Hi all,

Thanks

As long as they are strong and well made they will do the job, steel toe would be fine. I just wanted some suggestions on decent brands so I would know what to look out for. To be used on building site.

I've always used Caterpillar , Heavy, but durable and ever lasting.

Doc Martens are crap...slippy sole (try walking on ice with docs) that doesn't last long, and the leather cracks (yes I looked after them) Look into some army boots.

Steel capped Blundstones.

Look into some army boots.

Good idea that.

I bought an army parkour and pair of trousers a few years ago, the coat is way too big for me (my incompetence ordering) but in a good way because its like a mobile sleeping bag, and the trousers are wind/waterproof. I'm usually left behind when going shooting because they're so warm and element proof I've fallen asleep in a hideout.

For durability army stuff cant be beat, not the most comfortable I imagine though.

check this site out, my mother works at a diary and they buy all their stuff from here - good quality and not too expensive. They have a few shops in some places too, individuals can buy from them too, not just companies.

Magnum Elite's - had a few pairs now and they have been excellent, not for walking around town mind you...

Well made boots, you want to take a trip to an army surplus store or to Dr Marten.
For well made shoes, I'd go for some Oliver Sweenies [Oliver Sweeny is the designer] or Patrick Cox. For formal work shoes go to Barker's.
Let us know what you go for in the end
