What footware does everybody wear?
« on: January 23, 2007, 07:17:38 pm »
Jst wondering what footware does everybody wear,and whats the most comfortable? ???

I`m wearing trainers at the mo but sometimes find them slippery when going up and down the ladder,due to grass being wet ect.

cheers steve ;D

Just bought a pair of Dewalt Challenger 2 boots a couple of weeks ago and gotta say they are the best I ever bought in terms of comfort and grip for ladder work.Just hope they last but they are Dewalt so should be tough....

I wear the Dewalt safety trainers, steel toe cap and good grip, had them for 2 years now and looking at them there is a few more years left in them.

Must say I do like Matts ;D thinking of getting a pair of them myself. ;)

Mostly I'll be wearing - a pair of walking shoes (I bought 2 pairs from Aldi 2 years ago @ £9.99 each and am on the second pair).

In really cold/wet weather I wear my Karrimor walking boots.

They're a bit heavier tho' - so it's a trade off.

I wear Scarpa hiking boots

Check them out.  Cost me £125!  But have lasted 5 years.  I need to get some new ones now.
They are the best I have ever bought.

Light, hard wearing, totally waterproof up to your ankles, and very warm too.  They really are the best.
Probably £150 now for a good pair, but if they last 5 years, that is £30 a year for the best warmth, dry, and comfort you can get.

A good bed and good shoes.

When you're not in one you're in the other ;)
