The Farmington leather soft toe work boot is built using "direct-attach to welt" technology, which combines the comfort and flexibility of a direct-attach boot with the strength and durability of a traditional sewn welt boot. This 6-inch boot is made with full grain Trout Brook leather which is proudly tanned by the hard working people of Red Wing Minnesota using U.S. raised cattle. The sole includes a comfortable steel shank which provides more stable footing and helps support your feet and calves. Lightweight, comfortable, and durable. The Farmington boot is versatile boot you can take anywhere.
