Waterproof Warmth Without the Bulk
The Super DNA 8" pairs a waterproof breathable membrane and full-grain leather with a Dri-Lex® lining and 400g of 3M Thinsulate™, keeping feet dry and warm through cold, wet conditions. The patented T-Bar cushion collar takes pressure off the lower leg so the boot stays comfortable shift after shift.
Grip and Support for the Job
A Goodyear® leather welt anchors the Vibram® Cascade TC4+ outsole for oil- and slip-resistant traction, while a metallic shank adds stability underfoot. The 8" lace-up height gives solid ankle support without the weight of a taller logger.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of toe does the Super DNA 59416 have?
It has a soft (non-safety) toe for a roomy, comfortable fit. If your job requires a protective toe, the 8" Steel Toe 400G Waterproof (59330) is a closely matched steel-toe alternative.
Is the 59416 warm enough for winter work?
Yes. It's insulated with 400g of 3M Thinsulate™ plus a Dri-Lex® lining, which traps heat while wicking moisture, a solid choice for cold, wet outdoor conditions.
Is the Super DNA 59416 comfortable for standing all day?
It's built for it: a patented T-Bar cushion collar reduces lower-leg stress, a cushioned insole adds underfoot comfort, and the Goodyear® welt gives a stable, supportive platform.
Do these boots need a break-in period?
Like most full-grain leather Goodyear-welt boots, expect a short break-in as the leather softens and molds to your foot. Wearing them for progressively longer stretches early on helps.
