Did you know that when required to wear protective footwear, you have options beyond traditional steel toe shoes or steel toe boots? Composite toe safety shoes & work boots are an excellent alternative. Composite toe safety shoes are often lighter than steel toe shoes and provide the same levels of protection.

First impression

it’s looks good, far better than reebok mid top safety shoe. Light compare to that.

Not metal free - but still pretty great !

Pretty decent shoes. They are a bit warm vs. an open mesh safety shoe. 1 or 2 day break in period. The foot bed is pretty flat. So don’t expect great arch support. The Timberland insoles provided aren’t spectacular. I’ve been using the Form mouldable insoles. Probably switching those for my go to Dr. Scholl’s type for some cushioning and arch support.
Overall I do like them though.
I would say they fit to true size or maybe just a tad small. I’m typically a size 15 and in some brands a 14 works. These are 15’s and they were snug for the first few days.

Now for the one thing I will fully complain about…. I have to pass through a metal detector at work. And although these were advertised as “metal free” the shank in the sole is 100% metal.

Just be aware.

My work around is having a dedicated walking in/out pair of boots and wearing these shoes when I’m inside.

Thank you for your review, Stu!
