I have to wear steel toe metatarsals. My boot of choice is the 15 inch Georgia Boot Co. Leather boots. $315 a pair and if they last over 6 months you are lucky LOL. I have tried Iron Age and Matterhorn but the Georgia's are by far the most comfortable plus a little more water protection from the 15 inch version.
