Trainers whenever I can! Have got some dewalt boots for site work, find them comfy if I'm stood up or wall tiling but when on my hands and knees they seem to hurt my toes, could do with a new pair too!!

H&S all the way. You only have one pair of feet & if they don't work, you don't!

I wear Dickies Epsom boots

Padded Mesh Collar and Tongue
External Heel Support System
Breathable lining
Steel Toe-Cap to EN20345 (200 Joules)
Steel Midsole for Underfoot Protection
Cemented sole unit
Ergonomically designed

Really comfy boots & breathable!

I find Nike Air trainers very comfortable, bought for holidays/casual wear then when they've gone slightly tatty I use them for work.

strong, soft, most of them comes with gel insoles

These are mine. Two pairs of laces as well, sounds daft but I seem to go through laces like I don't know what

 

[Bubblecraft]

I know what you mean John. I'm sure it's the addy burning through them. I buy my laces in bulk lol

There's an old saying - Spend the biggest amount of money you can afford on your shoes and your bed. If you're not in one, you're in the other!!

Looking outside this morning I think wellies would be the best choice for me!

are steel toe capped John I normal try and go for a cumfy pair of hiking/walking boots because I don't like steel toed ones when I'm doing the floor but I do go through a few pair a year and they look very robust
