It’s really difficult to find good tough work shoes. I had a really well fitting tough pair of American made red wings and went off and left them in a hotel room. After a few failed purchases I ended up with a good pair from the red wing store. She really knew how to fit shoes and had to experiment with arch supports to get them right. I sure don’t wanna lose them. It is refreshing to find someone in a store that is capable of doing more than scanning a bar code and taking your money.
