They are made in America with both USA and globally sourced components by skilled craftsmen and women at Thorogood’s US plants.

These boots meet the ASTM F3445-21 slip-resistance standards for work boot soles. The shaft height is 8 inches. About this item: These boots are waterproof and feature a gusseted tongue to keep water and liquids at bay. The moisture-wicking lining inside pulls sweat away, allowing you to work without worry. They also have a composite safety toe that protects your feet from impact and compression hazards. The design of these boots makes them light and flexible, making them some of the best safety toe boots for men with dangerous jobs. These boots meet the ASTM F2413-18 safety toe standards. Additionally, they meet the ASTM F2413-18 electrical hazard resistance safety standards. These boots have a removable Ultimate Shock Absorption Footbed on a Poron Comfort Cushion Insole. Thorogood’s dual-density cushioning uses air-permeable open cells that resist moisture and absorb shock, making them very comfortable. The boots are constructed with Goodyear Storm Welt Construction, providing superior wear resistance and a moisture seal between the upper and midsole. This makes the boots extremely dependable, long-lasting, and fully-serviceable. The boots also have a Fiberglass Shank Construction, giving them the flex and strength needed to maintain their shape under heavy duress. The 8-inch flexible ankle support keeps you secure. From the brand: In 1892, Albert H. Weinbrenner opened a cobblery in Milwaukee with partner Joseph Peffer, serving "Jobbing" trades. In 1900, Albert H. Weinbrenner Co. was formed. In 1916, the first catalog was printed, and the company had more leather cutting machines than any other in the U.S. In 1917, the "Job-fitted" concept was introduced, and Weinbrenner became a major supplier of boots to the U.S. Army in WWI. In 1938, the company began producing safety footwear. In 1942, the company celebrated 50 years in business and converted to producing military footwear for the duration of WWII. In 1943, the company workers organized under the International Boot & Shoe Workers Union, maintaining an outstanding relationship with management. In 1964, Weinbrenner introduced The Official Boy Scout Boot: The Hike n' Camp, which became the company's best-selling boot. In 1988, the company was purchased by a local group, and the ThoroGard division was created, featuring high-tech occupational safety footwear. In 1992, Weinbrenner celebrated its 100th anniversary. In 2000, the employees took ownership of the company through ESOP. In 2001, Weinbrenner donated work boots to Ground Zero after the September 11 terror attacks. In 2014, the 1892 Heritage line of handcrafted lifestyle boots was introduced. In 2017, Weinbrenner celebrated its 125th anniversary and made a renewed commitment to upgrading and improving domestic facilities. In 2022, the company celebrated its 130th anniversary with the opening of a new factory and the launch of Thorogood's Square Toe Wellingtons. In 2023, sales continue to increase as Thorogood gains popularity and expands with new styles on the horizon.
