I’d presume Russian or Central market? Don’t know the quality you’d find though.

If you type safety shoes phnom penh into Google, you will get a whole list of places. The first on the list was Kings Safetyware:

Possibly the only truly international safety footwear brand worldwide, KING’S has satisfied wearers en masse in workplaces in over 40 countries, providing them with quality standards-accredited, comfort-to-feet and value-to-employer safety and productivity. :D

KING'S KWS803
Full grain leather laced boot
Colour: Black
Size : 3 - 13
Steel Toe

You can find these at most of the local markets

But seriously, last time I tried to find a decent pair of safety boots in PP I was sorely disappointed with the quality and variety available. Many of the websites are displaying products that they don't actually stock (surprise, surprise!).

A few years ago I did score a decent pair of Cat safety boots from TTP Market, they were original but just didn't pass QC obviously as they were missing a lace eyelet :lol:

Bought a pair of Caterpillar at Sovanna Mall (City Mall) two years ago, $110, steel toecaps

No jackboot jokes, s'il vous plait

However, rumour has it Sovanna is disintegrating now

City Mart closed years ago. Sovanna Mall recently shut down totally.

I bought these a few months ago, I only wore them a few times in the countryside as they felt really heavy like Frankenstein boots. Comfortable enough, steel toes. Some Korean company called K2 makes them as "electrician's shoes". Only $8, I'll have a look and see if the shop has any more.

City Mart/Mall were having a closing down clearance a couple months ago, not sure if they're closed now, got some great bargains including 2x pairs of Cat boots (1x tan, 1x brown - non steel toed) for $10 a pair, pair of Merrells for $10, shirts t-shirts, shorts under $10 each. Shame its closing that was a great store.

City Mart closed years ago. Sovanna Mall recently shut down totally. 
City Mart at Sorya Mall closed, and relocated to Sovanna Mall. Interesting, I didn't realise the whole mall was closing.

Lucky Legend posted steel cap shoes. I agree. The danger lurking around 136/172 an Riverside after 2am is real. One needs to wear such footwear as protection.
I kicked a ladyboy in the nutz once wearing jandles(no socks) .
suffered a broken foot and a severe beating. I dealt to 3 before the reinforcements ran in and smashed me.

Amazing. Thank you.

$37. They have a tiny shop on diamond island that I’m probably the first person to ever visit.

Been wearing them a bit - they’re no fine Italian loafer, but I can wear them all day and walk around with them and they’re fine. If I had to wear them every day, I would want something better though.
