i have given up on my company buying me work boots as the ones they supplied to fit me before are crap and fall apart in weeks. i have to get mine on ebay as not many shops around here stock a size 13 tall boot off the shelf. the other week my boots got wet on a site moving a genie lift so i had to wear my riggie boots for a day walked in the office and first thing that was said was oh don't know if you can wear them the reply of is that or i go home soon changed there mind lol
Partly the reason I wear uvex boots is they are easy to get in Size 14 👣

I’ve got a pair of those and practically live in them - really comfortable!

safety workboots the timberland pro composite are brilliant. full toe and sole protection and they use comp0osite not steel so are much lighter. Never had cold feet with them. Not cheap but I wont skimp on comfort.

A lot of the American lads seem to love keen boots which they boast are European made but can’t seem to buy them here. Fed up of spending 100 quid to buy a pair of uncomfortable boots.

bought a pair of Buckley boots after 3 of their wellies, steel toe rubs the shot out my big clown feet.

hogs of Scotland have been my go to but heavy want a composite lighter boot. Same as you lads 70 odd hours a week in them

Look at Engelbert Strauss boots
Good boots not stupid price but slot of material rather than leather

Used to buy Jalatte Jalsiberians, brilliant boot but they have a little hi vis patch on heel that always wore out and tore. Swapped to Jalhickory’s and had no complaints so far good if you like a tall boot. Dunlop purofort for wellies.
