Shop for Men's Best Protective Work Boots at a Great Price

Keep yourself protected at all times, from the top of your head to the tip of your toes, especially on a job site filled with hazardous elements. Safety boots with steel toe caps offer extra protection from the impact caused by plummeting tools, objects, or debris within a construction space. The confidence a worker feels for his or her safety guarantees an efficient execution of the tasks assigned to him. Why settle for cheap, sub-standard work boots when you can put on a high-quality pair that won't dig deep into your pocket? Fortunately, Construction Gear has a lot of steel-toe work boots for men and women suitable for various working conditions. 

What are steel-toe boots called, and what is the difference between safety-toe shoes?

A steel-toe boot, as a matter of fact, is a kind of safety toe shoe. Technically, steel-toe boots are commonly referred to as safety-toe shoes. The difference lies in the material used to make the toe caps. A safety boot may contain steel, aluminum, or composite caps to serve different types of protection in varying working conditions. Construction Gear carries all these safety toe caps, but if you're looking for the strongest resistance, the steel toe boots offer the best protection.

Steel vs Composite toe boots

Steel- and composite-toe boots have the same purpose of protecting an individual's feet from impact or compression acquired from a rugged workplace. However, these boots are suitable for diverse work conditions, preventing one's toes from getting crushed after the impact. Protective footwear with a steel-toe cap under an upper leather body offers more resistance to moving or falling objects than a composite-toe boot. Steel-toe shoes are better in durability and protective reinforcement because of the fracture- and impact-resistant combination of iron and carbon. Construction Gear provides a selection of top-quality steel-toe boots at an affordable price. This type of safety toe footwear is best for industrial, construction, warehouse, and other businesses exposed to daily impact hazards.

But if you're an engineer, electrician, or handling technical operations, it is better to wear work boots with a composite-toe style. "Comp-toe" boots are made of hardwearing non-metal materials like carbon fiber, plastic, fiberglass, and Kevlar. This kind of work shoe is highly recommended for working conditions with metal detectors functioning on-site. Composite-toe boots are lighter than steel-toe boots. However, they are more round since the cap must be thicker to absorb impact.

Does OSHA recommend steel-toe boots?

Yes, OSHA recommends workers in rugged job sites wear steel-toe boots for safety. These work boots must meet or exceed the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) F2413 standards, supported by an impact resistance of 75-rating and compression resistance score of 75. OSHA requires safety toe footwear to have leather uppers for impact, puncture, and abrasion resilience, with non-skid soles to resist oil and any liquid matter in the workplace.

Slip on the advantages of functional and comfortable work boots

Waterproof characteristics

Who wants their feet to get soaked all day just to have blisters and foul-smelling feet after?

You can prevent this irritating misfortune by choosing waterproof safety boots from the Construction Gear work shoe line. Water-resistant work boots like the Wolverine Chainhand footwear ensures dry feet despite a rainy or snowy day. This feature also reduces your feet's risks of acquiring bad odor since the waterproof membrane allows the boots' interior to be impenetrable from splashes of water or any liquid substance in the area.

Great floor grip against slips, oil, and wet surfaces

It's not enough for a steel-toe work boot to be waterproof. It needs to have great traction too. Construction Gear has a variety of dependable safety footwear like the Timberland Pro Internal Met-Guard boots.

Construction, industrial, and road work sites have these unavoidable circumstances, never settle for ordinary boots to do the function of specialized footwear. It is better to be equipped than suffer the consequences afterward.

Resisting electrical hazards

OSHA does not typically consider steel-toe boots to bring danger when confronted with electrical threats. Steel-toe capped boots are deemed safe from electrical hazards as long as the conductive part of the work boot is not directly in contact with any portion of the wearer's foot. To ensure your safety, you have to scrutinize the construction of your steel-toe boots. Construction Gear offers the Steel Blue Argyle boots to protect you from electrocution at the workplace. This footwear features reinforced outsoles to repel heat of up to 266°F.
