Looking for a good pair of boots


Recommended Posts

I work in the oilfield on a rig.

The best boot you can buy are.

Red wing works.

Get the one with the kevlar on the outside they have a gritty outside and are comfortable. waterproof ect. very good traction in them as well.

Edit i have recently bought a pair of Timberland "Rig Masters" They are also waterproof and steel toe. very good buy for 200.

Just remember the most popular redwing sold is the pecos THEY ARE NOT WATEVERPROOF!!!

Get the works bottom line

Redwings all the way. Never put on a more comfrotabel boot than those. The Redwings I have are around $200 tho.

they are very comfortable i tried on a 83800 today

btw can someone shine some light for me what is better steel toe or aluminum toe is there much of a difference

I do not wear aluminum boots but my assumption is aluminum would be lighter but not as strong

I prefer the composite toes over steel toes. much lighter and still rated as steel toes. steel toes arent any stronger then any other rated toes, they are just heavier. I have used redwings, cats, timberlands. I have wide feet so i prefer timberlands because they are more comfortable then redwings to me.

Check out cabelas. I have a pair from them. Idr what they are but they are goretex leather, optional steeltoe, and goretex camo colored canvas on the sides, they were in insulated or non. I've had them for 3 years. Used mainly in snow but have used to go caving for a weekend and welding. Still look good. They were size 16 4E :)

If I recall they call those reinforced toe and are not aceptable substitutes for some employers

i see i will have to talk him then cause i really like these boots but i will have to find something else if i have to

you were right my employers don't accept it

Id say get some georgia boots. Mine are steel toe all the way around also got me a comfortable inserts for them and still usin them to this day since got them when i was 15. And now I'm 20. Only thing wrong with them is I split the leather on the toes from dropping stuff but still holding strong through a lot of mud oil cow poo andthing ya could think of walkin through. And fairly cheap also
