Does anyone know of a good work boot that isn't too high up the ankle? I have heard of Wolverine being a good boot, but I am not too sure. Thanks

So you might just want to eliminate whatever you slipped on. But yes, Wolverine are a decent brand. I've got a pair that are steel toed and loot just like a hiking shoe.

Many of the Red Wing boots are made in China....along with 99% of what all of us buy. __________________ Do you want it your way or the right way?
