HOW TO FIND THE PERFECT WORK BOOTS FOR LANDSCAPING

When you’re in a tough, physical, outdoor industry like landscaping, having the best work boots is much more than a work essential—it’s something that can make or break your day. When you can trust your boots to stand up to wet weather, cold temperatures, machinery hazards and all the wear and tear you throw at them, you know you can focus on the work instead of your feet.

If your landscaping business operates year-round, no matter the weather, look for these 5 features to make sure you get the best work boots for landscaping.

Outsole Grip

Work boots with a rugged outsole grip are a safety essential for almost any physical outdoor job. Anti-slip outsoles help prevent potentially devastating slip-and-fall accidents in wet and icy conditions. Plus, better traction is a big help on uphill climbs and on soggy terrain.

Waterproofing

Working with wet feet all day isn’t just miserable, it’s dangerous. You don’t have time to change your boots throughout the day if they get wet. That means that you need fully waterproof work boots you can rely on to keep your feet dry all day long.

Insulation

If you’re working year-round in landscaping, you need warm work boots for the winter months. Boots without insulation won’t keep you warm when you’re spending 8 – 12 hours out in the cold each day. Add a pair of thermal socks to your leather work boots for even more warmth.

Durable Construction

The best work boots for landscaping are a professional investment. So, naturally, you want the most bang for your buck. Choose leather work boots designed to take a beating that are meant to be used in your tough working conditions.

Comfort Features

In the landscaping business, you’re likely on your feet for hours at a time, working hard and moving around a lot. And if your feet are uncomfortable, that will take away your focus. The best work boots for landscaping have added support, moisture control and injury-prevention features.
