Work Boots

[Montauk17]

Wanted to get yalls opinion on the best steel toe boots....had some doc martins and they only lasted 8 months before the sole came apart.

Red Wings! Enough said

[weedeater]

docs suck, i have had good luck with Justin boots and Redwings are good too

[dmtfish]

Wolverine all the way, but to each his own.... Redwings are terrible IMO.

I still wear my Wolverines and I don't even have to have them anymore. Always liked em but, that's just me.

[jlincecum]

they give us redwings out here, love em!! wolverines are also good but take longer to break in

1st of all you're gonna pay for a good pair. Redwings & Ariats are high but for a reason. Just bought a pair of Ariats, my second pair but they last. I put many miles on them. Ariats & Redwings are the only ones that I've had that last. I've been working construction in Chem Plants & Refineries for over 20 years, which equals alot of miles on concrete

Docs are heavy. Bought some wolverines to try out and so far I love them. Really light and comfortable. I I wear them sometimes when I don't even have to and I have always hated boots

[Asterisk-Rich]

When i was working in the oilfield i always went with wolverines. Extra comfy for the big dude!

I had bad luck with Ariat soles coming apart working on grating all day. Twisted X held up way better if your looking for a cowboy boot style. If not you can't go wrong with a set of Red Wings.

Roughly how much do red wings cost?

[Super Spook]

I don't wear steel toe's but I love my Rocky's. Like wearing tennis shoes. The sole on them is awesome.

My first pair of Redwings 28 years ago sucked.
Switched to Georgia Boots, then Wolverine. Bother were good.
Tried on some great Redwings. That's what I have now. They are a lot better than in the past.
If I were you, try some on. If they hurt when new, they will hurt for a while. Get something with soft, comfortable insoles.
Most good steel toe's start around $90 or so.
All steel toe boots and shoes are heavy. Some more than others.
If they hurt your ankles when new, don't get them.

It's been a lil while since I bought a pair.

[Montauk17]

Owch...will check out the wolverines. Thanks fellas

[BIG RED 1983]

Try Out some Justin boots

[fishinpox]

I have ariats ... Cowboy boots very comfortable , I wore the soles out in 1 year but I wear em nearly every day n I walk like a fool dragging my heels ! Buy them a lil tighter than normal because ariats stretch out .

[Top Dawg]

I've worn just about all of em. Wolverines diet hold up. Docs weigh a ton and don't hold up. I liked justins ok. Really liked ariats and the pair I'm wearing now are twisted X and I don't think I'll ever own another work boot besides twisted X.
