It really is! I really noticed when I decided to buy nonslip steel caps for work… the women’s ones had pink details (because that’s so important🙄) but were obviously not as well made, and as for the “nonslip” sole… guffaws derisively
Omg, work boots are the WORST. I have two pairs of She Wears from a while ago and they’re better than most but still not great (granted, I have disproportionately thin ankles). No way I’m wrecking my feet with poorly fitting, overly heavy men’s boots or shit quality women’s boots that were clearly an afterthought.
In this case, being a largish person with ankles like tree stumps and feet like boats is actually working in my favour for once! Although I still lament not being able to even try on most of the adorable and petite women’s shoes I see sighs
