I am starting an LTL job next week. I haven't had a job that required boots in decades. The job requires a fair amount of doc work with a forklift. I want something tough and durable that will last but is also comfortable. What do ya'll recommend?
What boots do you guys prefer?

I always go with Wolverine. They're relatively inexpensive, comfortable and last a long time. All the steel toes I have gotten have been pretty light weight too. If you have to get steel toe and shank, I am at a loss on that one.
Rideandrepair, Hammer166 and Truckingdaytrader Thank this. -
2nd on Wolverine. You can normally wear them all day, the first day, without issues you'd normally experience with new boots.
Truckingdaytrader, tscottme and Rideandrepair Thank this. -

Timberland pro direct attach. Available with and with out steel. Real comfortable and take a beating. I beat the snot outta boots and last a year and half before the tread is worn enough that water gets in.
Truckingdaytrader Thanks this. -
Redwing is my go to for work boots. I do like Keen too. I have an old pair of Sketchers boots that I keep around because I like them soo much.
YardMule89, Truckingdaytrader and RockinChair Thank this. -
Second the Timberland boots, very durable plus they are as comfortable on day one as they are a year later.
hope not dumb twucker and Truckingdaytrader Thank this. -
Redwings have always lasted longer than any other brand I've tried.
