Frequently Asked Questions
Is the toe metal?
No, a non-metallic composite toe. Note that the shank underfoot is a triple-rib steel plate, so the boot as a whole is not metal-free and will register at a detector-controlled access point.
Is it waterproof?
Yes , via Carolina's sealed SCUBALINER™ membrane, which is a bonded barrier rather than a surface treatment, so it does not wash off over time.
What is a lace-to-toe logger?
The laces run all the way down to the toe, letting you adjust fit across the full front of the boot for a more secure hold. Loggers favour it because it locks the heel back and stops the foot sliding forward on descents.
Can it be resoled?
Yes. Welt construction stitches the lug outsole to the upper rather than bonding it, so a cobbler can replace the sole when the lugs wear flat — which on a logger is usually well before the leather gives out.
