    Summer boots with steel shank???

    It seems like I am finally starting to build a solid team this year and am excited for it. Normally it is a slow start to the day at the yard with getting equipment loaded and going over the day. By the time we get to the job it’s a safety walk and going over the job details. We get the job...

    Summer boots with steel shank???

    Great advice Sean! I do my best while in the bucket to come down and teach my guys, not so much while in a climbing situation. We don’t have designated days of training but whenever the opportunity avails itself I try to train and educate before we go to a job. One thing I struggle with is that...

    Summer boots with steel shank???

    Sometimes they were slackers and didn’t last long but it was mainly a lot of inexperienced people. I would train them but we all know how overwhelmed a new groundie can get with all of the things to learn plus being proficient on the ground. There were seasons where I had a good crew and would...

    Summer boots with steel shank???

    Not blunt at all Mr. @Burnham! Those days are typically due to the ground crew lacking and taking too long. Last summer was amazing financially but 50-70 hour weeks from march-October was a bit rough both physically and realistically. I’m hoping to be more on top of the schedule and to be more...

    Summer boots with steel shank???

    I deal with the heat like all of us but when I climb a big tree or have multiple removals I’ll be up there for 8-12 hours straight and with super hot boots the sweat build up causes foot health issues and bacteria to grow. I’ve found shankless boots I can wear but I would like to pick something...

    Summer boots with steel shank???

    Do the 16in wesco’s create too much heat in the summer? Should I go with the 10in option?

    Summer boots with steel shank???

    I wasn’t aware of some of those brands! Sorry for my ignorance but I’ve never had a pair of true leather grain boots like any of these. There are so many different options with each brand at different price points. Any specific recommendations from experience?

    Summer boots with steel shank???

    Hey tree fam! So I have never owned a pair of boots with the steel shanks and I’m becoming so inclined to find a boot that is better for all day spur use. I currently own two pairs of boots. The arb pro neo, they are my daily wear boots, cool enough for our 100-110 degree summers and very...
