Safety boots can definitely cause foot pain, but that usually comes down to poor fit or cheap construction. If the toe box is too tight, the insole’s thin, or there’s no arch support, yeah, your feet are gonna be hurting by lunch.
But solid, well-designed boots? They protect and support without wrecking your day. Just make sure you get the right size, break them in properly, and don’t settle for garbage. Invest in your feet, because your feet are irreplaceable.
