    did the dot remove the proper foot wear rule? If not, judging by so many of these posts a few highways could be paid for if they started checking you guys.

    Any type of shoe or sneaker that I can kick off easy when I need to go back to the sleeper compartment. If you notice most drivers are wearing something like I do. Boots, especially cowboy boots, are not that popular any more.

    Sperry topsider boating shoes for everyday & driving. On n off couldn't be any easier, and good traction in all sorts of weather.
    And Bogs Rancher pull-on rubber insulated, steeltoed manure kickers for doing the dirty work.

    I've been wearing Red Wing work boots for 20 years, and always drove in them. I've been doing it so long now that I couldn't imagine wearing anything else.

    Besides, while others' mileage may vary, from where I sit there is absolutely no excuse for failing to at least attempt to keep a professional appearance on the road.

    New Balance for driving, and I keep a pair of Dickies steel toed boots for the yards that require them.

    Nope. We had a truck stopped in there? I hardly ever get pulled in there.
