Which are the best walking shoes to wear on delivery?
I have ordered some walking shoes from royal mail uniforms but they still havent turned up even though I was told they were in stock.
Also ordered an xs in the fleece but sent me small 3 times in a row but thats another story!
Anyway, I am being forced to buy my own shoes but dont want to pay over the odds because my other trainers do get really dirty from the bike.
What do other posties wear and which is the most comfortable?
many thanks

As far as comfort goes i have to say that my new Magnams are very comfy
However they dont grip so well and folks recon they fall apart quickly :sad
Rows of houses all bearing down on me........I can feel their blue hands touching me.......All these things in all positions.........All these things will one day take control..........
