Mine don't have steel toe caps. It's some carbon fibre cos I'm posh like that.
 
I've actually got 2 pair of boots,I pair of shoes and some wellies!!
 
What? Network expenses. No surprises gas bills always on the up as transportation costs so high.
 
What's wrong with these at £15; if they only last three months, that's around 17pence per day.

I have had dewalt apprentice boots for the last 5 years or so probably get 6 months out of them 6 days a week 10-12 hours a day. November I got the dewalt platinum boots thought that spending the extra money may see them last a year but if I wear these for 18 hours odd my feet come up in a heat rash that never used to happen with the apprentice boots
 
Mascot batura boots as reccomended by billy are brilliant.
Comfy, sturdy and durable.
I have bought another two pairs they are that good.

Dickies Medway boot, by far the best boot I've ever had, usually I wear through the toe, on carpet and on dust sheets! and have to change every 6 months, on these I'm still on same pair 18 months and still going. Not cheap at £50ish but worth the money, warm and supportive too

they look good mate. im happy with the mascot batura though. and i have just bought a pair of mascot kenya boots as well
 
The dickies and amblers are the same boot, I think and possibly the same as ones in post #7?

They look the same. You vlaim they dont last? What you basing that on? The ones in your pic look like they just need a good clean....:D
 
The toe is fine it's the steel sole plate , it pops through at front and then you always have wet feet and they just fall to bits after that

Do they have a maximum load? Perhaps you're just too fat for em.....:D
 
Ha ha ha . Think it's because I work too hard. Or kick apprentices too hard?

Best boots. Laces never snap, toes don't wear through, can slip them off at the door and they're comfy as hell. Who needs boots?

Hi Guys, I am not a gas engineer but would like advice on a job I have been quoted. There is a high level gas heater that has to be taken out of service, around 5mtrs up. There is a chance we will want to re-instate it in a year or two so the unit will stay in situ. The room is used for storage...

Ah, the joys of older home ownership (1974). We thought our major plumbing issues were dealt with when we got rid of our orangeburg sewer line and our rusted out galvanized supply line to our house. It's still galvanized under the house, but we live in a very dry climate and the pipes/joints...
