    ROCKROOSTER

    I found a boot brand called ROCKROOSTER and ordered a pair of slip-on work boots for about $90.00 and as a welder/grinder I have been very pleased indeed that I did so. The boots have proven to be very comfortable, break-in easy and (by design) keep the grit and grime out of my work boots. They...

    No typing or much of anything else for awhile.

    The good news is I finally had my hard cast removed, man that is great! The Doc. says that the injury/healing is looking fine and 6 weeks in a web-gear Velcro strap brace and then we will talk about physical therapy. I am so pleased to have that hard cast gone, it was really bugging me.

    disk grinder

    ROCKROOSTER

    I had some co-workers/friends from Australia that wore slip-on/slip-off work boots daily. When I inquired about them they said "Oi man, get ur Blundys, Mate".
