Steel Toe Boots

My neighbor had just gotten home from work one day when he saw me sitting outside on my patio. He looked so tired. He walked over and sat down to rest before going inside to shower and start making dinner. I noticed how heavy his boots looked and you could even see the leather had worn off in a small place on the toe of one his boots. All I saw under the leather at that worn off place was steel. I asked him if it was required that he wore steel toed boots on his job, which he said it was. I thought he would have to pay a very high dollar for them, since they were steel toed boots instead of just regular boots. He said that he usually goes to the same store to buy them every time he needs new ones and the price wasn’t very much higher and sometimes no higher, depending on the brand or if the store was having a sale on boots. He did say that steel toed boots were heavier in weight when wearing them and it sometimes caused him to have sore feet and legs by the end of a busy day. I often wondered if there was a huge price difference in steel toed boots, so I now knew. They were much safer too, in protecting his feet while on the job.
