I guess it depends how cold your feet get. They aren’t steel caps so if you need to meet safety requirements they wouldn’t pass. Open a box in store and try them on in the shop, heaps of people were doing it.
Nah. Not a safety requirement. I just appreciated just sturdy they were and eventually got used to the added weight.
I’m not sure, I’ve been wearing those sorts of boots for quite awhile now and I don’t feel cold in them.
I did try one on quickly and it was ok but it was o my for a quick moment and the front of the boot sort of curls up a little I noticed.
Not sure how warm they would get after awhile of wearing them though.
