What Can You Do With Old Work Boots? (4 Alternatives To Just Bining Them)

When you find yourself with a used pair of work boots that you no longer use or need, you might ask yourself what you can do with them besides tossing them. 

a pair of my old work boots looking for what I can do with it

We are going to talk about some of those other options.  From donating to crafting, there are many great ideas that you can consider before just throwing them away.  

Donate your old work boots

When you have a pair of work boots you no longer use or need, one thing you can do is donate them.  Donating work boots provides many people who can’t afford a new pair, to at least have the chance to start working and make some money and then buy a new pair of affordable work boots.

The boots you donate will need to be in decent condition, though many work boots can be repaired and made like new by a good cobbler. 

Chances are, however, that the people buying used work boots only have money for the boot and not for the repairs, so with that in mind, donate boots in a condition that can be worn by someone for a while without the need for repair. 

Also, before donating your old work boots one thing you should do is disinfect your work boots. This should help kill any possible bacteria and funguses living in your boots.

Where to donate?

Some places you can consider donating work boots to are:

  • Thrift/Second-Hand shops
  • Homeless Shelters
  • At your local church
  • Family or friends starting a new job where they require work boots

Take your old boots to a recycling center

Let’s say your work boots are not in the best condition and would likely need extensive repair in order to be wearable once again. Then a recycling center would be your best option.

Recycling centers will take items and send them off to places where they are broken down into usable material, like rubber and certain plastics. Rubbers and plastics can be melted down and become material for other goods.  

Boots have heavy rubber soles that will become great recycled material for many things.

Recycling your boots can be a great option for the environmentally conscious person looking to support sustainable production practices around the world.

Recycle your boots or shoes if they are in rough condition and cannot be worn any longer without extensive repair.  

Repurpose your old work boots

There are many crafty people out there who love turning work boots into something besides a wearable work boots. Old work boots have found themselves turned into all kinds of fun things.  

From garden pots to leather crafts, an old pair of work boots are found to be quite versatile and fun to repurpose.  Let’s start with the garden pot.

Garden Pot

Work boots often get turned into gardening pots for plants.  All you do is fill it with soil and place a plant or seeds in it,  water, and then wait for the outside elements to take over.

The end product is a fun quirky addition to your garden or front porch that is sure to be appreciated by your guests and others.   

Garden Ornament

Some boots are found to be an attractive outdoor garden ornament when placed among other rustic-looking farm paraphernalia.  You might see them placed as feet for a sitting scarecrow or maybe set on an old wooden rocking chair.  

Whatever the place, old work boots in the garden space will add some rustic charm, especially as time goes on and the wear and tear of sitting outside breaks down the boots and gives them an old worn down boot patina.

Bird House

You read that right!  Old work boots can become a family of bird’s new home! 

Just cut a hole on the side and glue or place it out on a post among your garden for birds to find it.  This unique birdhouse is sure to attract a little bird family and become a favorite conversation piece among friends and family!

Leather Crafts

Last but not least, old work boots are great sources of leather.  You can harvest the leather from work boots and create many things including;

  • Purses
  • Small slippers
  • Belts
  • Wine holders
  • Bracelets

And More!  If you are creative and handy with leather shears and leather needles, the leather on the upper of a work boot can be a really great material for you to use in many fun projects. 

Pinterest is a great place to find more ideas if you search for repurposed work boots or upcycled leather crafts.  

Sell your old work boots

Finally, if you find yourself with some work boots that you just don’t wear or need any longer, selling can be a great way to get back some of the money you put into them. 

Some good places to consider selling your used work boots include:

  • Ebay
  • Poshmark
  • OfferUp
  • Facebook Marketplace
  • Craigslist
  • Your Local Flea Market
  • Garage Sale
  • Consignment Shops

Before you sell your work boots, be sure to give them a good cleaning and tidy them up a bit. 

Items sold online or in-person will appeal to a potential buyer more if they are clean looking and smell good.  You can find boot spray to deodorize the inside of your boots on Amazon. This one here is a popular option.

Additionally, you can waterproof and oil the work boots before showing them to someone.

I know it sounds like a lot of work but it won’t take you longer than 15 minutes to do both boots and increase your chances of selling the boots at a good price.

Don’t throw your work boots in the garbage

All in all, old used work boots can be destined for more than just rotting and breaking down at the garbage dump. 

You can donate them, recycle them, use them for garden pots or decoration, make something from the leather in the uppers or else sell them. 

Upcycling our used items around the home can make for a more sustainable future and allows for less resources getting wasted and thrown out forever. 

Next time you have a pair of old work boots and just don’t need them, be sure to consider all of your options before throwing them into the garbage!

Let others enjoy the boots you’ve enjoyed and give them a second life!

Mink Oil VS Boots/Shoe Oil (Testing Fiebing’s & Huberd’s On My Work Boots)

Mink oil and boot oil from Fiebing’s and boots oil from Huberd’s respectively are two of the most well-known leather treatments options out there.

There’s not much REAL content out there that talks about this topic so I’ve decided to use my own steel toe work boots to test mink oil vs boots oil on them and see what happens.

The boots I’ve used for this test are my Thorogood 804-4200 work boots and the Blundstone steel toe slip-on work boots.

I’ve used these two because I wanted to try different colors and different leathers and just see what happens.

One is black so obviously, we won’t see some things like if it changes the color of the boot or not. That’s why I chose to have an extra boot for the test since this one has a more light color and we could see changes in colors and other helpful things.

Let’s get into it…

What’s in these oils?

I’m sorry to tell you I don’t know and probably no one knows 100% for sure (unless you’re the person who creates these).

What’s in the mink oil?

The liquid mink oil I’ve got from Fiebing’s says it contains:

  • Mink oil
  • Lanolin
  • Silicone
  • Neatsfoot oil

What’s in the boot’s oil?

There’s no information whatsoever as to what goes into this product or at least I can’t find it.

Each company keeps its “recipe” quite close to its chest and most of them will not include any information about what’s going on in their products.

Of course, that’s not the best for us the consumers since we might apply the wrong leather conditioner to our leather items and ruin them simply because we didn’t know what’s in the leather treatment solution we’ve used.

But at least they tell us what specific product is good to use with a specific type of leather. So make sure you ALWAYS read the label before buying and using any leather treatment to condition or waterproof your leather work boots.

Best ways to apply mink oil & boot/shoe oil

the best way to apply boot oil is by using a small paintbrush and for mink oil is to use a rag.

Most of the time when I apply mink oil I use a rug or some old t-shirt I’ve cut to clean my work boots.

Since the boot oil is a bit thicker or more viscous than mink oil I prefer to apply it with a small paintbrush. It’s much easier to spread the oil and it helps to push the oil into the stitches and places you can’t reach otherwise.

I’ve used all sorts of things to apply mink oil and boot oil to my footwear:

  • Rug
  • Old t-shirts
  • Paintbrush
  • Baking brush
  • A sponge
  • Bare hands (your hands will stink for the rest of the day though)

Differences I’ve seen between boots oil and mink oil

Here are the main differences between boot oil and mink oil that I think is worth sharing. If there’s something you want to know that I might’ve missed, please comment below and I’ll do my best to answer you.

1. Color

I know many people have asked this question and I hope the image below answers your question. I think the Huberd’s boot oil is brown and the mink oil it’s more like golden color, something like sunflower oil.

We’ll see if that has any consequences when applied to the leather. Especially when applied to the lighter leather of the Thorogood work boots.

2. Smell

Both have a smell that I don’t like personally. Initially, the boot oil smell is stronger than the mink oil but after a while, I find the mink oil was stronger.

Actually, I remember one-time last winter I was working operating a small crane and it was quite cold outside so I had the AC on inside my cab.

The nice warm temperature inside the cab warmed up the leather and the mink oil to the point it gave me headaches for the whole day and made me want to vomit.

3. Thickness or viscosity

The oil boot is much thicker than the mink oil. I hope you can appreciate that in the image below. When I was pouring the shoe oil it just stayed there whereas the mink oil as soon as it touched the leather started to run down the boot.

That’s the reason I prefer to apply the boot oil with a little brush rather than use a rug. Much easier to spread the oil.

You could say that the boot oil is more like honey and the mink oil is more like sunflower oil in terms of how thick they are.

I don’t know if this has any effect on the leather but common sense tells me that the mink oil penetrates the leather easier and faster whilst the boot oil will remain at the surface of the boot for longer.

This actually might make the boot oil better for those of you that wear work boots and want to make the boot more waterproof, and more water-resistant.

4. Darkening of the leather

Another question many of you might have is which one darkens the leather, the boot oil or the mink oil?

this images shows which oil darkens the leather more on my work boots the mink oil or the boot oil

I think both of them darken the leather more or less the same. I say I think because I’m color blind so I don’t see much of a difference but I do see that both solutions have darkened the leather quite a bit.

If you’re more of an office worker, a superintendent, manager, etc or you work in a cleaner environment AND you do care about how the boot looks like then you might want to think twice before applying any of these two products to your boots.

To me, that doesn’t matter much since I’m a construction worker and the look of my boots is not necessarily at the top of my priorities (even though I try to keep them looking nice). And in all honesty, I don’t think they look bad with this darker brown color.

5. Leather penetration

After applying both leather treatment solutions to my work boots and leaving them to dry naturally for about 30 minutes I observed that the mink oil was penetrating into the leather much faster than the boot oil.

The following day the mink oil was totally sucked into the leather and the boot looked like it might need another hand of oil. At the same time, the boot treated with boot oil was starting to show some dry areas as well.

These boots have never been treated before with any kind of leather treatment solution so maybe that’s why I’m seeing this result. I’ve been wearing them for at least 6 months now and I never put any mink oil or boot oil on them until today.

So that’s the result of the leather being dry and now it’s being brought back to life I guess. We’ve had nice weather for these past months so I thought eh, they don’t need any oil, the weather is nice and dry.

But this goes to show you that the leather (remember, after all, it’s a piece of skin) needs conditioning to keep it nice and moisturized.

6. Price

A bottle of boot oil from Huberd’s is more expensive than a bottle of Fiebing’s mink oil. Both bottles contain about the same amount of oil (~226 ml or 8 FL. OZ.)

Check their prices here: Huberd’s oil and Fiebing’s oil.

Can you use mink oil on riding boots?

I don’t own a pair of riding boots but mink oil can be used on many leather boots. In my experience, if the leather is a smooth type of leather it’s even better.

When should you not use mink oil or boot oil?

Yes, there’s one particular time I would not recommend you use mink oil in liquid form and also NEVER in paste/grease form or boots oil.

And that’s when you’re trying to condition or waterproof suede or nubuck work boots. It’s a big no-no from my own experience. I’ve ruined my boots by applying mink oil to my nubuck leather work boots.

I recommend you to use a spray mink oil solution if you want to give some love to your suede or nubuck boots.

So which one is better? Mink oil or boot oil?

Well, the real question is Better for what?

I’ve used these products for many years to conditions and especially to make my work boots and casual boots more water-resistant or water repellant and I can’t say there’s much difference between them other than the ones I’ve shared with you today.

Some will say that mink oil will eat your leather and after 30-40 years your boots will be ruined. Who the heck wears the same pair of boots for 40 years???

If you are one of those people all I say is that I appreciate you but I can’t do that. I get bored, the boots get wrecked or stinky or unsafe to wear after a few years in my industry.

Then you have someone that comes and say that boot oil is actually the one that will destroy the leather…

…I don’t know. To me sounds more like companies fighting for the audience. But in my personal experience, I’ve never had issues with any of the products and I’ve had to wear safety work boots for more than a decade.

Work Boots Vs. Hunting Boots: (Differences Explained For New Users)

Today we are going to talk about work boots and hunting boots, how they compare to one another and if they can be used interchangeably.  

We will go over how certain features of a work boot provide your feet protection and how hunting boots also have special features that give you the best protection when out in the woods. 

We will also touch on the cost of work boots and hunting boots, if there are any other costs and if it’s worth it to buy more expensive work boots.

For those of you who never had any of these types of boots before here’s what each one of them is…

What is a work boot?

When you find yourself in a new job, it may end up being one that requires you to wear work boots. Work boots are just as important and essential to your job as any other piece of equipment being used. 

They provide protection for your feet with steel toe caps and heavy leather.  They give you warmth and keep your feet dry. 

The thick rubber soles and treads give you traction to steady yourself on whatever surface you find yourself working on.  Work boots are made to be worked in. 

They are a tool to get whatever job you’re working on done, all the while giving your feet comfort, protection, and usefulness around the clock, day in and day out. 

What is a hunting boot?

I have family who makes yearly trips to deeply forested lands here in Washington. They hunt deer all the while staying in a dry cabin with no running water and no electricity. 

They take everything they need with them, including good hunting clothing and boots. 

Hunting boots are an important piece of their wardrobe when traversing the landscape for several hours a day, looking for and waiting for their prey to make an appearance.  

A good pair of hunting boots mean dry protected feet that can handle walking over a variety of terrains and ground all day.  They are often long enough to provide your shins with some coverage and to protect them from small critters and insects that tend to bite when encountering a human leg.  

Hunting boots are made with lightweight and water-resistant material and include soles that are flexible and durable. A hunting trip will go better if one has the right pair of hunting boots. 

Work boots vs hunting boots when it comes to durability

Work boots durability

If you invest in a good pair of workboots, you will get back a boot that could last you 12-24 months with love and care.  If you have a pair that can be repaired and have the soles replaced after they wear out, work boots can potentially last you decades! 

Some of the lower-budget work boots will of course have shorter lifespans.

But if you put in the time to care for them and want to pay extra to have them professionally repaired, then even a low-cost work boot can last you a number of years (always depending on how harsh is your work environment on work boots).

Just like a good pair of work boots, hunting boots are going to last you years depending on how much care you put into maintaining them. 

If they are soles that can be replaced, that will add years to your boots. If they are made of leather material vs synthetic material, that too can make a difference in the longevity of a hunting boot. 

Hunting boots durability

Some hunting boots are made out of just rubber, which will last you a good long time.  But they can dry rot, which leads to a shorter life span for your hunting boots.

It is good to research and learn how to properly care for your hunting boots so as to add to their lifespan.  A good pair of hunting boots should last you 10+ years.  

Hunting boots vs work boots safety features

Work boots’ safety features

Work boots will often be made with some safety features to ensure that your feet are protected in whatever work conditions you find yourself working in. 

One nice protection added to a lot of boots is the safety toe cap.  Nowadays you have work boots with composite toe caps, alloy toe caps, steel toe caps…

Steel toe caps will save your toes from heavy material falling off a truck onto your foot.  They’ll give you a hard-toe upper that can be used to kick whatever you need moved or set into place. 

Another great protection feature in work boots is the high heels.  When a firefighter is climbing a ladder into a burning house, the heels on their work boots keep them from slipping off the rungs of the ladder. 

This is also a feature that helps protect tree climbers, loggers, and linemen from slipping off branches.

Hunting boot’s safety features

Hunting boots are made with safety in mind.  If you’re walking all day through rugged terrain, the full-grain leather hunting boots are going to keep your feet from fatigue and allow you to safely hike as much as you need through sticker bushes, brush, grass, and sticks. 

They are often made to go up to the middle of your shin and provide protection from critters that like to bite, whether it’s a small insect or small critter you happen upon. 

Hunting boots for cold weather are made with special zero-degree insulation to keep your toes and feet from getting frostbitten. 

Most hunting boots are also made with water resistance added to the structure of the boot.  Dry and warm feet are important to maintaining during those long days out in the elements.  

Work boots vs hunting boots in terms of price

What do work boots cost?

Walmart right now has some standard work boots that are under $80.  They are not the best quality but they are made to last you 6-12 months. 

They may lack comfortability but should hold up in standard working conditions.  On the other hand, if you save up a couple hundred and find yourself an expensive pair of work boots, you will have a boot that will last longer, have better quality material and construction, and give your feet comfort and safety all day long at your work.  

What do hunting boots cost?

Hunting boots can range in price from anywhere around $100 to $600.  Why the big price difference? 

Quality construction and material as well as durability. There are decent hunting boots out there that will keep your feet dry and will provide protection to your feet, but they won’t hold up under heavy usage and will likely leave your feet hurting by the middle of the hunting trip. 

A good solid pair of hunting boots going for a couple hundred to $600 will give you something to wear for years to come if maintained properly. 

The cost of maintaining any leather boot will bring with it annual costs. You may see yourself putting in a couple thousand in one pair of boots over the span of 10 or more years. 

There are people who love their boots and want to just keep repairing them rather than buy new ones.  It is up to you whether you want to put that much into a single pair of boots.  

Do leather work boots make good hunting boots?

Nope. Hunting boots are lightweight and made for walking many miles in. Work boots are usually heavier with thick rubber soles and steel toe caps amongst other things.

They will not be comfortable if worn as you’re walking miles and miles for several hours and days in the middle of the woods. The same goes for hunting boots.

They may be comfortable to wear to work, but they lack steel toe caps and are more daunting to put on since they go up to your leg a bit further than your average work boot.

Deciding what to get

When you’re shopping for work boots or hunting boots, ask yourself 3 questions;

Are they comfortable?
What’s my budget?
Will they be durable?

Shopping for work boots and hunting boots can be daunting. Fortunately, we have many articles that describe many different aspects of boot craftsmanship and different types of quality boots to look into.

Research and read reviews. Reviews are a great place to get an overall good picture of what a particular boot is like and if it’s worth the purchase.

Last words

Work boots and hunting boots are not interchangeable but are both important to their professions that they’re used for. The unique needs of our feet depending on the work or activity we are doing should be considered before making a boot purchase.

While work boots are often heavy-duty, stiffer, and protect your toes, hunting boots will be lighter and more flexible to give your feet the natural movement they need when hiking long distances.

With proper care, work boots and hunting boots can last you many years. It is worth it to pay a little extra sometimes if you hope to have a pair of work or hunting boots that will last a long time.

Can You Wear Work Boots With Shorts At Work? (Or It’s Not Allowed?)

Can you wear work boots with shorts, and if so, when is it appropriate to?  We are going to tackle this question and discuss why wearing shorts with work boots may or may not be ok. 

a bricklayer working wearing safety work boots and a pair of shorts due to high temperatures.

We will cover what dangers may exist with wearing shorts with safety work boots, where it’s ok to wear shorts with work boots, and what OSHA’s official position on the subject is. 

The answer may surprise you!

But to give you a quick answer, yes you can wear shorts and work boots. It will vastly depend on what type of work you’re doing and also depending on how strict is the company you’re working for.

Let’s dive in and find out more.

First, is it safe to wear shorts with work boots?

The weather is hot and you’re getting ready for work.  You want to stay cool and so reach for your shorts to wear with your summer work boots

You know it will help you stay cool throughout the day, but you’re not sure if it will be completely safe considering the hazards you have at work. 

Is it safe to wear shorts with work boots? The answer is yes and no. 

There are jobs where you need your legs fully covered as that is part of your uniform that protects (PPE) you from the hazards of your job.  Welding, concrete pouring, etc.

Firemen for example need their legs covered completely by their fire retardant suit to keep from getting burnt. 

Another example would be if you were a logger and you worked in a wooded landscape with sticker bushes all over the place. You might find yourself pretty cut up at the end of the day wearing shorts with work boots.   

On the other hand, in some occupations, it can be perfectly safe to wear shorts with work boots. Our UPS men and woman show up throughout the summer wearing shorts with work boots and is quite grateful for that when it’s extra warm out. 

Another job where work boots and shorts are worn together could be a warm day of framing a new home. 

Oftentimes when you go past a new home construction and it’s sunny and hot out, you’ll spot many of the laborers with shorts on instead of jeans to keep cool while working.  

Wearing shorts with work boots can be ok in some work environments while not safe in others. 

To know if you should or shouldn’t wear shorts on the job,  you’ll want to ask yourself if your pants are protecting you from any hazards on the job and if your safety is affected at all. 

You may also want to consider if OSHA standards are met on your worksite or at your workplace in case an OSHA officer shows up out of the blue. We’ll talk about that below…

Where can you wear work boots with shorts?

You can wear shorts with work boots at jobs where your safety is not affected at all by exposing your legs. 

There may be situations where shorts are preferred even.  If you have a job where you are not at risk of anything hazardous splashing, scratching, or touching your legs will occur, then you can wear shorts with your work boots. 

Just to mention a few:

  • Mail carrier or UPS truck driving
  • Warehouse
  • Grocery stores
  • Nurseries and Garden Centers
  • SOME Construction Sites

What’s OSHA’s position on this topic?

OSHA gives the power to the employer to decide what dress code their employees will follow but still has some guidelines pertaining to employees’ safety when around certain hazardous situations. 

They recommend that an employee provides and requires protective clothing in situations where bodily harm is likely if one is not wearing proper protective clothing.  

OSHA believes that while hazardous situations could be chemical, radioactive, environmental, or mechanical in nature, hot temperatures above 80 degrees are considered high-risk conditions to work in. 

There could be a risk of overheating in those kinds of temperatures, so OSHA asks business owners to consider this factor next to the chances of exposure to the other mentioned work hazards, and decide if the risk is minimal enough to safely allow shorts to be worn.

Work boots and shorts can work together well

We discussed if shorts can be worn with work boots, what jobs they can be worn at and what OSHA’s official stance is on wearing shorts in the workplace. 

While some situations are an appropriate and safe environment for one to wear shorts, other places with more hazards present in the work environment may call for fully covered legs to minimize or eliminate exposure that may cause bodily harm. 

However, in some situations, the risk of exposure to those particular hazardous situations may not be as severe as the risk of overheating in too warm temperatures. 

On this occasion, OSHA gives the ok to allow for shorts to be considered to keep a person healthy and comfortable while on the job. 

So sometimes it will be ok to wear shorts with work boots, while at other times it just won’t be enough protection.  

Asking your employer what your workplace or job site’s rules are for protective clothing or uniform requirements will help you make the best decision regarding whether you should wear shorts to work.
