What to Look for in A Good Pair of Work Boots

August 17, 2018UncategorizedBy admin

Work boots are one of the most important pieces of safety equipment you can wear at a construction job. The right pair of work boots should be safe and comfortable, and there are plenty of things to look for. Keep reading to learn more about how to find the right work boots. 

Safety Features 

Keeping you safe is one of the most important functions of good work boots. There are plenty of things you can accidentally step on at a construction site, but the right pair of boots won’t allow those situations to cause injuries. 

You’ll want a pair of boots with safety toes. You should look for something with steel toes, aluminum toes, or composite toes. Steel toed boots are the most popular for construction and they are the heaviest and most compact. Steel can also conduct temperature and your feet won’t be exposed to the insert. You’ll also want a pair of work boots with a puncture plate in case you step on a sharp object like a nail. Look for a pair of boots that are slip resistant and that have an outsole grip for climbing. 

Comfort and Construction 

Being on the job all day you’ll need a pair of boots that are comfortable and well-constructed. Your boots should be waterproof and well insulated to keep your feet dry and warm. They should be well made so you don’t have to worry about them falling apart and you don’t have to replace them very often. Your work boots should stand the test of time and be able to stand up to various conditions.
