Yes. I got a pair for Christmas. Metal free. Definitely way more comfy than Ecco, but twice the price too. They have slip on versions as well. My first pair didn't fit and I sent them back and got a different size days later. Hassle free.

Funny. It worked the other day. Store doesn't even show them as an available option when when 'shopping'.

AmberJack Chelsea are nice but have absolutely 0 traction once you step in de-ice fluid, snow or water. I noticed it a little a few months ago and finally in the snow the other day it was like walking on ice. I won’t be using them anymore because of that.

Search ‘Roper’

I’ve worn Ariat Heritage Roper Western boots for the past 10+ years. They come in black with a plain toe and have rubber soles. Metal detector friendly. Great at keeping your feet dry on wet/snowy ramps. If you can get past the first few weeks of breaking them in you’ll feel like you’re wearing slippers at work! I’ll never go back to wearing shoes at work.
