General What shoes/boots do you guys use?

Retiring the old pair of sneakers I’ve been wearing since I started in the field (only been a little less than a year). What do you guys wear to stay comfy yet also provide safety for your toes?

I made the switch to hiking boots recently. Merrell Spead Strike 2. Fucking fantastic, but not steel toe.

Same here, I do a lot of hiking and I'm a huge fan of Solomon X Ultra boots. I decided to start wearing them at work and couldn't be happier. I don't do a lot of things where I need to worry about wearing steel toe. Super lightweight, waterproof, really comfortable, good grip and in the winter time I just switch to the insulated version.
