I have the worse time finding shoes that fit. I need wide sizes. I usually end up with cheap sneakers. I dont need steal toes anymore but water proof or resistant would be nice.
These are what I wear now. I tried cheap WallyWorld boots, but they hurt pretty much from the get-go. And they didn't last.
These are made by a Canadian company(not sure if the boots are Canadian or Chinese made, I'll have to look) called JB Goodhue. I bought them at a local Safety Supply outlet. They are EEE width, and the most comfortable steel toed boot that I've ever worn.
Working in a pulp mill you have no choice but to be working in or near water. These are very water resistant, and treating them makes them almost waterproof.
For $160, they last well, I got almost 3 years out of the last pair.
