Why you should invest in water proof shoes. (i.redd.it)

My sm was filling tea pitchers and didn't realize one of the nozzle was open and the hot water spilled INSIDE her boots. She had blisters like that for a week lol. It happens to all of us! Even veterans! Haha

Oh man! That stinks! Thankfully I’m off now til Monday so it’ll get some air and free from socks.

our store has adapted to the short black rain boot look. it’s the unspoken official shoe of our store, and it’s saved my life lots of times.

here ya go. honestly the best work shoes. and still cute so you can give em a little wipey wipey at home and wear them as a normal human to do human things

regzm 3 points 3y ago

are they comfy? i have super high arches and my feet hurt at work super easily

different_as_can_be 5 points 3y ago

ya know, they’re not the comfiest for 8+ hour shifts but otherwise they’re not the worst. a lot of my friends put insoles in them to help and they don’t complain!

Bistro crocs or shoesforcrews are good options

One reason I wear leather hiking boots. Also for the ankle support and comfortable soles.

Momisnotmyname 7 points 3y ago

I walk too fast and would alio and fall all the time of it wasn't for me shoesforcrews converse!

SirenGreenBean [OP] 6 points 3y ago

Yes I have ugly feet, don’t @ me.

Spilled an extra hot steamed milk on me today. 😬

The majority of my store has invested in Doc Martens, which I highly recommend.

ithotuknew 2 points 3y ago

I wear my waterproof Timbs for this exact reason! The amount of times I’ve spilled stuff on my feet is Too Damn High.

What kind of shoes were you wearing?

SirenGreenBean [OP] 2 points 3y ago

The absolutely wrong kind lol. Nah but they were some dr scholls worker shoes I got at famous footwear. They’re non slip for oil and water, just not water proof.

Kimbo185 2 points 3y ago

Aw that’s too bad, because your wearing what your supposed to and I’ve definitely worn ones like that too. I hope it gets better for you.

SirenGreenBean [OP] 2 points 3y ago

I actually think what happened was I was wearing skinny jeans and the coffee went behind the tongue of the shoe and directly onto my sock. Otherwise I think I’d have had a bigger/more blisters.

And no, they weren’t water proof so tech not appropriate for it. Live and learn 🤷🏻‍♀️ I touched the oven my second week of training so... i am not a bright green bean.

Kimbo185 2 points 3y ago

Oh no! Haha some are more clumsy than others. I always get scratched or banged up by different things there, especially the milk fridge racks. I remember a girl who was allergic to the sanitizer and would get blisters from it, like what a painful existence. :(
