Are you a homeowner, roofer, or roofing contractor trying to figure out what the best shoes for roofing are? Well, we have all of you covered with our #roofingshoereview ! Knowing what the best #roofingshoes to climb up on your asphalt shingle roof is important because it's very risky! Also, if you're new to the roofing industry, the shoe you choose can be the difference between your being safe and a trip to the hospital.

I have been climbing roofs for 30 years, I have been through many pairs of cougar paws. They are expensive and I have had the sole come off when I was on a roof. So always inspect your cougar paws before you get on the roof. My favorite roofing shoes is a good ole pair of soft crepe sole shoes as I find the cougar paws a little clunky and have to change shoes when you get off a roof. You can have a shoe repair guy put on some good soft crepe soles on any pair of shoes or boots you have. But as shown in this video it is much better to not have a heel, so the sole which contacts the roof is a flat surface. The crepe soles will wear out and need replacing but I have found they last longer than the replaceable soles on the cougar paws. When I started climbing Cougar Paws were not invented yet, so I may be a little old school, just passing along my experiences. Just be careful I have lost one friend and several injured falling off roofs, including me, but not due to my shoes.

Cougar Paws are great with asphalt shingles because they simulate a couch cushion on your feet. Couch cushions have been used for grip on asphalt shingles forever so that's why they have that design. I would venture that unless you use couch cushions in framing for grip, I would stick to a different type of shoe/ boot!

Is there a way to strap the pads to your shoes without buying the boot too? I seem to recall my roof inspector slipping something over his shoes that look an awful lot like the cougar pads. And that strap makes it look like they can be taken off. Or, if not, maybe just glue the pads onto the bottom of a skater shoe?

I have noticed that there’s one shoe that no one, and I mean no one bothers to review which is extremely good. It is a broomball shoe. These puppies really stick. They are made to haul butt on either a slick ice hockey rink, or outside on a snow covered one. You will need to carry a soft bristled finger nail brush to clean out the asphalt granules from time to time, but wow!!! Very light weight and very flexible with a huge surface area too. You’ll wear out the canvas before the sole. I suggest that you wear overshoes right up until you put a foot on a ladder, unless you’re in snow. I’ve been on metal roofs in winter, and plywood sheathing that was covered in sawdust. Stuck like glue. Please review

I use cougar paws for anything 30 plus anything less wear anything with a flat sole.

Did I mention I'm terrified of heights? And almost 50?! My husband who didn't leave the recliner the entire time not even to hold the ladder should be ashamed of himself.

Cougar paws are nice, he's right about metal roofs and sweat.. they slip out. On steep pitch, the boot makes you point your toes out on average, which wears on the Velcro at the front of the boot itself. If that Velcro breaks, you will get a scare. I use dc's because they breath, flat rubber sole, cost effective if you order in. And when they fail, your b-hole won't pucker....

Every different roof, has a, "best", shoe for roof substrates. Now for B.U.R., boots are your only choice I'd recommend. (Edit), I forget to mention, roofing is simply, very dangerous and the dynamics of what your walking on can change dramatically, for example: wet, or icy situations. One part of your roof might be dry and better to walk on, but a few feet away it could be slick. Remember folks, sometimes it's best to get on the roof a few hours later. It just might save your life. God bless you all.

I recommend Wolverine boots not as expensive and good for over all roofs not only asphalt shingle roofs.

They make a great boot, no doubt, but you have to make sure they have the soft soles, in my opinion. Many people don't like wearing boots all the time.

Die hard boots, wolverings same same as die hard with flat sole , there is another brand made in americaI same look at diehard. They don't slide when put plywood and plus has a flat sole , when so hot you wont feel it in your feet.

@@roarfiercefemininerisingma9607 Yes! These would absolutely be the shoes that I would prefer to have while stuck up on an asphalt shingle in the rain, but I would immediately recommend getting off the roof as soon as possible.

best shoe for roofing is a inexpensive non waxy flat soft rubber shoe. And 1 are $15 and great even on 12/12 pitch roofs inexpensive because shoes don't last long on roofs.

just look at what the laborers have on.! The majority of the roof installers wear rhino boots. They work just as good as cougar paws but for the fraction of the cost.

I used the cugar paws 20 years ago when I started working for a roofing contractor company. NO GOOD. I am using Timber land Pro work boots, alot better than those stupid cugar paws. Always wear a safety toe and anti skid shoes. I am a home inspector FYI.

DO NOT USE SKATER SHOES ON SHINGLES ABOVE A 7 PITCH IF THE SOLE IS WET. THEY WILL SLIP. YOU WILL FALL.
