Durability for the Long Days
The work day can be hard on the feet and ankles — that's why a durable, comfortable boot is a necessity. Building on the tried-and-true original Crafter, the Crafter 2.0 still accommodates wider feet while adding a plusher, more breathable footbed, now paired with a lightweight composite safety toe.
Key Features of the Danner Crafter 2.0 6" Composite Toe 17421
-
Composite Safety Toe (NMT): A non-metallic toe that meets ASTM F2413 for impact and compression resistance, won't trigger metal detectors, and doesn't conduct heat or cold.
-
Full-Grain, Oiled Leather Upper: Oiled leather is tested for strength and durability, and is more resistant to water and everyday wear.
-
Waterproof Danner® Dry Liner: A 100% waterproof barrier keeps water out while letting moisture escape, for all-day dry comfort.
-
Danner® DCS+ Footbed: A molded thermoplastic polyurethane cup for arch support, memory foam and a cushioned heel for shock absorption, plus air vents and a mesh top cover for breathability.
-
Danner Comfort System: A lightweight cup-sole construction paired with the dual-density footbed, built for all-day, everyday comfort.
-
Electrical Hazard (EH) Rated: Non-conductive soles help protect against electrical shock in dry conditions under ASTM F2413.
Why a Composite Toe?
Unlike a steel toe, the non-metallic composite toe won't set off metal detectors and doesn't transmit heat or cold the way metal can. It still meets the same ASTM F2413 impact and compression standard, paired with the Crafter 2.0's generous, comfortable toe box.
A Different Kind of Comfort Build
The Crafter 2.0 uses a lightweight cup-sole construction on a nylon shank rather than Danner's stitchdown build. The result is a noticeably plusher, more athletic-feeling safety-toe work boot with memory foam cushioning built in from the factory.
Why Choose the Danner Crafter 2.0 6" Composite Toe 17421?
If you need certified safety-toe protection without giving up all-day comfort, this is it. ASTM F2413 impact and compression protection, a waterproof Danner Dry liner, and the plush DCS+ footbed come together in a boot built for long days on your feet.
