World Mental Health Day is a great reminder to check in on yourself or a mate!

📸 Thanks for the amazing photo

Here are Beyond Blue's top five practical coaching tips to help relieve stresses that can build up.
• Deal with problems one at a time - breakdown problems into bite-size pieces
• Notice common thinking traps – all or nothing thinking, self-blame, repetitive thinking
• Have realistic goals – make it achievable, it doesn’t have to be perfect
• Balance is key - schedule pleasurable activities as well as work/family commitments
• Healthy habits - keep both your body and mind healthy

If you need support, chat with a family member, a trusted friend, your GP or a mental health practitioner using support services like Beyond Blue, https://hubs.la/Q024VhWz0

Like many of the industries where our boots are popular, manufacturing can be a traditionally male dominated field. We’re working to make our mark on diversity and inclusion through our CSR goals.

As part of our goal, we’re setting the highest bar in quality and comfort. Our ladies work boots are designed for women on a true female last (or foot mould) and include a shorter ankle length and smaller instep.

As a business we’ve introduced key policies specifically designed to attract a diverse range of candidates which has been key to our early success on gender diversity. As of 2023, we are proud to say 34% of our team members are women but that doesn’t mean we take our foot off the pedal.

Since we were young, we were always told to try on both pairs of shoes. Work boots aren't any different.

In our series of boot fitting tips, we asked the Australian Physiotherapy Association on their advice to finding the right fit.

A common mistake is to try on one boot and not the other. Be sure to try on both boots at the same time to ensure the comfort and fit are right. Once on, try doing a few activities to test the fit. Get into a few positions that you would normally get into at work every day to test not only the fit, but how comfortable the boots will be.
