is the sole thick enough to drive a garden spade

Yes it is, although if I were doing a lot of digging I wouldn't choose them.

In my opinion, no. The sole isn't exactly thin but it's very flexible - if you walk over rocks or large gravel, you can definitely feel it.

I have used it spading. Sole is a heavy rubber - much heavier than a tennis shoe

The sole is thick however, I feel it is too soft to be rigid enough for a spade unless your soil has been worked and a spade can be pushed in without a great deal of pressure. My feeling is you would notice the back pressure from the spade and your foot would tire quickly. I use mine in the garden however, my soil is very well worked and it is relatively easy to push a spade into. The shoes are otherwise fantastic and I'm confident you would find them a joy to wear.

Yes, they have a lot of traction. Great for working in the yard. I've done that a couple of times now.

No too thick. Just 2 maybe 4 depending on fabric weight. But no batting. Hope that helps

It might if the hex part and notch are in the same position. Bosch Brute [Bosch HS2169 Brute 1-1/8 in. Hex Hammer Steel 5-1/2 in. Clay Spade]for $69 and the shaft looks longer than this. I own this attachment and use it with the Neiko electric jack hammer. My main complaint is the length is short so your bent over as you use it but otherwise it is great. For $20 more you will get a clay spade that you know will work and appears to have a longer shaft which has a lot of benefits especially as you dig a hole.

No. As ankle supports go this one is good. The thickest part (still not real thick) is above a low cut shoe.

I wear 7.5 medium women shoe. The balance held thick sole shoe tennis shoes but not thinner sole. My tennis shoe or my boot did not align with my non-injured foot for ended up off balance. I tried wearing with thinner sole but it was loose and became a safety hazard. If you get free return and don't mind hassle of returning, it might be worth the time. Overall, I was disappointed for returning it was not worth the money and I did not use it. If your in north coastal San Diego county, you could have mine.

I am not sure, but have you tried using course grit sand paper to rough up the sole? Perhaps a heavy cut wood rasp would work.

Medium thickness yes. If they are smaller than a normal pick size it may be difficult.

If you are talking about a leather work glove, the answer would be no. The grip is substantial but not big enough for thick gloves. It would work with rubber gloves or thin gardening gloves.

Probably, but it would depend on the tread of the boot. You would want something grippy like the bottom of a skate shoe, not hard, for the pins to dig into. Five Ten makes hiking and work boots that would work great.

It's about a 1 1/2 inch thick heel. The sole is curved to help with taking normal strides, so you can roll the stride from heel to toe.

I was surprised how thick the bottom of the sock was when I first got them. I have two pairs that I use for Winter and Spring hiking. I would suggest that if you are using them for hiking that you allow extra room in your boots to account for the thickness. I also used a sock liner, but found them unnecessary.

It's spade style. Works ok for me, but is not a rake. I have a Golden and a Great Pyrenese, so it has to work well, and does after some practice.

Probably not . they do have make thick gloves you can buy at hardware stores. Go to tool area and ask salesperson

No. This is a down-filled slipper- like bootie that has a sturdy sole, but not sturdy enough to be worn outdoors.

No, but I can tell you that the sole reinforcement is thin and doesn't last a long time in the pool however, again due to thinness, you have a good feeling for the ground. I intend to buy another pair soon.

I have not tried anything that thick but the nozzle and tube that comes out is a rather good size, from looking you can have daiquiris but of course that is my opinion.
