You need to stay focused when doing something dangerous, like pounding rebar or....
Looks like an accident waiting to happen.

But why did you buy them in the first place? It must have been they were on sale??

If they're purple that's ok and makes some sense, but from the photo they definitely look pink so I was wondering who would even make pink boots for men and why?

The use of color is cultural anyway. Japanese men are fond of pastels and it is common here to see a group of sun burnt construction workers dressed in matching pink or lavendar outfits. The cement trucks here are sometimes pink and lavendar as well.

shuffling around mexico city in the mid seventies we noted and abundance of vw bugs that were either hot fuscha pink
or rescue lime green. it might have been competing taxi outfits if memory serves.
on any flight i angle for a window seat, and my nose adheres to the plexi. the view from above mexico city revealed the true extent
of the craze, speckled throughout the city, no highlighter necessary to emphasis the numbers involved.
i'm at a complete loss as to how to tie this back to the hurt cragman, but so it goes. how about, let the healing resume!

Thank goodness we have antibiotics even if it seems to take quite a few of then to do the job these days. I've seen people in Nepal with gangrene from those kinds of wounds. Anyway, that's what I think about whenever I suffer through modern medicine - at least I have access to it which is better than the alternative.

Just pull on your pink or purple boots and go kick some ice dude...

hey there cragman... say, wow, why is that, that it keeps getting reinfected... ?
was there something that was never cleaned well, initially?
just curious...
say, or is it just that bones are highly upset when "hurt upon"
and refuse to heal with ease?
sure am glad you got yet another mess cleaned up as to it all...
you are making us more than a mite worried, even as we worried about
pat, a ways back...
say, keep getting well, and keep up the good spirits...
(sure you ain't pushing it much, by agrivating it, due to walking as to pressure on it? mmmeaning that i do know, movement is neccesary, etc)...
well, god bless...
:)
still praying, too...
