Dewalt Apprentice Boots

[Daley]

Been having a nightmare with my gear recently, everything seems to be giving up on me! So now my boots are knackered... Lace hole has torn so now i can't tie them properly, i've been looking at replacement boots and can only find them for £50-60. Is that the normal price or does anyone know where i can get them cheaper? Want to stick with the same ones as they've lasted me around 18months! Any help is much appreciated

Are you self employed? the reason I ask is shouldn't your employer provide PPE for you?

We get to choose boots from a cheap catalogue but i'd rather stick with what i know, working in them 12 hours a day can't be wearing snide shoes haha

Ask your employer to give you what the boots they supply cost and pay the res yourself for some decent boots I'm sure they would say OK

same here mate, the trousers and boots he supplies are crap so on one wears them.

i wear snickers because getting 28 waist and 32 leg is hard in most other brands.

dewalt apprentice boots are good and cheap.

ive got a pair of dr marten tamaracks and they are very comfy and waterproof, im gutted i can see the toecaps now.

i swapped to haix trekker pro's but they will be out of your price range.

dont pay less than £40 on boots most cheaper ones either dont last or are very hard on your feet.

wait, go on screwfix first in future, put your post code in and it will tell you how many are in stock in nearest stores.

it is worth doing if your going for something specific
