Reply to comment by MrRabidBeaver in Redback boots, only a year old but they’ve seen a lot and are still the comfiest shoes I own by FattyBolgerIV

Thanks so much for this very helpful info! I'm an avid gardener, so I'm always on the hunt for a really good boot and will give Redbacks a try! Any model in particular? Which ones did you get? ❤️

I have to use steel/composite safety boots, so those are the only ones that can speak about.

I’m hard on them at work, so I can definitely vouch for them. I’m sure the other styles are just as good.

Best of luck.

Edit: At the same time, Blundstone warranty department is definitely amazing. The replaced it without issue. So there is that at least. But I still prefer my Redbacks.

Although I’m sometimes working with machinery I opted for the soft toe version which I think is called the nevada, I’d definitely recommend soft toe if your just gardening as it’s comfier for constant crouching and whatnot. I’ve had cows standing on mine as well as extreme heat and they’re fine

Yes! THIS! I like the look of the one you sent. It really helps to get a model recommendation. You got exactly what I'm looking for, even the part where sometimes cows stand on yours (in my case, horses!) Merci beaucoup 💕

On my end, your "Nevada" model is showing up as "Great Barrier" instead (I'm in France on the Redback website.) But tomato, tomahto, that's the one I'll be ordering! I'm just so glad that they produce my size in Women's. I'll have to order their very smallest! Thanks again!
