Thorogood Men's American Heritage 8 Moc Toe Safety Boot

The Thorogood work boots you're considering are the result of a long and proud heritage. Originating in the USA, these boots feature a MAXWEAR 90™ TRACTION OUTSOLE WITH HEEL that outperforms other work boot outsoles. The flexible sole absorbs impacts, protecting your feet and ankles as you navigate challenging surfaces, maintaining traction on loose gravel, wet, and oily terrain. These boots meet the ASTM F3445-21 slip-resistance standard for work footwear.

With an 8-inch shaft height and premium full-grain saddle leather construction, these American-made boots are both comfortable and durable, ready to stand up to the demands of your job. Available in Tobacco (804-4308) and Trail Crazyhorse (804-4378) colorways, the latter featuring a special wax application for a vintage, Old West aesthetic.

Thorogood's commitment to quality and safety is evident in these work boots. The steel toe design meets ASTM F2413-18 safety standards, protecting your feet from impact and compression hazards while maintaining a lightweight, flexible feel – making these some of the best safety toe boots for men with dangerous occupations.

The electrical hazard (EH) resistance of these boots also complies with ASTM F2413-18 standards, safeguarding you from electrical dangers. Underneath, the removable Ultimate Shock Absorption Footbed on the Poron Comfort Cushion Insole provides unparalleled comfort, with the air-permeable open cell design resisting moisture and absorbing shock.

The Goodyear Storm Welt Construction further enhances the durability and moisture resistance of these work boots, ensuring superior wear and a long-lasting, fully-serviceable life.

Thorogood's heritage is deeply rooted in American craftsmanship. The company was founded in 1892 by Albert H. Weinbrenner, who opened a cobblery in Milwaukee with partner Joseph Peffer, serving the "Jobbing" trades. The company grew steadily, becoming a major contributor of boots to the U.S. Army during World War I and introducing the "Job-fitted" concept.

Over the decades, Thorogood (formerly Weinbrenner) has remained at the forefront of innovation, transitioning into safety footwear production in the 1930s and serving the military during World War II. The company's most iconic product, the Hike n' Camp boot, was introduced in 1964 and has remained a best-seller to this day.

In recent years, Thorogood has undergone a renewed commitment to upgrading its domestic facilities, manufacturing methods, and computer systems, ensuring the continued quality and innovation that has defined the brand for over 130 years. As the company looks to the future, new styles and expansions, such as the introduction of western wear, promise an exciting chapter in Thorogood's enduring legacy.
