Apparently!!!!
Last Christmas the good lady bought me some new walking boots, wanted some new onesfor walking the dogs.
50% is probably on the streets, 40% is walking on paths around Marton Mere and the odd time on the golden sands of the Fylde Coast.
Nine months in and they are falling apart!! Feet wet. I have been fell walking for years so I know how to look after them, they get cleaned and re-proofed. Took them back today and was told they are made for walking mountains,  couldn't help but laugh at him and he went on saying the salt and peat was degrading them, reminded him that they are cleaned when I came off the beach and I walk walk mainly on paths/ pavements.
Yes I got a new pair so let's see how long these last.

What sort were they? Was the replacement the same?

Yea got the same boot. Mountain Warehouse Trekker 2.
My others were Berghaus which last 30 years, just used for fell walking etc. I didn't want spend the Berggy amount for dog walking as I don't hit the fells anymore.

I got some like that a while back. Aldi. They were about £20. They lasted reasonably well. I lost them!

Now I get this sort of thing, non-safety work boots, proper welted sole, decent boots for gardening or walking (available at other places, other makes similar):

I bought some Peter Storm (I think) fabric topped walking shoes/boots with a memory foam liner. For use on the plot rather than proper walking up hill and down dale.

They are very comfortable with that liner. But it's also a real sponge when it gets wet - the squelch is NOT enjoyable
