boots

I need a new pair of boots. My worn-every-day HD steelcaps are getting a bit soft round the edges- the lining's worn out, the soles are smooth and one of them's starting to split, the steel's poking through the leather in a couple of places.

But I'm torn: what to replace them with? a few options:


Logging boots.
+ Tough, strong, durable. Horny as all hell.
- Brown. And would you LOOK at the price?!?!

Update: NZ Safety, $332.33. Loggershop.co.nz: $276.75. Profarm farming suplies: $249.00. Sold! Should arrive on Tuesday... :-)



Firefighter's safety boots
+ Tough & durable, fireproof, black.
- not quite as horny as the logging boots.


General-purpose high-top safety boot
+ good styling, love the red sole
- all those eyelets would soon piss me off


+ More street-oriented sole, kinda good looking, black.
- not keen on the shape of the toe, looks a bit cheap...

Opinions?

But then I couldn't bring them to SF- I'd get mugged in an instant!!!
