What Does ASTM Mean?
ASTM stands for the American Society for Testing and Materials. It’s an independent organization that sets standards for various products, including footwear. When you see “ASTM” on our boots, it means they’ve passed specific tests related to safety, performance, and quality.
ASTM Standards Explained
Our collection features boots that adhere to various ASTM standards. Here are some key ones:

How can I tell if a boot is ASTM-compliant?
Look for the ASTM certification label or designation on the boot or within the product description – that's your green light to know that your working boots meet the necessary safety standards.
ASTM Standards and the Law
ASTM standards play a critical role in ensuring workplace safety. They are not only guidelines for manufacturers but also influence laws and regulations. When authorities cite ASTM standards in contracts, government codes, or regulations, they effectively become mandatory. These standards protect workers, promote quality, and contribute to a safer work environment.
