Before I go and buy just any old steel toe boot, I thought I'd ask; you people are so knowledgeable! I have never worn a steel toe boot, even though I was raised on a farm. We just wore leather boots; luckily, I never had a foot injury. But, cutting firewood, hmmm. I would prefer to have pull-on boots because they are easier to put on and take off, rather than lace-up, but I'm open. Anyone have any preferences or tips? With cutting wood around here, I would also think a bit of waterproofing would be good.
EDIT: I am thinking that these (high) prices that I see are a bit too much for me, since this would be limited use. I am hoping to find a lower price boot that I like. If not, I'll just have to pay up. I love my Ariat Wellington roper style boots, I will see if they make a steel toe version. Oops, I just looked at Ariat steel toe; they are pretty pricey.
