Can anyone give me an opinion on the slip resistance of the 430 outsole? I want to build a pair for work and need the best option for oily finished floors

[emceeQ]

I've got 430's on my work boots and I've liked them so far.  No oily surfaces, but they've been gripping well in caustic, water, and beer soaked floors.  Also seem to do decently well with ice/snow…

Thanks brother! I'm gonna ask Chris for his opinion as well and try to form some consensus. I know the 705 is like skates on our shop floors without a drop of oil

[emceeQ]

Welp, almost a month in and gotta say I love em…

[Giles]

I hardly recognise those…...

[emceeQ]

That's all thanks to a combination of beer, chemicals, and Michigan winter. They're getting a proper beating…

And for reference, this is a picture G took of them brand new...

[jdl1279]

Those look really good! Is that the oil tan leather?

[Giles]

Yep

Those buckles are soooo nice.

Loops shortened… Cause I don't have German sausagefingers @JCMx800 …

Oh boy, they are good looking boots.

[jdl1279]

I really like the brown stitching over the black leather, perfect for a work boot or an everyday pair for beating around

[jdl1279]

Getting there

Nice @jdl1279

Here is an update on my burgundy Boss boots

[neph93]

People need to stop showing me the domain leathers or I'll need to buy a pair.

[Bluegrass]

Jump in, the water is very warm!

[jdl1279]

Very!!

Also, the Veg is like butter after a bit of break in
