Medical personnel love crocs, but not sure if they use those ones with holes on it. My wife is a chef and she loves them too.

I think they aren't allowed to use the ones with holes and have to use relatively stiff ones, it would be dangerous to drop a Sharp or pointy thing and get it directly into your skin.

Aren't chefs supposed to wear steel toed footwear? I wonder if steel toed crocs are common.

Nah, lmao, they don't use hammers or shit like that.

Idk if anywhere else is like this, but in Colombia meat is so shit that people have hammers to hit the meat to soft it.

But they deal with many knives (and other sharp objects) and super hot liquids, and I imagine if you are working in a kitchen that serves a lot of people, you are also going to be dealing with some heavy stuff (eg. kegs and big pots)

Knives are sharp, but they aren't going to pierce a shoe, or a croc (without the holes), for falling down a meter. Also, they have to constantly move around they would get tired af with heavy shoes with metal plates on it.
