Nice.

Blundstone makes half decent CSA boots. Switched to these recently, better for indoor work. Have considered Chippewa or RW, but too expensive for shit that I'm just going to ruin.

My job gave me a voucher for red wing work bouts and I went for the steel toe mocs, they work great. I am not a huge fan of boots with a large heel, I find that when climbing up large pieces of equipment or doing farm ops in general it can be uncomfortable.

These are my everyday work boots. I love them, I've had them for almost 4 years and they're still holding up well.

Working blue collar is hell though if you want to be /fa/. Anything nice you buy simply can't be worn to work, so it starts to feel really futile to even try. When you show up in a $400 outfit and people know you work construction you just look like an idiot.

I've been using my Austrian meme boots for vineyard work this season. They're pretty nice once broken in and with gel insoles. They get muddy as fuck though. That can't be good for the leather. I've had Palladiums that haven't lasted half a season and Nike SFBs that lasted a season and a half. Hopefully the para boots will last the whole season. I've found that I don't notice much difference between canvas/special breathable boots and full leather in the heat. It's not like my feet really get that hot I guess.

You guys are fucking retards lol, Redwings would suck for any actual physical labour job (this is coming from a guy that owns a pair, they are good looking shoes, not disputing that)

Also I guarantee that if you're working manual labour, absolutely none of your coworkers will give a fuck about whether your boots are "/fa/." Just get whatever has steel caps and is the cheapest.

You idiots are aware that the Red Wing Heritage line is just that, a single line of their products, right? They make an entire line just for hipsters just like they make an entire line for blue collar workers.
