I have dickies ones at the moment but they arent holding up to well the sole seems to be coming apart from the rest of the boot, so it will be back to cats for my next pair.

Work provided me with the ones below the ranger, the alpine, but they are not as comfortable.

I have these at the minute

And I'm actually very happy with them. Composite toe and mid-sole, very light on the feet, and very comfy.
They did make my feet sweat a bit, but fitting an in-sole seems to have sorted that. They stunk like fuck before I did though lol

dewalts are the choice of many on site when they soften up thier like trainers very light weight to
they've started to wear out inside, the soles have started to slip so they aren't as comfortable, and yes, they have started to stink a bit so i have to leave garlic cloves in them overnight to get rid of the smell
