Guys, when choosing your boot, just remember a few things:

1) Electrically insulated should be chosen only if absolutely nesescary. It usually does not have the same oil resistance non slip, comfort, or durability of those that are not (personal experience)

2) The new gold standard for "steel toe" is not steel but plastic. If your foot is crushed with a steel toe, the steel will crimp your flesh, but the plastic will deform and crack, but will release your foot.

3) The metatarsal guard is really uncomfortable, and you could forget about driving in it... again only if nesescary.

4) Consider buying a Dr. Scholes inner for your boot. I don't know if this affects the ansi safety approval but it makes it a lot more comforable for me

5) Odour eaters.. I put them in when I am not using them, but I use mine like twice a month. Dunno if these comfortable.

Good tips there Bhagian, especially 1-4. I too use a Dr. Scholes after I had that bout of plantar fasciitis.

You can check by model:

I think wolverene is either safety toe or composite.

Do a search and check the suppliers. SSL carries red wing as far as I know, and there are many safety stores in point and marabella also.

Red Wing work shoes, got mines from the Red-wing Store in IAL on the Cross and they have a branch in Pt Lisas. Very comfi and it looks nice with my dress trousers.

App. they are the official retailers for the product. The sales girl said that have safety clothing, with the same properties like nomex but much softer. I need to make a pass in the Pt Lisas store to check it. If any one currently using it, can you post some feed back.

After visiting the doctor myself, apart from the Voltarin he prescribed, I did these series of exercises for 2 weeks:



This, combined with the Dr. Scholes and trying to keep off my foot as much as I can eventually gave me an ease-up after 2 weeks.
