Where can I find good Steel Toe boots for a Diabetic?
My dad has diabetes and he’s a welder. He has trouble finding work boots that don’t take a toll on his feet. Is there a place that sells a good variety of steel toe boots that provide the cushioning a diabetic needs? I did a web search and found a few sites that carried a few but they were all lace up boots which are not what my dad had in mind. Maybe I’m not doing the right search or maybe there’s a retailer who provides this. Anyway, I’d be very thankful.
Is it safe to wear steel toed boots?
I’ve entered a police explorer program and I need to bye boots as a part of my uniform. I was told by my captain not to wear them because if I’m out on the street directing traffic or something and someone runs over my feet in a car then the weight of that car will cut my toes off.
Is that true or not?
But I heard that they do protect you; for instance, my dad when he was a policeman said that he was moving a washing machine while wearing steel toed boots and it fell and he didn’t feel a thing. Also, I think the chances of a car running over your toes is very minimal and the chances of anything else hitting your feet (that steel toed boots could protect you from) is high. What do you think?
I have to wear steel toed boots for work for work this summer…?
And they end up messing up my toenails, scrunching them up, and grinding at them. Most of my shoes do this, but the steel toed boots are the worst. Is there anything that I can get to help prevent this. I can’t get new boots because they’re all the same and they’re incredibly expensive anyway, about 0. My Dad has worn steel toed boots for work for nearly 20 years and his toes now have strange absesses and deformities. We both have Morton’s toe, the second toe is larger than the first. What can I do?
Are steel toed boots okay for street motorcycle riding?
I remember my dad saying something about steel toed boots but I forgot =\ I went and checked out all the stores and got a pair with good ankle support but they also have steel toes. Would this interfere with the shifter or anything? I figure if anything my dirt bike shoes have the steel toes too. Any opinion?
