MrHappy Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 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....

norman Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Yeah, not enough support, similar to rigger boots. 59 minutes ago, al-yeti said: Will be ok on a church roof with pallets tho Good point, well put.

sixwheeledbeast Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 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.

RichL Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 I tried to buy Dr Martens from ARCO recently and was told they dont stock them any more? Ended up with ARCO's own brand alternative, which are *****, already falling apart and all I do these days is walk the dog. 1 Quote Originally said by Charles Babbage On two occasions I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?'
