Blackrock Fully Waterproof Chukka Boots S3 Safety Work Boots with Anti Static Protection,Leather Safety Boots with Steel Toe Cap & Protective Steel Midsole,Ankle Support,Lightweight Safety Work Boots

These are lovely and robust, very chunky however.. these DO run large. My child has extremely wide feet with a high instep & the size I would usually get for her was 2 sizes too big. Def downsize but 1 or 2 sizes. The tounge has a wide/large range and a high instep is not an issue with these shoes which is handy. Very reasonable price for safety shoes & all round good quality however we did need to return (which was very easy) due to the incorrect sizing !.

Shoes are much bigger than the UK size stated

The first thing to say is the advice to buy a size smaller is spot on. I was a little nervous about this but figured that since I'm really 81/2-9 I could probably squeeze into an 8. Shouldn't have worried; the 8s fit me exactly like the 9s they are replacing - to the extent that I don't know why Blackrock don't just fall into line with the rest of the world's shoe sizing.On to the boots themselves. You can tell they are cheap - close up the uppers are a bit coarse, the soles are blocky and even the laces are like shoes rather than boots. Importantly though they are well put together with no lumps or rough finish and so comfortable to wear.The other thing that worried me was that, with steel toecaps and a plate they would be very heavy. While you wouldn't wear them to go ballet dancing they are fine for normal wear.Overall these boots a re a good example of tough cheap workboots. If I'm still working in an environment that needs safety boots and is going to be hard on them when they wear out; I would certainly buy another pair. If I'm just getting boots to knock around in then I'd probably spend more and get something more refined.

A one size larger than your normal size for comfort.

Nothing to dislike

Good quality for the price however slightly oversized so maybe should have got a size smaller

Love most of the things about these boots except the size. I ordered, and received the correct size...but the size was too generous and couldn't wear them! I did however see that for the money they are good value. So I re-ordered them again, this time a size smaller. I look forward to them arriving. Good boots.

The boots look to be fine, but they wear very large. I ordered a size 11 as that is what I wear normally, but I had to really, REALLY tighten up the laces to avoid the boots moving around on my foot. I'd recommend going a half size smaller if possible, I think that would solve the issue. Probably not an issue if you are wearing very thick boot socks, but in normal (cotton sports) socks, they are quite loose.
