I do like the Hiax boots...they are not stationwear boots, but I think they are very comforatable. i have the inserts in the bottom for more support, so they are even more comforatable then they normally would be. At first I didnt think I was going to like them, I am a Thorogood kind of guy...but from now on, it will be Hiax

I would rate the Globe and the Morning Pride as my favorites.  Although given the choice I would go back to Bristol turn out gear in a heart beat.

Jonathan,

How do you like the Honeywell helmet?  I have only seen 1 and had it on my head for a brief moment.  It seemed VERY light.

Im really enjoying it so far Don. I have the pull down visor on it but you can switch it out with the flip down visor if thats what you prefere. Its a good weight not to heavy on the head and the quality is top notch.

Don not like the Veridian gear, it is cheap and doesn't last. We will be looking at Globe/Cairns next time around.
