I always buy Justins but make sure you buy made in USA. The chinese made are junk. I will say the made in bangladesh i bought recently (im sparing the details) actually arent bad.
Steel toe or not?
Hiking, or work, or winter?
There are a lot of boots out there.
Overall general use.
Like I need a new pair of boots for if a SHTF type situation were to arise.
Steel toe would be good? But may be too restrictive.
if it is SHTF go for hiking boots, which are really, really different from work boots.
no steel toe
Okay.
Does that narrow the brands down?
Should go steel toe. They make a good weapon if you've ever kicked a football.
Was a cable guy for two years, wool socks and high end Redwing shoes are what you're looking for. Great customer service, they'll help you find what you're looking for.
Red Wings, go look
I am. There's a store near my gym apparently that I'll go to tomorrow to check out.
I wonder if they're kiked on cuckmuzzles though.
1504 feet from my gym :)
Not all RW are USA made anymore. A general search will get you there.
Sorel
I'll check them.
Thanks.
