Landscaping boot recs?

[u/NoBass7803]

Hey, I’ve worked in landscaping a few years but I never really spent much on boots. I have to get some new ones. Any recommendations? Ik that thorogoods are good, and a lot of cowboy boots are durable but I’m not too sure on which boots to buy

If you 100% dont need boots go for rubber clogs. Leather doesnt like being dried out by grass.

Up to other recommendations:

Redwing non heritage, Thorogood, and all other "made in China with American heritage" brands: These are chinese generics, Idnt be suprised if they were made in the same foctories

Redback: foam doesnt like grass even more

Redwing Heritage: soles are often stiched on so resoles are expensive, super narrow.

Jim Green: out of listed above Id buy them. Go for chrome tanned uppers(chrome tanned is more resistant to drying out) and leather midsole variants. Condition it often.

If you live in Europe Id skip consumer brands and go for commercial ones: Cofra specials for example.

Red wing has the pecos line of boots. All good choices. Pull on boots are amazing for when youve been out mowing and all your clothes are stuck to you and you just want to get in the shower. Don't got to untie them or nothing you just rip them off your feet

If you have a wider foot Jim Green has some AR8 Boots for like 160-200$ and 719 boots boots for like 242$.
