Hey fellow brewery workers and enthusiasts!
A crucial aspect of work attire is the boots we wear. Whether you’re brewing or cellering, having the right pair of boots can make a significant difference in comfort, safety, and overall productivity.
I’m curious to hear from all of you about the boots you use in a brewery setting and the reasons behind your choices. Are you a die-hard fan of a specific brand, or do you prefer certain features that cater to the brewery environment? Perhaps you’ve found a particular style that strikes the perfect balance between functionality and comfort? Share your insights and experiences!
Cheers! 🍻
Huh. That sucks. Maybe you got a lemon. I’ve known laborers in construction that manage to get more than one season out of them, which is impressive for any boot. Good luck on your hunt.
Another boot that’s waterproof but not a rubber style is the Thorogood American Heritage. I wear these daily in heavy construction and have stood ankle deep in water without a leak, expensive, but extremely comfortable, wedge soles are like walking on clouds. Also union made in the US.
I think it’s because it was the steel toe version. Which I personally prefer. I’ve heard they last forever from other people. I had a pair of mucks that lasted me over a year, which others have said didn’t last them long.
Thorogoods seem pretty solid I might give them a go.
