      Agree 100%.

      When I was rebuilding the house and effectively worked as a contractor for 12 months, I bought a pair of Screwfix (US brothers, read Home Depot) steel toes.  They cost me USD20, and I still use them now when I need a steel toe….

      Love, Imelda xxxx

            the hell….imageshack now charges? looks like I need to find a new place to upload my pictures. Any suggestions? Does the forum have the capability to allow us to upload directly? I know I am on a sneaker forum that has quite a large following and we are able to upload directly from whatever source (i.e. phone, ipad, whatever) just thought that might be a cool option if it is possible, but really dont know the first thing about that stuff so just a side suggestion spawning from my rant about imagequack

                It was actually Mclain…. I just jumped on the bandwagon.

                      When I was in investigations and we had new people that needed boots for inspecting food manufacturers, I always gave a simple answer they wouldn't believe: go to an Army/Navy surplus store and buy a pair of "jungle boots". $20, and I believe some of them are still using those boots six years later.

                      Food manufacturing plants is one of the craziest environments I can think of. They can be wet, dusty, hot, cold, slippery, and riddled with sharp objects on the floor, all in the same plant

                      I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose

                        I thought I may be the only one that felt that way about Alden. Can't believe the response they gave you, G. Maybe ill try to swing a pair of the rough out IH Vibergs this summer if the Danners dont end up working out. Im not ready to give up on them just yet.

                          Thought about White's? I have had good luck with my Alden's, but maybe I'll keep them for shorter walks to preserve them.

                            I've had good luck with my Indy's *** knock on wood ***. I don't like the way they feel on the MC so I only wear them on days I drive.

                              Well, Danner ended up doing alright. They rushed my boots through the shop and instead of a 6 week wait, it took 2 days. It looks like they even refunded my payment. On top of that, they're shipping them quick so I should have them for a hike this weekend. Hard to rant about that.
