Anvil footwear

Post by **eastie** » 12 Sep 2016, 14:41

Been working at RM for 12 years and never a problem with footwear until I have been given these Anvil boots .
My heels are on fire when I finish my round and cant put any weight on the heels and they feel bruised.
Anyone else had this problem?

Yes they're sh*t, my feet hurt like hell after wearing them for a five hr walk, the yds have a bit softer soles and the grip is excellent even on snow and ice as opposed to anvils which are nearly as bad as the previous cat trainers.

I've worked for RM for 28 years and never had any problem with footwear until recently when i had some Anvil shoes. My feet were covered with blisters after wearing these Anvil shoes. In the end I told my manager I couldn't wear them and he ordered some Magnum shoes instead.

The last six months or so I've really suffered with my heels aching, especially when getting out of bed in the morning.
Low and behold, I have Anvils, never had a problem before except for the obvious tired feet.
Time for a change I think.

The Anvils gave me foot ache and shin flints, even after trying to wear them in. The YDS ones are so much more comfortable, even if they do look like flippers on large feet.

The clue is in the name Anvil - it's like strapping two large, heavy, hard wearing dollops of metal to your feet. Apparently the next line of RM footwear has been codenamed crucifixion.
