Thorogood Men's American Heritage 6 Moc Toe Work Boots

Thorogood's MAXWEAR WEDGE work boots are designed to provide superior comfort, durability, and safety for workers in demanding environments. Crafted with 100% full-grain leather, these American-made boots are built to withstand the toughest jobs.

The MAXWEAR WEDGE outsole is the standout feature of these work boots. Engineered to be more flexible and shock-absorbing than traditional work boot outsoles, it helps to protect your feet and ankles when working on difficult surfaces. This outsole also delivers exceptional traction, keeping you stable and secure on flat, wet, oily, and loose gravel surfaces. Importantly, it meets the ASTM F3445-21 slip-resistance standards.

In addition to the superior outsole, these work boots offer excellent electrical hazard (EH) protection. They meet the ASTM F2892-18 EH safety standards, safeguarding you from potential electrical risks on the job.

Comfort is a crucial aspect of any work boot, and Thorogood has addressed this with the inclusion of a Poron Comfort Cushion footbed. This removable footbed utilizes dual-density polyurethane in the heel and ball strike zones to absorb impacts and wick away moisture, ensuring your feet stay comfortable throughout the workday.

The Goodyear storm welt construction of these boots provides superior wear resistance and a moisture-tight seal between the upper and midsole, making them exceptionally durable and long-lasting.

Thorogood's legacy of quality and innovation is evident in the design and manufacturing of these work boots. The company's history dates back to 1892, when Albert H. Weinbrenner opened a cobblery in Milwaukee with his partner, Joseph Peffer. Over the decades, Thorogood has become a trusted name in the industry, known for its commitment to craftsmanship and worker safety.

From the introduction of the "Job-fitted" concept in 1917 to the development of the iconic Hike n' Camp boot in 1964, Thorogood has consistently been at the forefront of work boot innovation. The company's products have also played a significant role in supporting the U.S. military, with Thorogood boots being a major contributor during both World Wars.

In more recent years, Thorogood has continued to evolve, launching the ThoroGard division for high-tech occupational safety footwear and the 1892 Heritage line of handcrafted, lifestyle boots. The company's commitment to its employees is also noteworthy, with Thorogood becoming employee-owned through an ESOP in 2000.

As Thorogood celebrates its 130th anniversary in 2023, the brand is poised for continued growth and success. With the opening of a new factory in Merrill, Wisconsin, and the launch of its first western wear product, the Square Toe Wellingtons, Thorogood is demonstrating a renewed dedication to upgrading its facilities and expanding its product offerings.
