Hunting is an exhilarating activity that can bring you closer to nature, but nature isn’t always the most comfortable place to trek around in. Whether you are looking to do a little winter-time hunting, or you live in one of the colder regions of the world where most—or even all—of the year is frosty, it is crucial that you are properly prepared for the climate you will experience while you’re out there.

Warm clothes are a given, but we often have a tendency to put a lot of thought into the clothes that protect our core and only a fleeting consideration for our extremities. That is until we’re out in the cold and realize just how important good boots and gloves are.

Boots especially are essential, not just because keep your feet warm, but because the entirety of your body’s weight presses down on them, and minor problems can turn into big problems over time. Things like a lack of sufficient breathability leading to your feet sweating too much, which can, in turn, lead to fungal infections. Or improper fitting of the boots that, over enough use, can cause long term issues as far up your body as your lower back. A lack of water resistance can be a real problem in cold weather, as once your feet are wet, it is just about impossible to get warm without some dry shelter and a heat source. And, of course, the warmth itself self is crucial. Frostbite will always hit your toes and fingers first.

So, hopefully, we’ve impressed upon you the importance of good hunting boots when heading out into the cold, but we wanted to take things a step further, so keep reading for our top ten picks for best cold weather hunting boot choices!

1. Lacrosse Men’s Alphaburly Pro 18″ 1600G Waterproof Hunting Shoe

Lacrosse’s Alphaburly hunting boots are a boot with protection in mind. With an 18″ high cuff and waterproof upper, your feet—and indeed your entire lower leg—will be well protected from the elements. Not to mention many of nature’s beautiful creatures that might decide to take a bite. The cuff itself is somewhat flexible and has an adjustable opening, so getting the boots on and off should not be a problem, and you can adjust them for comfort once they are on.

Neoprene lining provides plenty of ventilation, which should help to keep your feet from working up too much of a sweat. The midsole is cushioned for added comfort and incorporates a shank for arch support and better underfoot protection. At the same time, the outsole features a unique tread pattern that should help you maintain grip in most typical hunting situations.

The materials used in this boot are premium, scent-free rubber, and neoprene, providing an excellent mix of durability and flexibility. Overall, this is a remarkably flexible and lightweight boot, especially when you consider how much protection it offers. Boots this light and flexible tend to be considerably less durable and not offer as much protection for the wearer—definitely a worthy inclusion in our best cold weather hunting boot list.

2. Kamik Men’s Hunter Snow Boot

The Kamik Men’s Hunter Snow Boot is not quite as tall as the Alphaburly, but it offers just as much protection for the areas it covers. As the name suggests, it is designed with snowy climates in mind. The boot is not only waterproof but oil and acid-proof. Granted, these aren’t exactly traits you would expect to need on an average hunt, but it does make the boot more versatile.

For your money, you will get a 13″ high cuff made of nylon, while inside the thermal guard removable liner should provide plenty of warmth. With a temperature rating of -40 degrees Fahrenheit, this boot will be more than enough for the average hunt. And moisture-wicking technology will keep your feet dry. The rubber of the outer section of the boot is extremely tough, and the synthetic rubber outsole provides a good amount of grip, which, as you might expect, is geared towards the snowier end of the weather spectrum. If you are hunting in winter climates where it is cold but not necessarily snowy, you might prefer a more agile boot.

3. Columbia Men’s Bugaboot Plus IV Winter Boot, Omni-Heat

One of the shorter picks in our best cold weather hunting boot list, the Columbia Men’s Bugaboot Plus IV is a sleek affair made from nylon, leather, and rubber in the outsole. This common combination of materials provides plenty of durability without completely sacrificing the flexibility that is often desired in footwear.

The shaft of the boot stretches a comfortable 7″ high, giving you plenty of ankle protection while still providing a good deal of mobility. The cuff itself presents a comfortably wide opening that should make getting the boot on and off easy enough, but if not, the lace-up design should allow for some wiggle room in that area, figuratively and literally. Underneath, we have a rubber outsole with an omnidirectional grip, which should help you avoid slipping in any direction.

Inside, the Omni-Heat lining reflects heat back to your feet, keeping your toes toasty during those cold outings without the need for lots of bulky insulation, though they can get a little cold if you spend long periods not moving.

4. Rocky Men’s Sport Utility Pro Hunting Boot

Rocky Men’s Sport Utility Pro boot is a more traditional style of boot, with a lace front design. The cuff is still quite high—10″ to be precise—so you are still getting plenty of ankle protection. They are waterproof, of course, with the upper being made from a 100% leather and nylon combination, which provides a nice mixture of strength and flexibility.

The molded rubber outsole features not only excellent tread for keeping your grip in a precarious situation but also includes extra protection for the toe and heel, which should help keep your feet better protected and prolong the life of those parts of the boot. Inside, Thinsulate insulation will keep your feet nice and warm without adding too much weight or thickness to the boot.

While the Rocky Men’s Sport Utility Pro Hunting Boot may not be the ideal footwear for hunting in deep snow, it is a relatively agile boot with plenty of grip and protection and is very well suited to rough terrain.

5. Bogs Men’s Classic High No Handle Waterproof Insulated Rain and Winter Snow Boot

Moving back to a classic high boot, the Bog’s Men’s Classic Winter Snow boot is a 12″ boot of rubber and neoprene construction, providing adequate protection around the foot and more flexibility around the lower leg. It is 100% waterproof, and the lack of a carry handle means you can wade into water as deep as your boots are high. The trade-off here is that getting the boots on and off isn’t as easy as it perhaps is with other tall boots that have handles or adjustable collars.

The outsole features a beefy tread that extends around the sides of the boot, giving you a little extra grip if you happen to roll your foot or find yourself attempting to gain traction at an angle. The outsole is also non-slip and non-marking. Inside, there is a removable sock liner with moisture-wicking properties to keep your feet dry and warm.

6. Muck Boot Woody Max Hen’s Hunting Boot

The second-tallest boot on our list, clocking in at 15″, is the Muck Boot Woody Max Hen’s Hunting Boot. Like the Bog’s boot above, this is a tall boot with a rubber lower section and neoprene upper section, though the rubber section extends much higher on this boot, providing additional support for the ankle and lower leg. There is just enough of the flexible neoprene to allow for different leg-sizes comfortably.

Of course, the boot is waterproof, and it is well-insulated, with a temperature rating of -40 degrees Fahrenheit. There is also a thick foam insole to keep your feet comfortable when trekking over harsh terrain.

Underneath, the outsole’s tread offers a good amount of traction, and being made from high-abrasion rubber, you shouldn’t have to worry about it wearing out any time soon.

7. Guide Gear Giant Timber II Men’s Insulated Waterproof Hunting Boots, 1,400-gram, Mossy Oak

Utilizing a stylish combination of suede leather and printed nylon for the upper, the Guide Gear Giant Timber II hunting boots are an excellent looking pair of boots that maintain a rugged exterior. In other words, just because they look good doesn’t mean that they’re not up to the job!

At 14″ to the cuff, this is one of the taller boots on our best cold weather hunting boot list, but unlike many of the other boots in this height range, the Timber IIs feature a lace-up design that should make it much easier to get the boot on and off, as well as adjust it for a more comfortable fit.

Of course, the boots are waterproof to keep moisture from getting in, while HydroGuard breathable membranes prevent moisture from inside becoming an issue. Along with the breathable membranes inside, you will find very effective insulation to keep your feet warm and ScentMask technology. After all, your feet will probably be in those boots for a while, enduring some tough times—it can’t hurt to have a little protection against odor!

8. Irish Setter Men’s Vaprtrek LS 827 1200 Gram Hunting Boot

Irish Setter has built a good name for themselves in the world of outdoor pursuits’ footwear, and the Vaptrek LS 827 is no exception. This 9″ tall hunting boot is constructed from synthetic materials and ripstop nylon, making light and durable, while the outsole is made from rubber and includes additional protection for the toe area. There are also specially designed rubber pods in the outsole to enhance balance and improve the gripping ability of the boot, which is also waterproof.

Inside the boot, there are 1,200 grams of lightweight PrimaLoft insulation, enough to keep your feet warm without adding too much weight or bulk to the boot. The addition of ScentBan technology should also keep your feet odor-free, even on those longer treks.

The Vaprtrek 827 is an excellent boot for people who expect to be doing a lot of trekking through uneven terrain, as it provides additional ankle support without restricting your motion too much. It would not be suitable for deep snow, however.

9. Danner Men’s High Ground 8 Realtree X 1000G-M

Made using oiled nubuck to improve water resistance, the Danner Men’s High Ground 8 Realtree X boots present an eye-pleasing mixture of browns and printed polyester to produce one of the more attractive boots on our list. The materials are abrasion resistant and designed with a shorter break in period in mind, so you won’t have to spend as much time struggling along in stiff boots.

It is 100% waterproof on the outside, while Gore-Tex breathable liners will keep your feet fresh and dry on the inside. The overall boot is lightweight, allowing you to move more quickly and quietly on your hunts.

10. Rocky Men’s Blizzard Stalker Pro Mobu Hunting Boot

At a little under 10″ to the cuff, the Rocky Men’s Blizzard Stalker Pro Mobu Hunting boot occupies a nice middle ground between the short and tall hunting boots. This height is excellent for people who want extra support and protection for their ankles but without losing lots of mobility, as they might with 14″ or 18″ boots.

The upper of the boot is made from 100% leather and textile to give an understated yet stylish look. They won’t set the fashion world on fire, but they look good. Naturally, for a winter hunting boot, they are waterproof. Inside there are 1,200 grams of Thinsulate insulation and a PU mesh footbed that allows plenty of ventilation to keep your feet fresh. The footbed is also removable for those of you who would like to use your own insoles. The outsole sports an impressive tread that will keep your footing on all but the slippiest of surfaces, and a TPU heel stabilizer helps to keep you from inadvertently rolling on your heel.

Best Cold Weather Hunting Boot Buying Guide

We feel we’ve given you a substantial selection to choose from there, but as good as our best cold weather hunting boot choices are, you may still feel the need to look for something else. Not to worry, our list is by no means definitive. While we do believe our picks are the best, that doesn’t mean there aren’t plenty of other great options out there. As you long as you keep a keen eye out for the most important aspects of a good winter hunting boot, you should be okay. So, to help make sure you don’t miss anything, we’ve put together this buying guide.

Upper Section

The upper section of a cold-weather hunting boot needs to be durable and water-resistant. It would be nice to have the kind of flexibility and suppleness you can get with lighter boots, but there are trade-offs to make if you want to head out into the cold wilds, and it is likely you will have to prioritize the more essential traits of your boots.

The water-resistance may not be essential in all cases, but if you are hunting in cold weather, your chances of encountering rain or snow are much higher, so it’s a safe bet you’ll want your boots to be able to keep your feet dry. The durability is obvious—if your boots rip or tear, they’ll be leaving your feet exposed to the elements, not to mention compromising any water-resistance.

Inner Lining

The inner linings of your boots need to do double duty, both as insulation and cooling, which can sound a little counterintuitive at first. Naturally, you will need your winter hunting boots to keep your feet warm against the cold outside, but adequate breathability is also essential.

If your boots are just packed with insulation, your feet may be kept warm, but they will also be enclosed and liable to start sweating. This can be a nightmare in especially cold environments because wet feet—however they got wet—are considerably more uncomfortable than dry cold feet. Be on the lookout for breathable linings or moisture-wicking properties. Anti-bacterial treatment is also a good thing to have in your boots.

Midsole

In the midsole, you will need a nice balance of comfort and firmness. Hunting nearly always means venturing off the beaten path—nobody sits at the side of the road waiting for deer to come speeding out into the open. It also tends to mean you are on your feet for extended periods.

The comfort factor is important, of course, because you don’t want your feet developing painfully rubbed spots or bruises. But at the same time, you need a good amount of stability from your midsole to prevent things like stones from giving the soles of your feet too hard a time. A solid shank is often a good indication of a midsole with enough strength to keep your soles protected. Again, a good amount of flex may make for easier walking in some cases, but these are the trade-offs you will have to make.

Outsole

For the outsole, things are relatively simple—you want traction. The last thing you want while carefully lining up a shot is to lose your footing. The same goes for any time you are trekking through the woods with gear on your back—being crushed by the weight of a falling human body isn’t exactly something your average camping stove is designed for. An outsole with good grip is essential for any jaunt into the wilderness, and hunting is no exception.

If you are hunting around regions that tend to be wet or are near rivers, you may also want to look for boots with anti-slip outsoles, as this may help with things like slick stones.

Toebox

There is nothing special to look for in the toebox area other than comfort. Don’t get a pair of boots that crush your toes together, but you don’t want them rattling around in a cavernous boot, either. It can help to look for boots with reinforced toe areas, even if it is just extra leather. That part of your boot will be taking a lot of abuse during a typical hunt.

Few parts of our body have to endure quite as much abuse as our feet, and as an extension of that, our shoes. We are continually moving around, putting all of our weight on these two relatively small bits of appendage, and relying on our footwear to keep these vital pieces of anatomy safe from injury as a result of scuffs, knocks, and heavy items being dropped on them.

For people who work in industrial settings, whether it be moving items in a warehouse, fabricating high-end metal structures, or anything in between, the need for adequate protection of your feet is increased significantly. Not only does your job rely on your being able to get around, but there is an increased risk of injury as a result of heavy things crushing your poor toes. Fortunately, there is a type of footwear designed for this very reason.

What are Steel Toe Cap Shoes or Boots

Safety shoes can come in a variety of forms, but the general goal is to protect your feet from the outside world through the use of appropriate materials. Of course, it is wildly impractical to have footwear that can protect your feet against all eventualities when you don’t need it since any safety measure will inevitably lead to at least a minor compromise in comfort. For example, boots that are 100% waterproof may be necessary when there is a high risk that you’ll be wading around in shallow water, but as innovative as the technologies behind waterproof boots have gotten, it is still not possible to make them as breathable as non-waterproof boots. So waterproof boots might not be ideal for work where the floor is dry, and the climate is hot, as you may end up roasting your feet in their own juices. Other safety aspects include tougher materials for added protection that make the boot more cumbersome, additional ankle support that makes the boot less agile… and steel toe caps.

Steel toe caps are, as the name suggests, a cap that protects your toes from impact. The “steel” part of the name is somewhat outdated, as it is now possible to toe caps in other materials, such as composite, but the concept remains the same, and steel is still commonly used for this purpose.

Toe caps cover the entire front section of the boot, from the outsole to a point a little behind where your toes meet with the rest of your foot. Proper work-rated steel toe cap footwear will be certified to ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) requirements or an equivalent in other countries.

A steel toe cap will not snap or shatter but may bend if enough force is applied to it. As a general rule, however, if enough force is being applied to your steel toe cap to crush it, you’ve probably got more significant problems than your toes. The exact makeup of a toecap may be affected by the type of work that is being done. For example, for boots that are rated for electrical hazard protection, steel may be avoided in favor of something non-conductive.

1. Timberland PRO Powertrain Sport AT EH Shoe

Timberland has made a name for themselves with high-quality boots over the years, and the Powertrain Sport AT EH continues that tradition. One of the most distinctive features of the Powertrain Sport AT is its appearance, which is almost sneaker-like. This is in part thanks to the nylon upper section, which is available in a range of different styles as is abrasion-resistant, so you don’t have to worry about that distinctive print pattern coming off.

Inside there is a mesh lining that features anti-microbial treatment, which helps to keep your feet fresh and odor-free. Somewhat unusual for a steel toe shoe, the Powertrain Sport AT is quite light, which makes it ideal for people who are moving around a lot, as the lightness coupled with the low cuff means you are less likely to get fatigued walking around all day. Of course, that lightness and low cuff come at the expense of some durability and ankle protection, but every product is designed for a purpose, and this one is designed for agility and ease of movement.

One final thing to note is that the show is rated for electrical hazards, making it ideal for electricians.

2. Caterpillar Men’s Converge Steel Toe Industrial Shoe

Sticking with the almost sneaker-like form factor, the Caterpillar Men’s Converge Steel Toe Industrial shoe moves into more familiar work boot territory with a leather upper and thick laces held in place by metal eyelets. There is additional support around the ankle and toe area to protect against abrasion and scuffing, while the outsole boasts slip-resistant materials that provide excellent traction.

Inside, Cat’s Ease footbed provides shock absorption to reduce fatigue from those long workdays, and the overall shoe is very lightweight, further reducing the strain on your feet when wearing them. The Converge is rated for electrical hazards and is a very agile shoe that looks great and offers plenty of protection. Like the Powertrain Sport AT, it doesn’t provide much ankle support, however.

3. KEEN Utility Men’s Flint Low Steel Toe Work Shoe

KEEN’s may only have one boot on our most comfortable steel toe shoes list, but it is most certainly a worthy entry. This shoe makes use of both nubuck leather and mesh to find a nice balance between durable protection and flexible comfort. As the name suggests, it is a low shoe which, while perhaps not being as supportive around the ankle as a full work boot, makes for very comfortable wearing and plenty of freedom of movement.

It is especially suited to work that involves climbing on things like ladders, as the low profile and high-traction outsole make gripping the rungs easy. It has great arch support and a cushioned footbed that should make day-to-day use very easy on your feet. There is also odor protection to keep unpleasant smells away, and the sole oil and slip-resistant, as well as non-marking. A few different designs are available, including an intriguing “cascade brown/caramel cafe” design that almost looks as though it is fashioned from brass and rusty iron.

4. Timberland PRO Men’s Titan Safety Toe Oxford

Timberland’s second entry on this list is a little more conventional than the Powertrain Sport. Made from pliable leather, this boot offers plenty of protection over the mesh and nylon-based boots. Despite this extra protection, this shoe manages to remain a lightweight offering that won’t fatigue your feet as much as a full-size boot during long hours of use. Inside you will find a mesh lining, which should help to keep your feet well ventilated, and a cushioned footbed to keep your feet from fatiguing easily.

The synthetic outsole is slip-resistant to keep you on your feet even in less than ideal conditions, and the padded cuff provides a little extra comfort around the ankle. You can order these shoes in black or brown leather, and they both look great, although the toe area is a little prone to marking when it gets scuffed or scraped. That being said, light scuffing can usually be cleared up with a little polish.

5. Harley-Davidson Men’s Static Steel Toe Shoe

Moving back to a more sneaker-like design, Harley-Davidson brings us a shoe that would look as much at home in a skate park as it would in an industrial setting. Made from tough leather, the upper part of the shoe has an almost suede feel and appearance to it—the contrast of the black leather and the white laces and chunky sole complete the skater sneaker look.

Inside there is a cushion sock lining for added comfort and breathability. It also has moisture-wicking properties, which should help to keep your feet from getting too sweaty. The overall construction is lightweight and flexible, making it a great shoe for work where you are moving around a lot, as it will help keep your feet from becoming fatigued. Of course, as with most of the shoes on this list, the trade-off is less support around the ankle area. The only real downside to this shoe is there can be some sizing issues, so try them on first if you can, but certainly check what others are saying about there experiences with the sizes before purchasing if you can’t.

6. Reebok Work Men’s Sublite Work RB4005 Athletic EH Safety Shoe

As you might expect from a Reebok product, there is an air of sportiness to the RB4005. Like Harley-Davidson’s option above, the RB4005 could easily pass for a regular sneaker, though in this case, we are talking more about running shoes than skate shoes.

The upper is constructed from a mix of nylon mesh and leather, giving it plenty of durability while also making it more breathable and flexible than designs that are entirely leather. Inside there are moisture-wicking properties to keep your feet fresh, and the mesh construction allows for excellent heat dissipation. As you might expect from a steel toe shoe that resembles a running shoe, RB4005 are lightweight.

The rubber outsole is slip-resistant, and the shoe is rated for electrical hazards. There are a few designs to choose from, which are not merely a selection of color options, but very distinct choices, including an all-black design that is more in keeping with a typical work boot look.

It should be noted that these shoes tend to run a little on the large size, so you may want to do some research before ordering to make sure you wouldn’t be better ordering a size lower than you normally would.

7. Caterpillar Men’s Brode Steel Toe Work Shoe

Though the Brode Steel Toe Work Shoe is another shoe that looks like it would feel at home on a skate park, the leather construction gives away its workhorse nature. For these shoes, the different options you have to choose from are merely subtle differences in the color highlights.

Inside, you will find a cushioned footbed and breathable nylon lining to keep your feet comfortable and fresh, while the low cuff gives you plenty of freedom of movement and makes getting the shoes on and off easy. The rubber outsole should provide plenty of traction in most work situations, though this is a very flat shoe, so those in need of arch support may not be a fan. It is rated for electrical hazards, however, and while not waterproof, it is water-resistant.

8. Wolverine Men’s Rancher 10″ Square Toe Steel Toe Work Boot

The first high boot in our most comfortable steel toe shoes list comes in the form of Wolverine Men’s Rancher boots. As the name suggests, these are 10″ high boots that will offer plenty of protection for the ankle and lower leg. They are made from 100% leather with a synthetic outsole that is slip-resistant. The upper section even features a distinctive flame-like motif around the shaft.

Inside the boot, there is an ortholite cushioned footbed to keep your feet comfortable and prevent fatigue, while a steel shank design provides plenty of support and durability from the midsole. There is a moisture-wicking mesh lining to counter the enclosed nature of this style of boot, so you shouldn’t need to worry about your feet baking during long workdays.

This boot may have “rancher” in the title and look for all the world like a cowboy boot, but it is just as suitable for a hard day’s work in any outdoor setting.

9. Dickies Men’s Raider Steel-Toe Work Shoe

Possibly the most conventional-looking work boot on this list, the Dickies Men’s Raider work shoe is an excellent all-round work shoe that should serve you well in a variety of situations. It features a 100% leather upper with a synthetic outsole that is both oil and slip-resistant, as well as electrical hazard rated.

While not as high-cuffed as the Wolverine Rancher above, the Raider does offer a lot of ankle support compared to many of the offerings on this list, and the padded cuff will ensure that support is comfortable. And, speaking of comfortable, the innards of the Raider boasts a moisture-wicking fabric lining and cushioned memory foam insole to ensure your feet do not get fatigued too easily.

The Dickies Men’s Raider comes in two styles—wheat and black—with the wheat style taking on a softer, almost suede-like appearance. This is worth bearing in mind if you plan to take advantage of the oil-resistant nature of the outsole since oil will be much more difficult to clean from the wheat-colored boot.

10. Skechers Work Workshire – Relaxed Fit

The final shoe on our list of most comfortable steel toe shoes is another traditional looking work boot, this time from Sketchers. Like Dickies’ offering, the Workshire features a mid-height cuff with plenty of padding that should provide a good deal of ankle support.

The upper is made from 100% full-grain leather, while the outsole is made from rubber and is rated for electrical hazards, as well as being oil-resistant. Inside, your feet will be kept comfortable by the cushioned memory foam insole and soft fabric lining. And, if the insole is a bit too much, you can always take it out since it is removable.

The midsole features shock-absorbing properties that should help keep fatigue away. Another useful attribute in that respect is the weight. These boots are surprisingly light for a boot of this style, which should make a long day of hard work that little bit easier.

You can pick this shoe up in black or brown.

Steel Toe Boots Buying Guide

The key factors in buying comfortable steel toe shoes are largely the same as they are for buying any other work boot or shoe that is designed for heavier wearing than your typical footwear. Try to limit the features you seek out to the ones with practical use for your situation. As we mentioned at the top, additional protection always comes with some kind of trade-off, whether it be less breathability, heavier boots, or reduced mobility. That being said, don’t be afraid to get a feature you need because you are worried about these trade-offs. The innovation that goes into modern work boots means that even the areas where a boot falls a little short compared to other aspects are still more than serviceable. In other words, shoes that offer more protection maybe a little heavier, but it is not going to be so heavy that you can’t lift your feet!

One thing to note if you hope to find comfortable steel toe shoes is the space inside. Not every shoe sizes the same, but with a steel toe cap, there is no flexibility in the surrounding material. At least not around the toes. That means you will have to make sure you get a boot that has the right amount of room for your feet.

Another essential factor to consider is the overall comfort over the long term. If you are buying steel toe boots, the chances are you are planning to work in them, and if you are working in them, you will be wearing them a lot. If you try boots on and they feel a little tight, or they rub more than what can be attributed to just being new and a bit stiff, it might be worth sending them back before you have worn them in and can no longer return them.

Conclusions

Finding comfortable steel toe shoes doesn’t have to be difficult, but it can take a lot of work to find the ideal pair for your hard-working feet. Posts like this should help you narrow things down without having to trawl through endless reviews, or even worse, try out countless pairs of boots yourself.

Once you have some experience with this kind of shoe, you can more easily judge what features you need and what you are comfortable with. For example, some people prefer extra ankle support to protect them from rolling their ankle, whereas others find too much ankle protection restrictive and difficult to walk around in. Unfortunately, these are questions only you can answer.

Regardless of the specific traits you want out of your boots, there are plenty of high-quality options for you to choose from. Just remember that when it comes to safety, it is not a good idea to cut corners. Don’t opt for the cheapest option just because it is less expensive. Which is not to say some great boots can’t be found relatively cheap.
