This sturdy work boot won't ease up when things get tough. Constructed with a highly abrasion-resistant Ever-Guard™ leather upper, this ankle boot offers superior flexibility and durability with a steel shank and comfy contoured footbed to cradle and support your feet for long days on demanding job sites. For hardworking impact, safety, and heat protection, we also added an external, hinged metatarsal guard that even offers protection when squatting, a steel safety toe, electrical hazard protection, heat-resistant thread on the upper and welt, and a heat-, oil-, slip-, and abrasion-resistant, non-marking rubber outsole for rugged traction. The breathable, moisture-wicking lining is made of ReBOTL™ material containing at least 50% recycled plastic and includes an antimicrobial treatment to help keep them smelling fresh.
