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?

I have found after 25 years that you should get the lightest composite toe boots that are at least mid cut. You want light weight especially in the front and the stability of the mid cut to hold your ankle in place. Also if it has a heel that will help big time. Steel toe runners did the same thing to me, couldn't walk after a day in them.
