Hi Peter,
I switch to shoes for the summer. I use good cool temperature socks too. Maybe it's all in me head, but it seems to work..

I accidentally bought some safety sandals a few years ago. Were great in the summer when not spraying eg mowing or granular fertilisers. Think they were engelbert strauss.
I tried hiking sandals years ago & got fed up with them filling with dirt - I ended up like Frodo
I've just checked them and they are cofra safety sandals. The reason I mistakenly bought them was that I didn't see the gaps on the poor picture. Compared to walking sandals they are far more enclosed front and back.
Thanks. They look good but I know that I would be forever taking them off to empty the soil.
In my defence, this is the sort of picture I was looking at on a mobile, in sunlight, in a rush. Thought I was buying safety trainers!

I go for light tan boots. Currently using DeWalt dealer boots. Been using dealer boots for four year's and wouldn't go back to laces.
I used to love DeWalt Challengers but each pair lasted less than the previous pair.
My old boss had the right idea on footwear (totally wrong!)
He had never heard of such things as shoes let along steel toe caps.
Used to be barefoot, summer & winter, rain or shine. He was a rockery expert in his day & used to build & place stones without anything on his feet. F**king mad!
Useless businessman, he couldn't organise a thing & mad a loss every year although he was in business for well over 20 years before going to the wall. I was long gone by then. The workmanship & company name was the only thing that kept him going.
The vehicles were in a terrible state, cracked windscreens & knackered tyres. The only way I managed to get anything done to an old Cabstar was to tell him I had been pulled over & given a warning by the police. Told him if he wanted me to drive anything, I wanted it in writing he excepted full responsiblity for any fines I recieved.
Goretex boots/trainers and merino wool socks, your feet will be fine all year round.
