Aug 3, 2010

The Trailblade combines the slip-resistant outsoles and waterproof features of a work boot with the mesh, athletic lining of an athletic shoe. The work shoe maintains protection certified by the American Society for Testing and Materials and is non-metallic. It has an oil and slip-resistant rubber outsole and optional composite toe protection, a lightweight alternative to a steel toe, the company says.
