Re: Shoe recommendations
You get a whole range of Magnum boots online. I'm sure you could find an equivalent there?

Re: Shoe recommendations
I find the banderas ok. Much better than the anvils and the easyflex are too narrow. Need to order a size up from what you normally wear. I wear my own, lighter, non waterproof shoes in the summer though.

Re: Shoe recommendations
Just be aware that if you ordered the new uniform range, they have pinched your shoe allocation for the new trainers which aren't going to be available until next year. I've only had 1 pair ordered in Jan this year, with the new trainers showing as the other.

Re: Shoe recommendations
RM Storm Flex Mid Non Safety Boots about the nearest to Magnums that I have found.
The soles are a bit thinner and they are a job to get your feet into, otherwise not too bad.
Definitely feel it after having pressed the clutch down about 300 times a day.
