Steel Toe Caps

Steel toe cap boots are essential for roles that involve handling heavy materials, navigating unpredictable terrain, or working in active build zones. Known for their strength and resilience, they remain a trusted choice for construction, utilities, and logistics teams where compliance and on-site protection are key.

Choose from S1-rated styles for dry indoor use, S1P or S2 for added midsole or water resistance, or S3/S5 boots for full protection across wet, rough, or high-risk settings. Many styles offer shock absorption, anti-static soles, and oil/slip resistance for secure footing across site conditions.
