Formal shoes during college and sports shoes (regular puma, adid...) after hours.

In dire situations slippers too.

80% of the time:
Orazo Riding Boots, with slipping safety, steel toe protector, full leather construction, etc. And most of all, its completely Black color, so you can easily use it in Offices and Colleges, like I do. A bit heavy, but I easily got used to it.

20% of the time:
While I go to play Basketball, then I use normal Sports Shoes from Action Campus...

My beloved CHUCK TAYLOR ALL STAR all the time. I'm in love with these since i'm 10 :P. I never had any other brand shoes and never will have. It's comfy on inside, hard outside and waterproof.

Industrial safety shoes, very similar to orazo but much cheaper.
thickest leather, steel toe, anti-slip sole etc etc.

very robust, long lasting, offers good protection, better than anything else like sport shoes, leather shoes, woodland, nike reebok, tata, bata.

Prince sir,
where did you buy the industrial shoes from in pune??
And also what is their cost??
My military shoes are getting very old and wornout so need a good replacement.

I wear black formal shoes with toe protection during my daily commute but I wear a pair of power(bata) sport shoes during rides. The orazo shoes at 2900 should be really good too.

Being a fast bowler for my University cricket team, I thought to buy metal spikes but ended up buying rubber spike shoes from Reebok KinetcFit MRP Rs 3300, purchased it at a discount of 50% on that model at just Rs 1650 from Jaipur. And that was one of the best deals, because the shoes are super comfortable, easy to run wearing them... I did not buy metal spikes as they come costly plus they can't be used daily, but specifically when bowling.
