Blundstones

[Blank_Dave]

Anyone familiar with this line of work shoe/boot? Especially their Green Patch safety shoes.

They caught my eye, and it's time I replace my Dakota quad comforts. (They're getting pretty chewed up. )

Work requires that I have steel toes, and 'business like' footwear. I want a steel shank, comfort, and preferably slip resistance.

Wiuld it be worth considering switching to blundstones? Of course other recommendations are appreciated.

I used to use blundstones. They're very durable and comfortable.

How well do you think they'd stand up to day after day kind of use. Most shoes last me about a year as it is

Been wearing Blundstones for years. Love 'em. Easy to slip on, slip off. Extremely comfortable. Don't have the steel toe version, but presume they would feel good.

Here's a picture for you, GOD.

Cardinal Fang, you'll notice these boots are naked. (In fact, I couldn't even find a picture of them wearing any clothes.)

I wore mine every single day for hours on end. I think they lasted me 4 years.

yeah, I was going to mentioned red wings too....

You could also try timberland pro....

But dakota offers a composite toe shoe that I wore all summer and they were awesome. Put a better insole in and I didn't even notice they were safety shoes....although, since I was working outside construction, they just didn't stand up to the rough terrain. The sole tread sections started peeling off after a couple of months......

a buddy I worked with last winter had a pair of (don't remember the brand) that were good for -40 and cost him $398.......too rich for my blood....
