    Needing to upgrade my boot soon and I am trying to figure out which of these two boots I should drop the cash into. It’s between redbacks and redwing supersole 2.0. I’m a field tech apprentice and don’t want to waste my money. Which would y’all go with and why? Appreciate the advice

    Whichever feels the best on your feet. Look at reviews. If the ones that fit the best, have the best rep and cost $400 buy them and cry once.

    Hmm, sounds like my Lucchese boots.

    I’ve gone with the Ariat Groundbreaker Steel Toe Waterproof boot and love it.

    This is a purchase you really don’t want to scrimp on. You’re going to be in those 12-14 hours a day *every day*. Don’t be cheap.

    Whites. They’re handmade, lifetime warranty and after the boots break your feet in nothing beats them. No you don’t break them in they break you in lol
