Made in the USA with the precision and pride of Union craftsmanship, the Carolina men's work boot starts with a Roughout Quarter Leather Upper and delivers steel toe protection in a construction designed to meet the expectations of American workers. The Goodyear Welt construction method stitches through the upper, welt, and outsole with a strength that outlasts cement-bonded alternatives, and allows the boot to be resoled when the outsole finally wears down. Inside, a cushioned footbed absorbs impact and supports the arch through extended wear, helping reduce the foot fatigue that accumulates over long shifts on hard job site surfaces, while breathable mesh lining promotes airflow inside the boot, helping regulate temperature and prevent the heat buildup that causes discomfort during active wear. For added protection on the job, Electrical Hazard rating provides secondary protection against open electrical circuits up to 600 volts in dry conditions. The oil and slip resisting outsole delivers dependable traction on wet, oily, and grease-covered surfaces, giving workers the footing stability that active job sites demand. For workers who demand American-made quality, Union Built construction, and reliable job site protection every single day, this Carolina work boot delivers on all counts.
