I recently had to get up on my roof to do some simple repairs. While I am somewhat handy, I tend to avoid some of the more dangerous jobs—like climbing a ladder to get on the roof. I am always afraid I am going to slip and fall, or start sliding off the roof and plunge to my death in the garden below. This time, I got myself prepared, carefully adjusting the ladder and choosing the least steep part of the roof to climb onto. And, I was wearing my Muck Boots Jobber style boots, which helped me feel much more safe and secure than my usual footwear, like sneakers.

The Muck Jobber Boots gave me great traction, and I never felt like I was going to slip on the ladder while climbing up. Once on the roof, the sole of the Muck Boots Jobber boots gripped those shingles tightly. There was never a point where I had that sinking feeling that I usually get—the one where I am certain I am about to slide right off of the roof.

Even being up on the roof on a hot day, the Muck Boots Jobber boots did not make my feet too hot. After over an hour, I still felt like I could finish the job and get it done in one shot, rather than have to tackle this project over several days. The less that I have to climb up any ladder and work on a roof, the better it is for me!
