These Dr. Martens Steel toe boots are very nice.  They are comfortable for standing and walking for long periods of time.  My only complaint is the sole of the boot is not that durable in high temp. area.  I am learning to welding and I made the mistake of step on some hot slag which melted a small hole in the sole of the boot.  Beside this I would recommend this boot for any conditions but except for high temps are involved.
