Someone asked me what boots I use over the summer months, they wanted a pair for dog walking. Like I'd know 
In the winter just wear wellington boots.
The only boots I buy regularly now for the summer are jungle boots for £70.
Now each year my family would set off to Bethlehem, Israel for Christmas. In the last 5 years no ones gone for many reasons I wont go into on here.
I would always get a pair of cheap Teva-Naot scout commando boots for about £30 while I was there.
You can find them online for about £50.
The problem is the great British summer...........
The main issue is the wet and mud. If I'm down on a mud flat by a river or on sand by sea..... my wet suit boots just cant take it for long. I just get really annoyed when I need to replace them and my feet sweat like hell in them out of the water. They really do smell too.
You could just get a pair of converse boots but the mud loves them and there overpriced.
You probably wont abuse your summer foot wear like me. I'm really ruff on my gear during the summer and salt water is a killer. My crocs are the only shoe I don't need to replace very other year.
You'd look pretty stupid walking around the town centre in anything but the converse or maybe the commando boots, but its not what your buying them for. You need fast drying boots that mud wont stick too, for me the jungle boots work best.
