Rubber boots
Who makes the most comfortable rubber boots. I see deck hands wearing theirs all day but mine are from the farm store, I have to wear them to clean soggy horse corrals, and they are murder on the feet. I know there has to be a brand that people can work in all day without feeling like their feet are being mangled. Thanks in advance.

is there plenty of toe room? I always have a problem with one foot not fitting right so I can keep them on very long. I'll give those boots a look.

yeah, I always have to add insoles to everything, many years of working on my feet has caused my arches to fall. So good support is first. Thanks for the recommendation.

THESE!!
https://fishshop.shimano.com/product...=1555705036812 I've spent many 18-24 hour days on my buddy's Pilothouse hunting for bluefin cows on both rough and smooth conditions. Used to use Xtratuff boots. But if the seas are rough, I'd get lots of foot pain from slamming on the swells, especially on the big-toe. These Shimano boots are hands-down the most comfortable boots I've used! The padding on the bottom is super thick and has space underneath, so if you get splashed and water gets in, your feet above the water and stay dry (for the most part). I HIGHLY recommend trying them out. The only downside is that they run a little bit on the large size and they don't offer half-sizes. But I don't mind the extra room. Never felt like they were going to fall off when running up to the bow or hopping up on the roof with the binos to check for birds |

shimano's
if you buy them large do they pull your socks off? My farm boots always work my socks off and they are the correct size.
