About this item:

These premium full-grain saddle leather boots are proudly made in the USA by skilled craftsmen and women at Thorogood's US plants. The moc toe work boot design not only offers comfort but also withstands tough jobs. The boots are available in Tobacco (804-4308) and Trail Crazyhorse (804-4378), which have a wax finish, giving them a vintage, Old West look.

Designed with steel toes, these boots provide protection against on-site impact and compression hazards without compromising flexibility. They are considered among the best safety toe boots for men with dangerous jobs, meeting ASTM F2413-18 safety toe standards. Additionally, these work boots meet ASTM F2413-18 electrical hazard resistance safety standards.

The removable ultimate shock absorption footbed on the Poron Comfort Cushion Insole guarantees a comfortable experience. Thorogood's dual-density cushioning with air-permeable open cells resists moisture and absorbs shock, making these boots the most comfortable option available.
