New work footwear

January 26, 2025 3:56pm CST
Spending all my time at work on my feet, I have to make sure I have comfortable footwear. They also must comply with certain safety standards to ensure I stay safe at work. For example, I need steel or reinforced toecaps to ensure I don’t hurt my toes if a pallet is dropped on them. I take pride in what I wear, and I spent more than a full days wages on my new shoes. What do you think of them? They have bright orange soles but have a soft knit finish on the top. They are trainers and not rough work boots, so they are comfortable to wear for long periods of time. I just wish work wouldn’t provide new uniform in a timely manner.

Footwear is possibly the most important part of what you wear to work. These look nice.

That’s really lucky that they are so comfortable for being with shoes. The steel toes must make them heavier to walk around in. I’ve never worn any.

Yes they are noticeably heavier and will never be as comfortable as normal footwear due to the anti-pierce soles

@Danielclark691 I know too much about foot pain. Then that causes your back to ache. Not fun.

Thank you. I have had bad experiences in the past and now I refuse to buy cheap shoes that are uncomfortable

Your shoes look good. If you're on your feet all day, you certainly need comfortable shoes.
