Aj11 Posted February 11, 2014 Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 i worked in a warehouse for years. steel toe boots were mandatory. I've spent $180 on tims with steel toe/heel/sole they lasted 6 months bought many.many types anywhere from $80-$180 they all seem to fall apart within 6 months. i finally got sick of dropping $300 a year on boots and bought some $30 wallmart boots well to my surprise They lasted almost 2 years. so now that's what i buy. $30 braham boots. not to mention they are the most comfortable boots I've ever warn jvc deck stinger 1800 front hc 2000 kinetic rear 2 runs of 1/0g big 3/4 ct 60.4 2 ct 1400.1 ct EXO 15 d1 lots of deadner type r comps front stage 6 kicker tweets rear stage lots of great stuff coming soon ho alt more bats ct comps for front stage more deadner sweet amp rack lots of L.E.D lights new deck (thinking 80 prs, or flip out) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lbox88 Posted February 11, 2014 Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 See if you can find a legit shoe store around your area, one that specializes in work boots. That'd be your best bet for finding some that you like the fitment of, and if you get the model name/number you could always say you need to think about which ones to get, meanwhile go home and hit up Amazon or fleabay or Zappos or something. One thing to mention, Wolverine HQ is up here by me and it sounds like they are trying to layoff and fire most of their senior workers for younger people who they can pay less as well as move to another state.

TRON Posted February 11, 2014 Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 There's a local shop that makes custom boots where I have to get mine made. Got a 4E width which makes shoe shopping impossible. Anyways, my experience with work boots is get a pair that fits so perfect you forget your wearing them. NO EXCEPTIONS...imo...

RCP Audio Posted February 11, 2014 Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 My every day shoes are John Bull cheetah's amazing for walking/lifting every day in, replaceable gel insets mean they are comfy as fuck steel cap heat resistant all that whohaa as well PSN: Rcp_soundz Good rule of thump is go by what fuse size is being used in these amps. The higher the more amperage it pulls, this is what I look at. I'll stick a 300 amp fuse in a potato and sell it to you for $2k. 1991 Mazda 323VERY small build thread here: http://www.stevemead...23-small-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbdblue Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 weird, I am/ was shopping for new boots too....I have a pair of timberlands that I still where around the house....no sole left, but there comfy. I bought a pair of tim pro's that I ended up returning cuz they destroyed my toes in 2 days. red wings felt like they had no cushion on the sides and tongue, and wolverines although they were comfortable (the Durbin), they didn't feel durable. I ended up going with Keens Detroit....set me back about 150 bucks. It sucks though man, you gotta try em till you find the most comfortable for you. I tried looking at reviews online, and they're literally "most comfortable" right next to "worst boots ever" AA-Atomic-Clif Designs-DC-Diamond-Digital Designs-Directed-Eclipse-Fi-Hertz-Hifonics-Kenwood-Memphis-Phoenix Gold-Pioneer-PPI-PSi-Stinger-Sundown-TC Sounds-Viper-Zapco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2003 SSEi Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 I am surprised no body mentioned Rocky Boots. IMO the Red Wing Boots are not durable and fall apart. I work in the oil and gas field and walk a lot. I basically wear out a pair of boots once a year, and have an Insulated and a Non insulated pair. most of the guys in my crew also either wear the Rocky or Timberland Pro. 2003 SSEi Supercharged 12.50@108mph Type RF 6.5's Components Type RF 5.25's Components HX2 Power 12's Type RF X2,X4,X7 Amps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
727Designs Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Depending on the weather. Summer time, and when I don't need a heavy boot I have some Wolverine slip on's. Rest of the time I swear by my Chippewa loggers. -Zach-2010 Toyota TundraFull Hybrid Audio SQ 7" BDS on 37's 2000 Ford Expedition 160+ dB Green Turd -SOLD- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Schenk Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 I use wolverines they are tough as hell being I work in an industrial paint factory. They have to deal with paint resins catalyst and all sorts of solvents. Have used redwings won't last a year at my job. Also have used thorogoods which almost lasted a year . I don't pay for boots my work does so for what I can get wolverines are the most durable and comfortable. On 3/28/2014 at 4:22 PM, KyLar96 said: Its all about the music anyway.....

Skullz Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Redwings Great boots are worth the investment if they keep your feet comfortable for long work days. You can't put a price on something that feels so good that you don't want to take them off. 01 Ford focus ZX3 Pioneer AVH-X491BHS PPI PC 4800.2 Morel Maximo 6.5" x2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
