The Ely brown leather soft toe boot combines a timeless look with the rugged durability of a work boot. Direct-attach construction fuses the leather upper to the sole which creates a watertight bond that maximizes flexibility and lightweight performance. The UltraDry(TM) waterproof membrane adds another layer of protection against wet weather. Inside the midsole, a shank provides extra underfoot support while improving overall stability. The boot also meets ASTM safety standards for electrical hazard protection. The result is one of the best work boots for men around.
