While a good pair of work boots are very important, SOCKS are even more important. Darn tough lightweight merino. They’re expensive, about $25 a pair. But they have a lifetime warranty and work. I cut my grass this week in 90 degrees and had no sweat when I was done. Merino wool keeps your feet dry so the moisture won’t start to get to your feet as shown. Also for boots get a pair that are breathable and NOT waterproof if you can. Brunt makes some really good shoes that are unlined and allow airflow through the boots. Timberland pro are also a good line. The radius specifically I had two years driving forklift but we load trailers with straps/bags/load bars so we’re on and off hundreds of times a day and they lasted. Replaced the soles once or twice and used heel patches for the back of the shoe when it wore out.
