The ultimate 'daily driver' for tradespeople, featuring a Goodyear Storm Welt construction and the proprietary MAXWear Wedge outsole that reduces strain on concrete surfaces. It balances high-quality domestic leather with an immediate out-of-the-box comfort that many heritage boots lack.

Ingredients & Purity

Tobacco Oil-Tanned full-grain leather. Uses a fiberglass shank for lightweight support (EH rated) rather than steel.

Scientific Evidence

ASTM F2413-18 or F2892-18 certified depending on the specific model (Steel toe vs. Soft toe). Tested for 18,000 volts of Electrical Hazard resistance.

Brand Transparency

Manufactured by Weinbrenner Shoe Company, a 100% employee-owned company in Wisconsin. Clear labeling of 'Made in USA with globally sourced components'.

Value Assessment

Excellent value at the $250 price point; it is one of the most affordable high-quality Goodyear welted boots on the market.

Why Not Alternatives?

Beats Red Wing in comfort for those working on flat, hard surfaces (like indoor construction) due to the wedge sole and Poron comfort cushion. It is significantly more affordable than PNW custom brands while maintaining a resoleable welt.
