• Engineer/surveyor etc? Aren't Rigger boots still the go-to?

    If not, whatever flavour of £40 boots are in stock will be fine for occasional use (they're largely all rebrands).

    If you want boots made by the people who's name is on them, look at Magnum. I paid £80-odd for my Summer pair and around £110 for the Winter ones.

    £180 is ridiculous unless you have specialised requirements.

  • Site electrician. Needs composite sole and toe rather than metal, above ankle cover. I want waterproof and not overly heavy (but non metallic toe and sole plate go a long way with that).
