[QUOTE="Of001, post: 2416245, member: 116075"] I've got a pair of the lacrosse for winters after I buggered my sorels on my first time out. I did end up buying carbon ceramic toes to glue on, light and good for kicking. They were an odd ball set at canadian tire for cheap and come to Just below the knee. Great for walking, suck in the truck. I know you said you don't want to wear anything in but this summer I took my redwing work boots out. I won't take anything else. "a good set of leathers will do you, and your kids well" my grandfather said to me once, he was buying me my first boots, gloves, and hat. I still have the gloves and hat, shoes were size 5 so they went to the nephew. The red wings have always fit well and have a huge line up. A co worker has worked his through 10 soles over 35 years and has more "3 peaks and a valley over" storeys than I have brass. Ive got the lineman versions. Steel toes yes but there are other versions with carbon or nothing, low ankle to mid calf. I wax mine every 6mo and set them on a heater over night. My basement flooded 6in last year and they sat in sewage for over a week. Still dry inside and after a quick wash dont smell in the least. [/QUOTE]
