and ‘spoiling’ the look. Another four-star review reads: “I’m on my third pair of these boots.
“They are perfect for gardening as they’re comfortable and they waterproof. I wish they did half sizes so I could have a better fit.”

But somebody else loved their latest Muck Boots, adding: “Living in a rural area, these are great boots for walking the dog. Comfortable and warm. Absolutely love them, the best boots I have ever had.”
Another five-star review reads: “”I struggle to find boots that are easy to put on and are comfortable but these boots are, they are so good. I now have two pairs, one pair at the front door and one pair at the back door.”
