mushroom 12,387 Posted July 18, 2019 Report Share Posted July 18, 2019 (edited) As Chid said get a composite toe cap not steel. I still have a crushed toe nail 21 years later, after a piece of plate metal buckled the toe cap into my big toe. They had to cut the boot off and everything.

They'll need a steel toe, an i need a real comfy pair as I'm on my feet all day. Can anyone recommend a pair? Thanks in advance. I don't know your job or if employed or self employed but, safety boots are part of PPE. If you are an employee then the employer must provide them. The duty of care. In any line of work in the UK. If you're in construction, the minimum PPE requirements should be stated in the risk assessment/method statement that you produce or sign before starting work. That should include safety footwear. Toe and mid sole protection mandatory (to all intents and purpose) in the UK, as HSE Guidelines. We also provide boots for our lads with ankle protection even if the PC/Main Contractor does not specify it. Every base covered, so no foot injuries, you would think. Ultimately though the simple rule of thumb that applies to most things in life, the more you pay the better the quality, particularly regarding the comfort aspect of boots 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
