Safety Features

STEEL SAFETY TOE: In 1995 OSHA began enforcing a new standard for personal protective equipment. As part of this standard employers now require ASTM F2413-24 rated safety footwear in areas where employees are exposed to injury as a result of falling or rolling objects. All steel toe boots with this icon meet or exceed ASTM F2413-24 I/C standards.
METATARSAL GUARD: Metatarsal guard shoes protect both the toes and the metatarsal bone behind the toes. Metatarsal guard shoes are required in any environment where injuries can occur to the metatarsal bone. They are most commonly used in foundries, welding, air product distribution and other heavy manufacturing. All styles marked with the \"MG\" icon meet the ASTM F2413-24 Mt standards.
ELECTRICAL HAZARD: The soles of EH shoes provide a barrier to protect employees from open electrical currents up to 600 volts. EH shoes are often needed in maintenance, welding and engineering positions. All styles marked with the “EH” icon in this catalog meet the ASTM F2413-24 EH / ASTM F2892-24 EH standards.
HEAT RESISTANT 572F: These shoes feature outsoles that resist high heat to create a more durable work boot. Heat Resistant: 300C / 572F
SLIP RESISTANT: Slip resistant safety footwear is the fastest growing segment of the safety footwear industry. For many employers with wet, oily, and/or greasy floors, it is common sense to require slip resistant safety footwear. Slip related injuries can be extremely costly. No shoe is slip proof, however employers who require slip resistant shoes can reduce worker’s compensation claims.
USA MADE/ASSEMBLED: The supplier is proud to offer several styles of safety shoes that are either made or assembled in the USA.
UNION MADE: These styles are produced by the United Food & Commercial Workers International Union in USA Plants.
Solid Upper (no mesh): Footwear constructed with non-mesh materials in the upper, offering full coverage and enhanced protection. These styles are ideal for environments where exposure to debris, liquids, or contaminants is a concern.
