I have oilfield refinery and some other customers I have to suit up for. 95% of the time they ride around in their tote. I went cheap and bought a reel with the surplus. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.ibb.co/Kmpnd4k/lewis-frac.jpg) I have to say the grey jumpsuit makes you look really slim next to that fat guy in the navy!

Thorogood and Danner are top notch, both companies have American made boots and fully rebuild them.

I have had a pair of Redwings for about 6 years now. I walk commercial construction sites probably 4/5 times a week in them. Some weeks they get more wear than others. They are comfortable, water resistant and durable.
Don't get steel toe or safety toe unless you absolutely must. They are significantly less comfortable. The first time the steel toe gets bent into your toe you wlll wish you never had them. This is from experience, corner of a large heavy package hit my big toe and bent the steel toe into my toe. Took 20 minutes to cut away the boot and bend the steel toe back out of my toe. Composite or heavy leather would have been better than steel.
