It's built for demanding trades — mining, welding, foundry, farming and heavy industry — where impact, sharp debris and electrical hazards are part of the job.
Waterproof, Tall and Easy to Wear
Waterproof full-grain leather and a Dri-Lex® lining keep feet dry and comfortable, while the 10" pull-on Wellington shaft gives extra coverage and slips on and off without laces. The Vibram® Alpha Plus outsole holds up to oil and high heat on industrial surfaces, and the resoleable Goodyear® leather welt keeps the boot in service for the long haul.

Frequently Asked Questions
What protection does the Serious+ 72331 offer?
It's a multi-hazard boot: a nano composite safety toe, an XRD® metatarsal guard, a puncture-resisting midsole, and an EH rating — all meeting the relevant ASTM F2413 standards (including Mt and PR).
What is a met guard and who needs one?
A metatarsal guard shields the top of your foot — the area a standard toe cap doesn't cover, from heavy falling objects and impact. It's valued in mining, welding, foundry and heavy-industrial work where that risk is real.
What's the advantage of the 10" pull-on design?
The tall 10" Wellington shaft gives extra lower-leg coverage and slips on and off without laces, convenient for jobs where you're taking boots on and off or want no laces to snag.
Is the Serious+ 72331 waterproof?
Yes, it uses waterproof full-grain leather and a breathable membrane, with a Dri-Lex® lining to help keep the inside comfortable.
How does the Serious+ 72331 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 nano composite toe's thinner walls leave more room in the toe box, a 10-inch pull-on should feel snug at the instep on day one, and the orthotic insole cushions from the first wear.
How do I care for the Serious+?
Knock off dirt, wipe the leather clean, let the boot dry away from direct heat, and condition the leather every few months. Goodyear leather welt construction means a cobbler can resole it when the Vibram outsole wears. Store it upright so the shaft does not crease.
