The metatarsal guard is built inside the boot from breathable open-cell polyurethane and rubber, so it protects the top of the foot from impact without an external shield over the laces.
Built for Heat and Hard Wear
Protective thread on the upper and welt resists heat, Ever-Guard leather stands up to abrasion, and the Timberland PRO rubber outsole resists hot contact up to 572°F (300°C) — durability for welding, foundry, and mill work.

Frequently Asked Questions
What safety standards does the Met Guard TB185516214 meet?
The asymmetrical steel toe meets ASTM F2413 impact and compression, the internal metatarsal guard meets ASTM F2413 Mt requirements when tested to ASTM F2412, and the boot carries EH protection under ASTM F2413 and F2892.
How does the internal met guard work?
It is an anatomical guard made of breathable open-cell polyurethane and rubber, built inside the boot over the top of the foot to absorb impact without a flap over the laces.
How does the Met Guard boot fit?
It fits true to size — order the size you wear in athletic shoes, and choose Wide if you normally need an EE width. Steel toes fit slightly closer than composite, the internal met guard sits over the instep, and the padded leather collar keeps the ankle comfortable.
Can the Met Guard boot be resoled?
Yes. Goodyear welt construction creates a durable mechanical bond between the upper and outsole, so a qualified cobbler can resole it instead of replacing the boot.
How does it compare with other Timberland PRO met guard boots?
The TB185516214 pairs a steel toe and internal met guard with a heat-resistant outsole and Goodyear welt. The Excave (TB189652214) and the Endurance 6" Metguard (TB1A172T214) are other steel-toe met guard boots in the Timberland PRO line.
How do I care for the Met Guard boot?
Knock off dirt, wipe the leather clean, let the boot dry away from direct heat, and condition the leather every few months. Brush metal dust and grit out of the welt so the protective thread lasts.
