I've worn Deerstags at work for more than fifteen years. The sole seems to wear out in about 1-1/2 to 2 years. However, they're inexpensive, provide good grip on very slick ramps, and look decent enough.

In fact, thanks for the reminder. Just ordered another pair.

Which style Deer Stags do you order? The different styles have many different soles for grip. They look pretty ideal (price wise and with a sole that grips) for a First Officer in the winter.

It saddens me that this comment got no love. Maybe it's a cultural thing because I am from Oklahoma, but my Ariats are the last work shoe I will ever own.

I’m a huge fan of the Ariats with the composite shank as well.

Agreed, however their only downside is the soles don't provide the best grip in snow and ice.

the rubber soles do just as fine as any other shoe in my opinion. Now if you get a boot with a leather sole you're going to have a bad time, mkay.

Red Wing farmer’s clodhoppers: because anything found in a barnyard will be present on the ramp too.
