Most Comfortable Men's Safety Sneakers for All-Day Wear?

Hey everyone,

I’m on the hunt for a solid pair of men’s safety sneakers that don’t kill my feet by midday.

I work long shifts on concrete floors, and while I need the required safety features (steel or composite toe, slip resistance, etc.), comfort is my top priority.

I've tried a few brands, but most end up being either too heavy or lacking support.

Does anyone have a go-to pair that actually feels like wearing regular athletic shoes?

Bonus points if they’re breathable and stylish enough to wear outside of work too.

Appreciate any recommendations

I wish they had the 4A boys semis in 1990 so I could see if the refs really did screw Vashon against Raytown South. LOL!

St. Pius X (KC) 2025 schedule

An eye opening slate:

Week 1 hosting Rockhurst. 2 vs. Little Rock (AR) Catholic a pretty good 6A school in a metro area that has moved in front of those NW state strongholds. 3 at KS superpower Gardner-Edgerton (should be the Spectrum KC TV game of the week). 4 hosting Cardinal Ritter who should return to the top of MO C5 especially if they nab any of the LN transfers LOL. 5 host St. Michael that actually looks like the only game to this date they would enter as a favorite! 6 the now annual hosting top KS 5A tier St. James Academy. 7 at Bishop Miege who needs no KC metro intro. 8 at Festus St. Pius X gotta think even with the cross State trip the Warriors are heavy favorites in this one and 9 they actually retained (smart move) Savannah who is perhaps the most quietly improving program in NWMO.

Looks to me like a team that, given how beyond the returning QB they will be pretty varsity green to begin 2025, could take some early lumps but be sharpened for a nice playoff run in C5.

Thoughts?

West Plains

Greg Dixon taking over track program at Thayer and assistant football there.


They have ran off Womack(one of the best women’s bball coaches on this side of the state.

Wyatt, can’t argue with his results overall, though some may disagree with his coaching style.

And now Dixon, one of the better track coaches in the state and the son of one of the best HS cross country coaches to ever do it in the country.

But hey, at least the AD and her school board prez mother have matching haircuts.

This is insanity.

2025 OMC Baseball Standings

Intended to start this Monday prior to the start of conference play, but was too busy Monday and Tuesday to get it done. Tried to do this during boys basketball season and updated it on Monday's. Will try to do the same and will gauge interest to see if I should continue:


2025 OMC Baseball Standings
OMC Overall
Carl Junction 1-0 10-5
Logan-Rogersville 0-0 11-3
Marshfield 0-0 11-5
Bolivar 0-0 7-5
Branson 0-0 5-10
Hillcrest 0-0 4-7
West Plains 0-0 7-9

Tuesday's Result
Carl Junction 9, West Plains 0

Thursday's Games
Bolivar at Marshfield
Branson at Carl Junction
Logan-Rogersville at West Plains
Hillcrest at Rolla (non-con)

Side note ... spoke to a West Plains parent last night at the game and asked if the flooding impacted the baseball stadium and he said thankfully it did not. I'm happy to hear that they will be able to have home games this season and not have to finish the season as a road team while repairs were being made. He said the football field will have some turf repair work done, but it will not have to be completely redone.

MSHSAA what are they thinking?

Don't want to show my age, but I remember when the two games you had to win to advance to the finial four were played on a neutral floor.
How is it fair that a team gets to host both those games on their home floor?
Is MSHSAA that lazy, that they can't make an effort to set up neutral sites or is MSHSAA disliked that much and schools don't want to work with them to host these games.
Does anyone know what a host school receives for allowing games to be played at there facilities?
