Construction:

Cemented

Which boot construction is right for you?

Not every job has the same demands - and not every boot is built the same way. The Marin boot comes in three constructions. Learn which one is right for you.

Cemented Construction

Cemented Construction

Cemented boots use a high-strength adhesive to bond the sole directly to the upper part of the boot. That means less break-in time, more flexibility, and less weight on your feet. Perfect if you’re on the move all day and need comfort right out of the box.
USA Welted Construction

USA Welted Construction

Our USA Welted boots feature the same durable, resoleable Goodyear welt construction - built right here in the USA using domestic and globally sourced components. If you want an ultra-durable, fully waterproof boot that’s homegrown, this is the one
Welted Construction

Welted Construction

Welted boots use a durable, resoleable Goodyear welt construction - a method where the upper is stitched to the sole with a tough leather welt. That stitch creates a stable, hard-wearing bond that holds up on the most demanding jobsites. These boots are fully waterproof and ultra-durable, built with an extra midsole layer for added support, and made to go the distance - shift after shift.

Heel:

Wedge

Which boot heel is right for you?

Different jobs need different soles. Two common types are the wedge sole and the 90° heel, each designed for different work environments. Which is right for you?

Wedge

Wedge

Wedge sole boots have a flat bottom with a more shallow tread pattern that delivers even weight distribution and all-day comfort on hard, flat surfaces like concrete and shop floors - making them a favorite among factory workers, ironworkers, and carpenters. The lack of a defined heel also means they are less likely to track mud and debris.
90 Degree

90 Degree

Boots with a 90° heel, also known as defined or block heels, feature a distinct, sharp angle where the heel meets the sole that catches ladder rungs and grips uneven ground. The aggressive tread patterns often paired with 90° heels offer superior traction in mud, gravel, and on slippery surfaces, making them best for construction workers, loggers, and linesmen.

STYLE NUMBER: BRF10005-001

Matt Marin is one of my first childhood friends and the namesake for one of our bestselling boots. At a young age he joined a carpenter’s union and was quickly promoted to foreman. He really appreciated the moc-toe boot style, but was sick of paying a hefty price each time he needed a new pair, and hated the break-in period that came with it. We worked with Matt to create a boot that is lighter on your wallet, comfortable right out of the box, and packed with all the features he needed on the jobsite. - Eric Girouard, Founder & CEO

Beyond the extra height to better cover your lower leg, an 8” boot offers more security, stability, and protection for your ankles.

Any job that comes in contact with sparks, mud, or wet conditions, will benefit from the additional protection of the boot. The extra height also helps prevent you from turning an ankle, so try an 8” boot if you’re working on a lot of raised steps or uneven surfaces.

All of our waterproof boots feature a two-part system that consists of a premium waterproof leather sourced from USA steer and an interior waterproof bootie that locks out moisture.

    Comfort boots

    Second pair of boots. Comfortable right out of the box. Same as the first pair. Right around a year on the first pair. The soles are starting to wear smooth; probably because of the soft material…? No problem.
