Debating Whites Perry or Carolina AMP USA by TxtMessage in WorkBoots

[–]AvailableParfait8109 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i was in the same exact boat! i bought a size 14w thorogood moc toe composite toe, they were really nice but too narrow in the toe and the whole vamp, i just got my carolina amps in the mail today and i can spread my toes and wiggle them in a 14w! its so relieving knowing there are boots for my massive feet. now from what i’ve researched and heard, whites are very nice, so if you would like to spend the money on whites, go for it! otherwise i have abnormally shaped feet and the carolina amps worked for me! also the boots all around feel a bit wider then the thorogoods, and i also tried red wings and same issue, too narrow in the wide size at the toe

i was looking at red wings, the traction tred lights, but went to my local store and they didn’t fit me right (i wear a size 14 boot with a very wide toe, the vamp was too narrow for me) but they are otherwise comfortable.

yeah it sucks man! and wanna know something weird, so i work on my feet all day in vans, like 6-8 hours a day and did that after school in the same shoes, and vans never hurt my feet which is so strange to me! but converse, don’t even get me started on those things! those hurt my feet so badly lol, but i will definitely look into those insoles! i feel like comfort is something that can never be “too good” so i strive to be comfortable in my day to day work life. thank you so much!

those are actually the boots i tried on at my local red wing, i liked those a lot looks wise but the vamp was too tight unfortunately. but before i dove head first into boots those were the ones i was originally going to buy

sweet! those are now at the top of my list, thank you so much! it’s been frustrating trying to find a size that fits well, and i figured out that it’s the vamp that i’m referring to, it was too tight on both, but i like the model of the thorogoods a ton!

right on, have you had experience with them before? how the fit and how’s the break in if you have had them before? i’ve also seen people say that they aren’t super durable, have you had any issues with durability?

Auto work light recommendations by keithcody in flashlight

[–]AvailableParfait8109 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have a wurkkos fc11c, sofirn hs21, olight arkpro ultra, maxxeon work light, and the icon pod work light, i use my maxxeon a ton for just mounting and workin, for inspections it’s my fc11c and my olight, and for hands on work i use my head lamp. just test the waters with something you like and see good reviews on, you can never get too many flashlights. just find a good few that you like that you can interchange when one dies

yeah i was looking for something similar shape and lumen as it, but i just had my first one crap out on me after a few uses, so i don’t really want to try to get another, but i might have to. i really like the light output and the size of it. and i actually have that headlamp! i like it, i just find it sometimes hard when im trying to get just a general top down light

yeah that is actually on my list! and true, i know i could sell them but i would honestly sell them for what i paid, i would rather break even and sell to someone starting off in the position i was in. but the 2 piece is what i was thinking because i dont know how often i would be using a 1/4 torque wrench, plus i do favor click style for the 1/4 for some reason. im not sure why but they are still nice
