KEEN Utility Men's 8 Waterproof Composite Toe Work Boots

The Independence 8" Composite Toe work boots from Keen Utility are proudly made in the USA. Assembled with care in Portland, Oregon, these boots are designed with a minimal-waste approach, utilizing the finest materials sourced from around the world. Keen is committed to bringing footwear manufacturing back to America, and they've done so in one of the country's most modern factories.

These boots feature left and right asymmetrical, non-metallic carbon-fiber (composite) toes that offer an unobtrusive fit, while being 15% lighter than steel. They meet or exceed the ASTM F2412 and F2413 M I/75, C/75 EH standards, ensuring your safety on the job.

Keeping your feet dry and comfortable is a top priority, and the Independence 8" boots are equipped with KEEN.DRY, a waterproof and breathable membrane liner. This innovative technology allows vapor to escape without letting water in, maintaining a dry and comfortable environment for your feet.

Traction is also a critical factor, and these boots are designed with an oil- and slip-resistant outsole that is lighter and more durable than rubber. The 90° heel (5/8") provides stability and helps "catch or lock" the foot in place, meeting or exceeding the ASTM F1677 Mark II and ASTM F2913 standards.

Comfort and support are not compromised in these work boots. They feature KEEN Luftcell air-infused, PU midsoles, providing weightless comfort for long hours on your feet. Additionally, the nylon shank used in the construction offers midfoot support and superior torsion stability, while the moisture-wicking textiles help keep your feet dry.

In summary, the Keen Utility Mens Independence8 Leather Waterproof Composite Toe work boots are a top-of-the-line product, made with pride in the USA. With their carbon-fiber toes, waterproof and breathable design, superior traction, and exceptional comfort features, these boots are built to keep you safe, dry, and supported on the job site.
