Gear up for the demands of the workday in this rugged, unlined men's 8" composite toe work boot. This tough-performing boot features a highly durable 90-degree heel with rubber lug outsole and a triple-rib steel shank for extra durability and support. Key Features of the Carolina CA8628 Composite Safety Toe — A non-metallic toe for environments where steel isn't appropriate; meets ASTM F2413 I-75/C-75, with reduced cold transfer. Kharthoum Cigar Leather Upper — Rugged, classic full-leather build. Unlined Interior — Nothing between foot and leather; cooler in warm weather, and it molds to the foot. Removable AG7™ Polyurethane Footbed — Carolina's comfort system with enhanced arch support. Removable Kiltie — The fringed leather flap over the laces; shields the lace area and lifts off if you prefer. Electrical Hazard Rated — Tested to withstand up to 18,000 volts at 60Hz for one minute without leakage. Triple-Rib Steel Shank — Heavy-duty stability underfoot. Welt Construction & Oil-Resisting Rubber Lug Outsole (90° heel) — Resoleable, with a defined heel for climbing. Unlined, and Why That's the Point With no lining fabric, there's nothing to bunch or wear through, and the leather molds directly to your foot over the first weeks. It runs cooler than a lined boot, which is the reason to choose this one for warm-weather work. The 90° Heel A squared-off heel breast gives a positive edge on a ladder rung or a form board — the reason loggers and linemen favor it over a rounded heel. Underneath, a triple-rib steel shank resists the twist of standing on that edge. Why Choose the CA8628? A rugged, resoleable, unlined composite-toe boot with aggressive heel traction — built for warm weather and rough ground. Similar Styles to Consider Want waterproofing on the same composite platform?
