    Re: Are there ANY comfortable safety shoes?

    Hi

    i always get my safety requirements from an online shop.


    fast delivery and good prices, from most places but if you're worried give them a call, tell them what your looking for.

    It's the thread that wouldn't die, folks!

    Re: Are there ANY comfortable safety shoes?

    The best shoes I have found are made by Jallatte, unlike other shoes the toe cap and mid sole are made of composite material rather than steel. Have the sound safety rating as steel but weigh a hell of a lot less. My ones cost around £75 by the company buy them for me . . . .

    After years of trying different boots I settled with Doc Martens. They are good for a year of all day heavy wear and tear in an engineering environment, should be fine for a wharehouse.

    Re: Are there ANY comfortable safety shoes?

    I've been wearing safety boots from this Italian company for the last 10 years or so.

    http://www.aboutblu.com/

    They make a wide selection of safety footwear, from trainers to heavy boots, and are available in the UK from Powertools Direct and others. Superbly made and not expensive.
