    I think it's whatever you're comfortable in, as we all wear them away slightly differently

    I have these from Toolstation www.toolstation.com/m/part.html?p=99362
    The toes are non metal safety so the shoes are really light...plus they look quite funky. A year of doing hard flooringand still going strong.
