Carolina Men's Amp Hi 8" Broad Toe Wedge Work Boot - Dark Oak - CA8049
The Amp Hi CA8049 is a tough, comfort-focused 8" wedge work boot with a broad toe and extra-thick footbed cushioning — built for long stretches on flat, hard surfaces, on a Goodyear welt you can resole. Key Features of the Carolina CA8049 Soft Broad Toe — No safety toe cap; a wide toe box with generous forefoot room. Dark Oak Pioneer Leather Upper — Rugged, supple full-leather build. Extra-Thick Pillow Cushion™ Footbed — A deep layer of contouring memory foam. Rubber Midsole — Shock absorption underfoot. Electrical Hazard Rated — Tested to withstand up to 18,000 volts at 60Hz for one minute without leakage. Steel Shank — Underfoot stability and support. Goodyear Welt Construction — Stitched, not bonded; fully resoleable. Oil-Resisting Polyurethane Airthrust Wedge Outsole — Flat wedge tread for smooth, finished surfaces. Why a Wedge Sole A wedge puts the entire sole in contact with the ground, spreading your weight evenly with no separate heel to catch on a rung or a form edge. On concrete, finished floors, and roof decking that's a real advantage — which is why wedges dominate framing, concrete, and warehouse work. On loose dirt or gravel, a lugged heel grips better. Comfort First The extra-thick Pillow Cushion™ footbed and broad toe box are the point of this boot. Feet swell across a shift, and a standard toe box starts to pinch when they do. Why Choose the CA8049? A comfortable, resoleable, broad-toe wedge boot for workers who spend long days on hard, flat surfaces and don't need a safety toe.

No. This is a soft broad-toe boot with no toe cap and no ASTM impact or compression rating — it won't satisfy a site requirement for protective footwear. Carolina offers the Amp Hi in a steel-toe version if you need one. Can it be resoled? Yes. Goodyear welt construction stitche
