If you’re looking for a tough, yet snug pair of rigger boots that won’t burn a hole in your wallet, this pair from Grafters may be a solid option. Just don’t forget that they’re not certified for heat-resistance.

Durability shouldn’t be an issue with these rigger boots — not under most conditions, anyway. The full-grain leather upper is triple-stitched, with a steel-capped toe, while the outsole is made with welted Goodyear rubber. The composition of the sole also adds a great deal of toughness to these boots — more on that below. That said, the ankle area is firm enough that these boots will keep you safe while gardening, farming, and performing other general tasks on uneven terrain.At Scruffs, we’ve got steel toe safety boots to suit every trade, every industry, and every purpose. Broadly speaking, our work boots can be broken down into four categories – SBP rated, S1P rated, S3 rated, and Waterproof. That’s enough to protect your ankle from twisting, but not much else – so it’s pretty-basic. Comfort S1P rated steel toe boots are made from more durable materials and feature closed seat regions. They offer all the protection of the SBP rated boots, but with added electrical resistance, and energy absorption. Popular S1P rated boots in our range include the Noble, and the Gravity rigger boots.

And these boots are definitely more durable than they are comfortable (although they’re just snug enough that you can have them on without issues for an 8-10 hour shift.)

And, they’re actually waterproof, meaning your feet will stay dry even if you work in muddy, wet conditions. Durability SBP rated steel toe boots have been tested to ensure that the reinforced toe can withstand 200J impact and 15kN compression force. On top of that, the penetration resistant outsole has been tested at 1,100N. Popular SBP rated boots in our range include the Twister, the Monsoon, and the Oxygen.The Apache Traction rigger boots are a pure contender for the DeWalt Tungsten, and not just because they’re cheaper.
