The 8" Waterproof Insulated Steel Toe EH Lace Up boot is available in both a non-steel toe(29416) and steel toe(26330). These leathers are tanned using oils to protect and lubricate the fiber. They are generally thicker leathers and are considered work leathers although often used as casual boots.

ASTM F2413-05 standards require the toe-cap to be designed and built as an integral part of the footwear, and able to withstand a compression of 1750 to 2500 pounds (depending on rating specification) of force before the cap starts to crush or crack.

Electrical Hazard rated boots protect the wearer from electrical hazards if they step on a live wire (up to a certain voltage level) because of the non-conductive electrical shock resistant soles and heals. To be EH rated, footwear must first pass impact and compression resistance tests (i.e., incorporate ASTM approved steel toes). EH ratings are attained through an independent testing facility.

Boots are subjected to the harshest treatment of all outdoor wear - they are truly "under pressure" to get the job done. This is especially hard on insulation because it works by creating air pockets in the fibers - the compacting action of walking effectively destroys the insulating factor. Chippewa uses Thinuslate Ultra Insulation for footwear over the toes, vamp, heel and ankle for maximum warmth. Combined with the Chip-A-Tex Waterproof bootie, your feet are wrapped in waterproof warmth. The Vibram® Cascade Outsole is for aggressive outdoor use.

Care:

  1. Remove loose dirt or dust with brush or rag
  2. Replenish oils with an all-purpose conditioner. We recommend Montana Pitch Blend.
