 |  Looking for new boots. My present boots and trainers are about creamed and am looking for a new pair. I usually buy cat's but the one's i like and are comfortable with are no longer available. Can anyone recommend a decent pair of trainers and boots (have to be steel t/c) If preferable the trainers will have ankle support (smashed mine several years ago and ankle support is preferable) Any price range up to £100.00 will be ok as i have found an expensive pair lasts a lot longer than a cheep £30.00 generic pair, With less sweat probs and lots better comfort. |

| Re: Looking for new boots. Mine are V12 Powerwear boots. Very trendy (like CAT sand boots) and about £50. I am fussy as have size 11 feet which are broad. Trouble is I just keep tripping over them! I go through about one pair a year. |

| Re: Looking for new boots. have you tried De Walt Apprentice ? The most comfortable, lightweight, slimline boots i've ever worn. Discovered them when I was working on scaffolding (fitting alarms!!) and they're the only DeWalt product I'd buy |
