Work boots

[zeroseven]

My son who is working for a woodland / landscaping company needs some work boots.

Pref steel toes, waterproof and warm. Will be buying in UK.

I'm sure you have some favourites you can recommend ?

Thanks

What suits one person may not suit another but I like the Terra range from Arco. Here their site for you to have a look.

I find Arco are not the cheapest but have top quality and a good choice for all work clothes and boots. Let him pick his own for the sake of the peace though. Be warned though they do have some of the designer ones, which are quite pricey and not that much better. Try to guide him to comfort and practicality if you can.

If he likes the Terra ones I can recommend them, they are really good.

do they need to be chainsaw proof? if so he will need specialist boots for that. For everday working i have been using Altbergs. superb bit of kit, dry and warm, but a bit pricey

Thermo...just been reading their site and they do indeed sound the dogs bo**ocks. I appreciate quality and don't mind paying for it. Just out of curiosity what are we talking for an off the peg (as opposed to custommade) pair of boots. I live in Manchester so luckily it isn't that far for me to go there.

How did you find them were they recommended?
