Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of toe does the NC2080 have?
It has a plain (non-safety) toe with no ASTM F2413 toe rating, for a clean look and a roomy fit; it does carry EH electrical hazard protection. If you need a protective toe, the Classic 2.0 6" Steel Toe (NC2081) is the safety-toe version.
Is the NC2080 lined or unlined?
It's unlined — the full-grain leather is built to breathe and stay naturally cool, which makes it a comfortable choice for warm-weather wear.
What is the Vibram® 132 Lug outsole good for?
Its angled center lugs provide aggressive grip on both ascent and descent and across wet or dry surfaces, and the compound stays effective in extreme temperatures.
Is the NC2080 waterproof?
It's an unlined, breathable boot designed to stay cool rather than to keep water out. If you need waterproofing in a 6" boot, consider the waterproof Edge Walker 6" (25341).
How does the Classic 2.0 NC2080 fit?
It runs true to size — order the size you wear in athletic shoes, and choose Wide if you normally need an EE width. The plain toe leaves the forefoot roomy, the unlined leather relaxes quickly, and the orthotic insole is removable.
How do I care for the Classic 2.0?
Knock off dirt, wipe the leather clean, let the boot dry away from direct heat, and condition the leather every few months. Unlined boots dry out faster than lined ones, so condition regularly; Goodyear leather welt construction means a cobbler can resole it.
