Thorogood American Heritage 8 Steel Toe Work Boots for Men

Thorogood's moc toe work boot design features DURABLE FULL-GRAIN LEATHER BOOTS that are both comfortable and able to withstand demanding jobs. These boots are available in Tobacco (804-4208), Trail Crazyhorse (804-4478), and Midnight Black (804-6208) colors. Made in the USA with USA and globally sourced components by skilled craftsmen and women at Thorogood's US plants, these AMERICAN MADE boots protect your feet from on-site impact and compression hazards, while keeping them light and flexible, making them some of the best safety toe boots for men with dangerous jobs.

The MAXWEAR WEDGE TRACTION OUTSOLE flexes better than other work boot outsoles, absorbing impacts and protecting your feet and ankles while working on difficult surfaces, keeping you on your feet on loose gravel and wet and oily surfaces. Meeting ASTM F3445-21 slip-resistance standards, the outsole is also designed to withstand or reduce damage due to oil. Additionally, these MAXWear Wedge work boots meet ASTM F2413-18 electrical hazard resistance safety standards, providing EH RESISTANCE.

The REMOVABLE ULTIMATE SHOCK ABSORPTION FOOTBED uses dual-density polyurethane concentrated under the heel and ball strike zone to absorb impacts and wick away moisture, offering the most comfortable men's work boots on the market.

The Thorogood brand has a rich history dating back to 1892, when Albert H. Weinbrenner, at the age of 27, opened a cobblery in Milwaukee with partner Joseph Peffer, serving the "Jobbing" trades. The company was formally established as the Albert H. Weinbrenner Co. in 1900, and over the years, it has reached several milestones:

• 1916: First catalog printed, with the company having more leather cutting machines than any other in the U.S.
• 1917: "Job-fitted" concept introduced, and the company became a major contributor of boots to the U.S. Army in WWI.
• 1938: Company takes first steps into safety footwear production.
• 1942: Company celebrates 50 years in business, converting to all-military footwear for the duration of WWII.
• 1964: The Official Boy Scout Boot, the Hike n' Camp, is introduced with a wedge sole and moccasin-style stitching, becoming the company's best-selling boot of all time.
• 1988: Company purchased by a local group, including six employees, and the "ThoroGard" division is created, featuring high-tech occupational safety footwear.
• 2000: Weinbrenner employees took ownership of the company through an ESOP.
• 2014: The 1892 Heritage line of handcrafted, lifestyle boots is introduced, built on the iconic No. 60 last.
• 2022: Weinbrenner celebrates 130 years as a company, with the opening of a new factory in Merrill, WI and the launch of the first western wear product, Thorogood's Square Toe Wellingtons.

Today, Thorogood continues to gain popularity, and sales are increasing as the brand expands with many new styles on the horizon.
