And given the demanding conditions and long hours agri workers face daily, their safety footwear needs to be up to the task. ### ![Cotswold From V12 Footwear](https://blog.v12footwear.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Cotswold%20IG.png?width=315&height=394&name=Cotswold%20IG.png)Why do farmers need high-performing boots? Farming is hard on the feet. Walking over uneven ground as well as hard floors - often in cold and wet weather - requires tough boots, and risks such as crushing from machinery, equipment and livestock also call for sturdy protective footwear. In fact, the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) confirmed that between April 2024 and March 2025, Agriculture (with Forestry and Fishing) continues to be the most hazardous sector in Great Britain. Thankfully, V12 are industry leaders in agri footwear. Here's a range of high-performing work boots which can benefit those facing the demands of the agriculture industry. ### A farmer’s favourite: the dealer boot When talking about best boots for farmers, the dealer boot has to get first mention. It's become part of the agri uniform, and many people in countryside circles have come to enjoy and rely on the dealer boot because of its easy pull on-and-off benefit, ankle support and stylish - yet traditional - look. ###### [V1231 RAWHIDE](https://v12footwear.com/products/rawhide-brown-sbp-dealer-boot?_pos=1&_sid=ea2f1696f&_ss=r&variant=39508795654338) [![V12 Footwear Rawhide dealer boot](https://blog.v12footwear.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Rawhide%20snip-2.png?width=330&name=Rawhide%20snip-2.png)](https://v12footwear.com/products/rawhide-brown-sbp-dealer-boot?_pos=1&_sid=ea2f1696f&_ss=r&variant=39508795654338) If ever there was a boot that features equal measures of style and safety, it’s V12’s best-selling V1231 Rawhide. #### Great for farmers because of its: - Super strong leather side panel - Anti-penetration composite midsole and steel toecap - Oil, acid and alkali resistant sole > ## AVERAGE AMAZON CUSTOMER RATING FOR RAWHIDE BASED ON 1000+ REVIEWS: 4.6⭐OUT OF 5 ###### [Cotswold STS](https://v12footwear.com/products/v2430-cotswold-sts?_pos=1&_sid=a1e6ca0b7&_ss=r&variant=54881670365570) Built specifically to be lightweight as well as durable, the Cotswold isn’t just another safety dealer boot - it delivers best-in-class comfort and protection. #### [![Cotswold Single Angle](https://blog.v12footwear.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Cotswold%20Single%20Angle.png?width=324&height=264&name=Cotswold%20Single%20Angle.png)](https://v12footwear.com/products/v2430-cotswold-sts?variant=54881670365570) #### Great for farmers because of its: - Durability: In industry trials, the Cotswold’s stitched seams got *stronger* over time. - Rugged construction: With a non-clogging TPU sole that's more abrasion-resistant than rubber and resistant to oil and cow manure, it’s perfect for high-demand farm work. - Lightweight comfort: Weighing in at just 658g, its metal-free design helps reduce fatigue even after long days on your feet. - Supple nubuck leather and ultra-soft lining, keeping you comfy and looking sharp. > "THEY ARE THE MOST COMFORTABLE BOOTS THAT I HAVE WORN." *Wearer review for the Cotswold* Whether you're clocking up 15,000 steps a day or navigating unpredictable terrain, the Cotswold is built to support you every step of the way. It’s not just a boot - it’s an investment in your comfort and safety, which is why it's fast becoming *the* agri dealer to be seen wearing. 🛡️ A WORD ABOUT COMPOSITE MIDSOLES: A FARMER’S FRIEND Composite midsoles (or anti-perforation inserts as some know them as) have become a popular alternative to steel. They hold the same standard of anti-penetration protection without the added weight, and they can be more comfortable in extreme weather, because unlike steel, composite material doesn't conduct heat or cold, thus it doesn't intensify already challenging outdoor temperatures. So composite really is a perfect material for the safety and comfort needs of a farmer.   ### [VR609.01 COLT STS](https://v12footwear.com/products/colt-sts-black-s1p-src-dealer-boot?_pos=1&_sid=b14be00a3&_ss=r&variant=39508833337538) [![V12 Footwear Colt dealer boot](https://blog.v12footwear.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Colt%20snip-1.png?width=330&name=Colt%20snip-1.png)](https://v12footwear.com/products/colt-sts-black-s1p-src-dealer-boot?_pos=1&_sid=b14be00a3&_ss=r&variant=39508833337538) Colt STS has a composite toecap and midsole, giving its wearer lightweight foot protection. #### Great for farmers because of its - STSTM sole unit, providing stability and traction on loose, natural surfaces - Non-clogging tread channels > ## "I can’t say anything bad - they fit perfectly & are so comfortable." *Amazon review for the Colt* ### [VR610.01 STALLION STS](https://v12footwear.com/products/stallion-sts-brown-s1p-src-dealer-boot?_pos=1&_sid=c4fb81adf&_ss=r&variant=39508833697986) [![V12 Footwear Stallion dealer boot](https://blog.v12footwear.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Stallion%20Snip-1.png?width=330&name=Stallion%20Snip-1.png)](https://v12footwear.com/products/stallion-sts-brown-s1p-src-dealer-boot?_pos=1&_sid=c4fb81adf&_ss=r&variant=39508833697986) Stallion STS is a dealer boot that serves up both safety and sophistication. #### Great for farmers because of its: - Non-clogging tread with ladder grips - Airflow channels to keep feet cool - Shock-absorbing foam heel cushioning > ### "Not at all heavy on the foot.
