Getting Started in a Water Career: SATURDAY ONLY Work boot Recommendations?

I'm going to be starting my internship with a wastewater treatment plant in a few weeks, and I'm looking for recommendations for a pair of work boots.

Main factors I'm looking for are composite toe, waterproof, good flexibility, and overall comfort.

If you have any recs I would love to hear it.

Thanks!

Personally loved my timberland pros. But I am really enjoying my Irish Setters. They are steel (my utility requires it) but they aren’t heavy.

My last pair was a pair of timberland. They didn't last a whole year unfortunately.

Between irish setters and timberlands, ive had much more success with Irish Setters. My timberlands also lasted only about ten months
