Doc Martens. Pretty much everyone in my store has started wearing them. I had gone through dozens of kitchen safe and no slip work shoes and no brands was as durable, comfortable, and had such variety in styles for the price you pay. Docs are expensive but not so much more then the kitchen safe shoes to make it unreasonable and my docs have lasted longer with me wearing them everyday, they are safer in the floors, and my feet don't hurt so bad I can hardly do anything but sit when I get home like they used to with all my other shoes.

are these work safe docs or are they just your normal docs? I have partners wear their normal ones and nearly die on the floors. I think they make work safe ones.

I didn't look specifically for work safe but I looked at non slip soles and oil resistant soles.

Used to wear docs but I switched to sketchers lol. My docs are too expensive for me to ruin them by spilling countless amounts of different liquids on them

seconding the sketchers. busted my knees countless times before them but haven’t slipped at all since.

Docs! They’re comfortable and durable and make me feel cute too which is a perk

tredsafe nonslip and water resistant shoes from walmart (loving the willow boots right now) great price and comfy!

I have sort of large and wide feet, so Skechers wide width, and the shoe itself is called Felton. Can usually get them bogo free or half off on Black Friday so I buy two pairs for the year at average about $35 each pair

Docs! They’re leather so you don’t get stuff spilled onto cloth shoes and having it go through, and the boots are good support for your ankles from running around all day

Crocs makes an enclosed rubber non-slip clog for food service. It's about $40 I believe.

Dansko Professional. I’m not too proud to get them much cheaper on Poshmark

The Liberty from Shoes for Crews - non-slip and water resistant and has lasted me a full year and still going strong

Im general nonslip is best, but I got a pair of Nike airs for Christmas (hand me downs from my mother) and the lightweightness of them is A1

Do we still get a discount at sketchers on work shoe's?
