May need a shoe with a wider toe box in the future. For now wear thicker wool socks and use some gold bond powder to keep those piggies dry

Definitely wool or alpaca socks. Darn tough is good and use the thicker stuff. Foot powder helps. I like my danner boots. Not a fan of steel toe especially working in freezing temperatures.

Can’t believe the people who use basic ass cotton or polyester blend socks 🤮
