A quick question on budget shoe construction please. I'm currently exploring footwear options for really bad UK rainy days, to relieve a rotation of calf shoes.

Not currently in the market for a more ideal Dainite solution, and hardly the epitome of style, but do these rubber-soled Timberland Earthkeepers look like they have a bonwelt, stormwelt, or something else that's scary? Pic of side and sole (with no visible stitching on bottom) attached.

Thanks

Just to follow up if it helps anyone else searching on the future that I sent these back in the end due to the dubious construction, in favour of something hopefully more solid. In time I had a reply back from a query to the UK Timberland customer service people, who advised none of their 2017 range were welted.
