Thorogood 1957 Series 8 Waterproof Work Boots for Men

Thorogood's premium full-grain saddle leather boots in their iconic moc toe work boot design, featuring a dark Briar Pitstop brown color (814-3800), are both comfortable and durable for demanding jobs. These American-made boots, crafted by skilled workers at Thorogood's US plants, are the result of the company's relentless focus on craftsmanship, innovation, and comfort, recognizing the importance of footwear to workers' livelihoods and job performance.

The boots' MAXWEAR WEDGE™ TRACTION OUTSOLE flexes better than other work boot outsoles, absorbing impacts and providing secure footing on loose gravel, wet, and oily surfaces, meeting ASTM F3445-21 Slip Test Standards for work boot soles. The 8-inch shaft height offers ample ankle support, while the gusseted tongue keeps water and liquids at bay, and the moisture-wicking lining pulls sweat away for a comfortable, dry work environment.

These electrically hazard-resistant boots meet ASTM F2413-18 safety standards, ensuring protection against electrical hazards. The removable Ultimate Shock Absorption Footbed, with its dual-density polyurethane concentration under the heel and ball strike zone, absorbs impacts and wicks away moisture, providing the most comfortable men's work boot on the market.

Thorogood's Goodyear Storm Welt Construction provides superior wear resistance and a moisture-tight seal between the upper and midsole, making these boots extremely dependable, long-lasting, and fully serviceable. The fiberglass shank construction gives the boots the flex and strength needed to maintain their shape under heavy use, while the 8-inch flexible ankle support keeps workers secure.

Thorogood's heritage and commitment to quality are evident in the company's timeline, which traces its origins back to 1892 when Albert H. Weinbrenner opened a cobblery in Milwaukee. Over the decades, the company has evolved, introducing innovative products, weathering wars, and transitioning to employee ownership, all while maintaining a strong relationship between management and workers.

Today, Thorogood continues to expand its offerings, including the introduction of its 1892 Heritage line of handcrafted lifestyle boots and the recent launch of its first western wear product, the Thorogood Square Toe Wellingtons. As the company celebrates its 130th anniversary, its commitment to quality, innovation, and serving the needs of specialized workers remains steadfast.
