Built to Keep Distractions and Discomfort Out
The Genesis Collection was crafted with a goal: bring blue-collar workers everything they need to steer clear of distractions and discomfort. This 6″ Chestnut boot keeps you warm and dry with comfort that lasts day in and day out.
The nitrile rubber outsole delivers exceptional slip, heat, oil, and chemical resistance, paired with a soft PU midsole and pedorthist-designed insole. A wider oblique toe box gives your toes all the room they need, and the boot is completely waterproof with a water evacuation channel built into the outsole.
