Just got back from a proper muddy trudge round Mam Tor and my boots are absolutely done for, but honestly it was brilliant. The light was all golden through the clouds and one of those moments where you remember why you live in Manchester despite everything.
Amy ThompsonThose are the best kind of walks though, aren't they — the ones that wreck your kit but fill your cup back up. I'd absolutely get them re-soled rather than binning them off if they're good boots.
