Carolina Men's Buster 8" Composite Toe Waterproof Metguard Work Boot -Brown- CA9582
You'll be equipped for anything that comes your way in these ultra-tough boots fortified with the protection of an internal metguard. It's designed with a waterproof construction and a composite safety toe, plus a rugged oil- and slip-resisting outsole. Key Features of the Carolina CA9582 Composite Safety Toe Cap — A non-metallic toe meeting ASTM F2413 for impact (I/75) and compression (C/75), with reduced cold transfer. Polyurethane Internal MetGuard — Built inside the boot, so it flexes with the foot. Carolina rates its metatarsal guards to ASTM F2413 Class Mt75. Kharthoum Cigar Leather Upper — Rugged full-grain leather. Waterproof SCUBALINER™ — Carolina's sealed proprietary waterproof lining system. Mesh Lining — Breathable against the foot. Removable Memory Foam Footbed — Cushioned support; comes out for orthotics. PC2™ Internal Polyurethane Midsole — Shock absorption underfoot. Non-Metallic Shank — Composite support with no steel in it. Electrical Hazard Rated — Tested to withstand up to 18,000 volts at 60Hz for one minute without leakage. Cement Construction & Heavy-Duty Oil- & Slip-Resisting Rubber Outsole — A bonded sole that keeps the boot light and flexible. What a Metatarsal Guard Actually Protects A safety toe covers the toes and nothing else. The metatarsals — the long bones running from your toes back toward the ankle — sit exposed under thin leather on an ordinary boot. A dropped die, a rolled pipe, or a load slipping off a forklift lands there. Nothing Metal in the Toe, the Arch, or the Guard Composite toe, composite shank, polyurethane guard. All three of the components that are usually steel are not steel here — which is much of why an 8" met-guard boot can stay this light, and why the toe box doesn't go cold in winter. Internal, and Why That Matters Day to Day The guard sits between the layers of the upper rather than strapped over the lacing. It flexes as the boot flexes, adds nothing to the outside profile, and gives you nothing to snag on a lad
