    Hi,

    I'm trying to find good quality boots for an elderly farmer.

    I need leather, soft, no steel toe caps and slip on, not laced.

    I'd appreciate any recommendations.

    Ecco are hard to beat. Don't wear anything else, don't know if they do a slip-on boot though. Meindl are good but need to be broken in

    That's for those. I can't see any Ecco slip ons and he can't break them in as such. His legs are in a bad way anyway so any further cuts or scratches would be a problem. It's so hard!

    These look good. Anyone ever tried them?

    Redback pricy but the most comfortable boot you'll find
