Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of toe does the Baldor have?
It has a steel safety toe that meets ASTM F2413 impact and compression standards, plus an EH rating for electrical environments.
How does the Baldor handle moisture?
The black oiled full-grain leather is naturally water-resistant and will shed light moisture, but this is not a waterproof boot — it has no waterproof membrane. If you need to stay dry in wet conditions, the Paladin 8" Steel Toe Waterproof Logger (73101) is a waterproof option.
What is the Vibram® 360 T Plus outsole good for?
Its wide, aggressive lugs give strong grip and stability on uneven terrain, and the compound is built for high-heat environments while staying oil- and slip-resistant.
Can the Baldor be resoled?
Yes, its Goodyear® leather welt construction allows the boot to be resoled, extending its working life.
