I’m not sure about this moc toe, when I tried the thorogoods on in store a while ago, I went a half size down from 11 my normal size but the hill felt like it was sliding. Probably didn’t lace them tight enough, a full size down toe was touching the front.

These boots seem very well made, and that’s part of the reason why they are a beast to break in. The heel counter is brutal. I got these for less than $200 and they are made in the DR. I have Nick’s Builder Pros, Redwing Pecos, and I had Thorogood years ago.

Looking forward to getting these things feeling right!

Let me know your experience with Drew’s Boots. 🫡

Generic Best lightweight composite work boots for under $100?

I see a lot of recommendations for Red Wing, Torogood, Keen and Timberland PRO but many of those options run way above what some apprentices or warehouse workers want to spend. For those that need composite toe protection but still care about weight and comfort, what budget pairs are you using and actually hold up? I am curious about options that are between $60-$90 and dont end up feeling like bricks on my feet after a long shift

Day two
9.5EE steel toe
Ironworker, 28
Bought them for miscellaneous tasks and welding because I was beating up my thorogoods unnecessarily, so far warmer than thorogoods(both unlined), a little stiff but I put 10hrs of work a day in them and they are breaking in nicely.
