what do you guys recommend footwear for work bought some cheap boots from sports direct

but me foookin feet are killing me everytime I take em off can anyone recommend anything more comfy

cheers
 
i got the dewalt bolster boots a couple of months ago not had a problem with them diddnt even hurt when i first wore them, screwfix have them £20 off at the moment down to £40 i think
 
Normally nick the misses high heels for cealings over than the I go to sports direct as well and no matter what I get the it falls apart after a week
 
Ive got the same as you I think jase. Can only wear boots for so long before my ankle starts to go again so I keep trainers in the van. Got some reebok running shoes atm. Really comfy.
 
Never buy cheap crap footwear because 'they're only for work'. youre on your feet all day so might aswell be comfy
 
When i first met my business partner on a site he was wearing flip flops and shorts and a vest i thought wtf.

He stopped wearing them after he dropped a stanley in his toe hahah
 
One guy I was working for turned up on site and seen a nail in a piece of wood, he started moaning, I said fair point but don't come in here with trainers on,,I hate soft shoes on site, we have all the ppe and then architects , the clients and designers wander on site in suits, high heels and soft shoes, are these idiots immune to the rules? Back to boots, dickies are not bad from wickes
 
Scruffs boot are ok once worn in a bit. I now have dewalts I'm on my 2nd pair and there real comfy straight out the box and not heavy
 
DM's for me, just got some slip ons for working on domestics and safety trainers for site work, well comfy but it all depends on what's best for your little pinkies
 
i had dewalt explorers for about 5 years so they was nice and comfy after a while but my god did they hurt for the first couple of weeks, but the bolsters ones are so comfortable and very light even with the steel, highly reccomend them
 
I wear Dickies riggers, cheap enough and comfy. Got some DeWalt ones as well but don't wear them for work yet.
Used to wear cheapo Asda value trainers for a fiver until they stopped doing them.
 
Usually Iwear my trainers or shoes that I am now fed up withbut am looking at getting some propper ones from englebert strauss. As beddy said you needto be comfy.
 
I wear dealt apprentice boots really comfy straight out the box,I wear one pair at work and wear one pair too work and when the too work ones look scruffy they become my work boots and I buy new ones to wear too work,so on and so on.

CAT steel toe for me. The man i served my time with told me not to buy cheep boots for work when you are going to be in them 10 hours a day 5 or 6 days a week. Then spend big money on shoes you are going to wear a few hours at the weekend.
