Lightweight, Waterproof Protection
A composite toe protects without steel's weight, and the sealed SCUBALINER™ membrane keeps feet dry.
Nothing Metal, Eyelets Included
Composite toe, composite shank, composite hardware. Most “non-metallic” boots stop at the toe cap and leave a steel shank in the arch or metal eyelets up the front — the Challenge doesn't. There is no metal anywhere in the boot's structure.
Hiker Comfort
A Triple Tuff PU footbed over an EVA midsole cushions each step, making it comfortable for warehouse and jobsite wear.
Why Choose the CA5593?
A lightweight, waterproof, fully non-metallic composite-toe moc-toe hiker for warehouse and general work.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there any metal in the boot?
No. The composite toe, the shank, and the lace hardware are all non-metallic — there is no metal in the boot's structure.
Is it waterproof?
Yes. Carolina's SCUBALINER™ is a sealed membrane behind the upper rather than a surface coating that wears off.
What is a moc toe, and does it fit differently?
A moccasin-style toe: the upper is stitched in a U-shape across the front rather than seamed at the tip. It gives a rounder, roomier toe box than a standard last, which is much of why moc toes are known for comfort.
How does cement construction affect the boot?
The outsole is bonded directly to the upper rather than stitched through a welt, which keeps the boot light and lets it flex from the first day, with no break-in underfoot.
