• You can buy perfectly suitable rigger boots for £30. I value my feet more than that. And I like nice boots…

  • rigger boots have no ankle support which makes them unsuitable for a fairly wide range of activities.

    They are not permitted on site where I work.

  • I’d never wear rigger boots if I could avoid it! Like my shoes snug and precise if I’m going to be balancing on stuff. Hence not minding buying nice boots.

    I think the point about boots is that they can provide them, or you can get £30 off a pair you actually want. Everywhere I’ve worked has offered boots that are suitable for free or some cash towards - no one ever takes the free boots.
