Hey all. I started a new job where steel toed foot wear is highly suggested. It's standing for 8 hours every day, in various weather conditions. I have foot issues, and my usual go-to shoe has been a Sketchers Walking shoe with an extra Dr. Scholes pillow insert. I had two pairs of steel toe shoes (Sketchers work boot, and new Balance work shoe), but both leave my feet bruised by the end of my shift and leaving me barely able to walk. Any suggestions on a steel toe offering that has SUPER amounts of foot plush?

Yeah check it out, even if it’s just to feel it. They had me put the boots on on a rug, and then when you step off the rug on the concrete it’s wild. Red wings are the best, without a doubt. They oil your boots for free every time you go into the store, you get free shoelaces for life, and you can resole the boots for 100 bucks whenever you want

Went there today, and got a pair, with the anti-fatigue insole add on. Will work a full shift in them tomorrow. I see what you meant about walking on air. They feel weird, but not in a bad way. You don't feel any impact from your foot steps. It's bizarre
