I supply everything except socks and boxers, a cheap set of boots is £30 and they last 6 months why would you not?

You don't have to buy boots as its personal preference of an employee to choose which ones he/ she wants. 
You can insist on certain specifications though ie non slip soles. It is up to you to decide if you want to subsidise a purchase of footwear.
As far as I'm aware only safety boots (ppe) can be put as business  expense without a business logo on them.

If you do not provide a full uniform you leave it open to wearing  whatever they like and soon they look scruffy. This, for a saving of a few quid a month.
