Are there ANY comfortable safety shoes?

[OilSheikh]

Came across this thread in search of comfortable safety boots , I have never owned safety boots and now need them for volunteering at st John ambulance. They need to be black and I have a budget of £40, any recommendations ???

Regarding your question, for £40, no chance! Royal Mial Doc Martens cost that much on eBay, but the area where your feet rests is rock hard, expect hard skin, blood clots and etc.
You need to have a budget of £75 up - for CAT or Rockport ones
