heres a new one... what shoes do you wear?

[imageautodetail]

What kind of shoes do you wear while detailing? In the summer, I wear flip flops and in the winter or colder days in general, I wear Superbirki clogs( all rubber, they were actually what I wore when I was a chef and have just adapted them) the reason I ask is because all though the clogs are great because you can get them wet for the most part, they are comfy and I can slip them on and off if needed, but I wear a 14 and they do leave scuff marks if they brush up against door panels and what not, easilly cleaned off but just curious to if some one has a good suggestion

Fantastic support, water resistance. Excellent toe protection. (i am kneeling constantly I wear through toe caps in 1-2 months) The sole flange protects the toe from touching the ground when i am kneeling.



I am thinking of buying 2 sets of these in the future.

South 40 Bird Shooter - Hunting Boots, Upland Boots, Outdoor Gear, Custom Made Boots, Hunt Boot, Hunters Boot, Hiking Boot, Tracking Boots (http://www.russellmoccasin.com/boots_birdshooters/bs_signaturesouth40.html)

I buy premium boots. I learned long ago that a good set of boots sets you day up right. I usually buy my boots with the least aggressive sole as not to track when i am moving cars.

both the wc russell and whites are hand made to your feet. meaning you have some one properly measure your feet in about 9 places.

Asics Gel 1110s- love them winter summer w/e. As my running sneakers(Another pair of 1110s and a pair of Nimbus 9s) get worn more, they will be demoted to detailing kicks and so on and so on...

I wore hand made White boots for years as a heavy equipment operator. Very good boot. The uppers last longer than the soles. Heels wear out rather fast as well. I hated sending them back to Spokane, Washington to get them repaired.



Now a days I wear Romeo`s. Nice comfortable slip on shoe with a vibram sole.

This for a year now

I hear you. That is why i need to order another pair soon. Birthday is coming up in feb so probably then. As for a day in day out detailing boot they fit the bill perfectly.

New Balance or Nikes

[imported_Surfer]

I have only a pair of Nikes for working out, otherwise nice flips flops, and couple different dress shoes for my business and when going out....though I`ve been known to wear flip flops to my office if I`m not meeting anybody.

Crocks and/or VANS checkered slip-ons.

I just wear an older pair of athletic shoes. As I get new pairs, the older ones get relegated for detailing, the detailing ones become lawn mowing/yard work shoes, etc.

works great for getting those hard to reach spots :up

Red Wing boots for me. They say water proof, and they mean it. I stepped in the wash bucket once, and not a drop made it to my foot.
