    How are they walking on the snow/ice and around the fuel island when it's slippery?

    Get a pair of old school Tony Lama tennis shoes. Chrome tips with the zipper on the side. 4 foot log chain on your billfold and a truck stop tee shirt that’s about 3 sizes too small. Pull your britches down and show your butt cleavage. Let everyone know who’s the boss!

    Wesco® | Stock Boots


    If you need good foot protection and ankle support, these are the way to go. I have a pair that I bought twenty years ago and had rebuilt in 2015. They'll probably last me until I don't want to wear them any more. Check out Wesco's custom fit option. It's a little spendy but you get a pair of boots that actually fit right from day one. Try the custom fit and you'll never go back to store bought boots.

    They do good in wet conditions, snow is ok.
    Fuel spill or ice not the best.

    I wear slip on Sketchers. But I don’t unload in an environment that I have to wear boots to keep from crushing my feet. Tailgate off a dock with a dolly. If I had to deal with fuel or cow poop I’d wear boots. But I don’t wear the sandals unless I’m headed to the lake.
