The Hawthorne 6” BRUNT Toe™ Waterproof (Soft Toe) delivers the comfort of an athletic hiking boot with all the performance of a durable work boot. Featuring our signature BRUNT CUSH’N® midsole and insole system, it provides lightweight cushioning and all-day support for long hours on your feet. It’s built with a waterproof and barnyard-resistant FARMGUARD™ leather that repels rain, mud, oil, piss, and sh*t, and a proprietary rubber outsole that’s slip-, oil-, and high-heat-resistant. Ideal for tradespeople who work on their knees and jobs that need some extra muscle, the Hawthorne’s patented BRUNT Toe™ exterior toe cap and heel guards protect high-wear areas from breaking down and extend the life of your boots.

Brad Hawthorne is a carpenter known for his uncompromising attention to detail - the guy you call when you want the job done right. For over 20 years, he’s been building high-end, custom homes around Sebago Lake in Maine - handling everything from framing to finish trim. He needed a boot that could do it all: something lightweight and comfortable enough for 12-hour days, and tough enough to take a beating while he’s kneeling or crouching. So we built the Hawthorne - a boot engineered with the same level of care and precision that Brad brings to every job. - Eric Girouard, Founder & CEO

The Hawthorne 6” Waterproof (Soft Toe) boot is built from leathers sourced from U.S. steer - the highest quality hides available. At just 1 lb. 7 oz (size 9) with a cemented construction, it delivers premium, durable materials without the extra bulk.

We recommend BRUNT’s Leather Conditioner to help you get the most out of your work boots. This proprietary blend of mink oil, beeswax, and natural additives protects and extends the life of your leather. The mink oil replenishes natural oils, while the beeswax seals them in and adds a barrier against scuffs and tough jobsite conditions. For best results, apply with our 100% horsehair brush - built for precise cleaning and conditioning.

    Love Them!!

    I bought a pair of these as everyday boots at work. I have to say, they are the most comfortable boots I’ve bought. I already own the Ohman and the Marin, I loved both of those, but for me, hands down, the Hawthorn wins. I absolutely love these boots.
