Whether you work outdoors on a construction site or spend your days working around heavy machinery, one of your top priorities should be the correct choice of footwear. Sourcing footwear that combines safety, comfort, and durability can make all the difference to your workday and your health and safety. Caterpillar work boots are designed with workplace hazards in mind and combine all the above to create the most comfortable work boot on the market.

The workplace can be full of potential hazards. Oil spills, heavy falling objects, live electrical cables and the unstable or uneven ground underfoot are just some of the risks you can be exposed to during your working day. No matter how compliant your work environment is with health and safety regulations, you can always supplement this. One way to further help reduce your risk of injury is by wearing the correct PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) such as Hi-Viz, hard hats, and safety work boots. Caterpillar provides an extensive range of both men’s and women’s CAT boots, designed with your comfort and safety in mind and fully compliant with government safety standards.

Though appropriate for certain working environments, traditional work boots can feel heavy, restrictive and awkward underfoot. These can make an 8-hour day seem like an 18-hour day! This can be unpleasant and lead to unnecessary discomfort and fatigue. When it comes to men’s and women’s work boots, Caterpillar is pioneering ways to reduce discomfort.

However, the choice of a more lightweight footwear option can leave you exposed to the risk of injury from workplace hazards such as falling heavy objects, slippery surfaces or even the inconvenience and discomfort of wet feet. In addition to this, to comply with many workplace health and safety regulations, it is a requirement that you have footwear that is in accordance with ASTM F2413-11 (the standard specification for performance requirements for protective toecap footwear).

With Caterpillar Waterproof Composite Toe Work Boots you won’t have to compromise on comfort, safety or functionality. The boots are not overly bulky but provide exceptional support to reduce your risk of injury. When combined with our EASE comfort cushioning midsole, this makes Caterpillar safety shoes the most comfortable work boot on the market.

With the Caterpillar composite boot, you’ll feel comfortable and light on your feet. Since it’s easy to slip into these Caterpillar pull-on boots, you may even forget you’re wearing work boots.

The Caterpillar Waterproof Composite Toe Work Boot is constructed from the following materials:

  • Full Grain Leather Upper
  • Nylon Mesh Sock Liner
  • EASE Midsole
  • T1320 Outsole
  • Cement Construction

Built with a full-grain leather upper and a 100% waterproof membrane, Caterpillar composite toe boots protect your feet from wet environments, accidental spillages and water underfoot while still allowing maximum breathability for your skin. You will have dry, comfortable feet all day long.

Ease Technology built into the midsole improves comfort over long periods of wear, and a tough T1320 outsole provides extra traction, reducing the risk of slips in the workplace.

Durable Cement Construction, synonymous with Caterpillar workwear, means the upper, the outsole and the inner sole are fully bonded with no stitching. This all gives you a longer-lasting, harder-wearing work boot.

Composite carbon fiber Nano Toe technology offers all the protection of a steel-toe boot in a lighter weight alternative.

The 100% waterproof membrane protects your feet from wet environments, accidental spillages, and water underfoot while still allowing maximum breathability for your skin. You will have dry, comfortable feet all day long.

Boot Technology

Over the years, Caterpillar has built its reputation on bringing high-end work footwear to the market through continued research and product development. By integrating new technologies and modern materials into their footwear, the company stays committed to providing tough, dependable and safety compliant footwear. Men and women Cat boots both give you’re the comfort and protection you need.

Composite Carbon Fibre Toe

Caterpillar composite toe work boots offer all the protection of steel-toe boots at a much lighter weight. The Non-Metallic Nano Toe is constructed from lightweight, durable carbon fibre, meaning protection for your feet and toes from workplace hazards such as accidental impact or compression from heavy objects. The Nano Toe fulfills the standard specification for performance requirements for protective toecap footwear. What’s more, the toes are non-metallic. The material is undetectable in electronic security environments, meaning no need to remove your boots if your work environment requires security screening.

Electrical Insulation

As part of the design, the Caterpillar Waterproof Composite Toe Work Boot is classed as Cat Electrical Hazard footwear. This means it is rated ASTM F2413-05 1/75 EH. The special EH construction offers an extra layer of protection to the wearer against open circuits up to 18,000 volts in dry conditions. Frequently in a construction environment, open circuits and loose electrical cables can be a potential hazard. Wearing electrical hazard footwear reduces the risk of injury significantly.

Oil and Slip Resistant

The T1320 outsole is specific to Caterpillar. The SRX™ rubber outsole gives the highest degree of slip-resistant traction out of all CAT boots. You’ll walk with confidence in any environment, even those with low traction surfaces such as oil, mud or water.

EASE Technology

Caterpillar Composite Toe Work Boots offer maximum comfort thanks to EASE. A responsive, shock-absorbing and light-weight foam is engineered into the midsole for a more personalised fit and a higher level of comfort. With EASE, you’ll find the cushioning is 30% more resilient and 30% softer than ever, keeping your hard-working feet comfortable and free from fatigue at the end of the day.

  • Caterpillar work boots are fully compliant with ASTM F2413-11. They can be used in a workplace environment, protecting you from spills, slippages, electrical hazards and falling objects
