Fit without pressure
Check the complete fit: heel hold, room through the forefoot and the feel across the instep. Painful pressure is a reason to reassess the fit, not a feature to tolerate.

Work Boots for Shin Discomfort
Shin discomfort should not be treated as a problem a new boot will necessarily fix. Check your footwear fit and speak with a health professional about persistent symptoms.

Make an informed choice
Look at the whole fit.
Changes in work activity, walking routes or footwear can be useful details to discuss during an assessment. Avoid continuing to work through worsening pain without advice.
Fit / function / your working day
What to look for.
Check whether your boots are worn, loose or uncomfortable. Choose the required protection and a comfortable fit; follow individual advice about any orthotic or activity change.

Support that suits you
Compare comfortable arch contact and underfoot cushioning. If you have a prescribed orthotic, ask your clinician how it should be used in the boot.

Protection for your work
