Holy thread resurrection....

 

 

For a couple of years I bought dealer boots for work, maybe go though 2 pair in year.

 

The boots pictured have aluminium toe caps & composite mid sole, 1st wear today & they are much nicer than the v12 boot that are about knacked....

Most safety boots kill the feet 

 

So these comfortable? You bouncing in them yeah?

comfy out the box, old boots have gone in the bin

 

I normal put gel insoles in work boots, there £35 from screwfix

Can't see them allowed on sites though.

Park the van in town, quick shirt swap you may get admitted to a club or two.

Yeah, not enough support, similar to rigger boots.

Good point, well put. 

They have no ankle support, some sites don't like riggers because they are loose round the ankle.

If your not a site basher I don't see the issue in light work boots or trainer style.

When your on domestics you want something you can slip off if you need plus I hate driving in boots.
