Morning all

Having changed rolls whilst whilst working in a Warehouse I am now walking between 8 and 10 miles a shift according my phone. So I need some advice and guidance towards a boot that is comfortable, supports and is supportive ankle and soft underfoot as my normal boots with insoles are not cutting it ? 😎😎😎

Any suggestions? TIA

Do they need to be safety? If not then by far the comfiest boots are salomon, super supportive and light.

The dewalt Pro lite are a real comfortable boot straight out the box, not heavy either (it's in the name) as no midsole and an aluminium toe cap. Only about 55 quid I paid as well.

I bought some ariat ones after and they're comfortable and very well made but very heavy as well and took some breaking in.

Thanks for the replies👍🏻Need to be boots unfortunately from my perspective as need ankle protection as dragging pallets around and have caught back of ankle a couple of times😡 they do supply boots but they are the cheapest contract boots you can buy 🙀
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
