CSA Approved Vegan Work Boots?
Started

Does anybody know where I can buy CSA Approved Work Boots in Nova Scotia Canada? I know Marks Work Warehouse has a vegan steel toed sneaker, but I need actual work boots for my job.
I've thus far avoided the whole leather work boots thing entirely by getting Dunlops steel toed rubber boots. You can buy them at Marks, and they adhere to CSA safety standards. They may be rubber boots but they don't get that hot in the summer and not too cold in the winter. Caution: You will get teased if you do this. Insist that you like rubber boots and that no they are not too warm and they will stop teasing you after a while. http://www.dunlopboots.com/business/boots/purofort-thermo-safety
Work gloves: Impact gloves are really good, but expensive. But they are good, and some work sites require them and they are good for just about anything you don't need rubber chem gloves for.

Hope that helps :)
