Re: Work boots! (foot care)

For working in my shop, my old trusty Red Wing 8" steel toes have never let me down. When I'm actually at work (non-automotive related) I wear a composite toe Rocky 8" boot. Much like the above mentioned Danners, my Rockies can be resoled.

Re: Work boots! (foot care)

I'm a GM mechanic, so Steel Toe is a must (at least in my eyes, still see techs wearing normal shoes at work though). I am very limited in my options since I wear size 16, and I am flatfooted. I'm on my 3rd, soon to be 4th pair of Redwings and couldn't be happier. The last me about a year and are very comfortable/have great support. I have the mid-tops, the name of the model is worn out on the ones I have now, but I'll post up in a week of which ones they are (yep, takes a week to get my special ordered size in cause they probably have to use an entire cow to make my shoes).
