Wolverine Features And Benefits

Opanka Construction
- The Opanka construction hand sews the upper, the sock lining, and outsole together in a single process creating a cushioning effect.

Strobel Construction - The upper is stitched at the edge to a supple woven fabric, instead of being glued to fiberboard.

Direct Attach Construction - Fuses the sole to the fibers of the upper to produce a strong, watertight seal.

Goodyear Welt Construction - The upper is stretched over the last and held momentarily while a strip of leather (the Welt) is stitched to the upper and inner sole. Then the sole is hind-stitched through the Welt to complete the process. This assembly allows many sole replacements, extending the life of the boot.

Cement Construction - Glue on construction for light weight and flexibility however soles are permanent.

Comfort Stitch Construction - Stitch down construction that enables better flexing of the outsole..

Durashock Construction - Compression pads in the heel and front of the foot compress into the outsole to dissolve forces before they reach the feet and legs.

MultiShox - Several compression pads in the heel and foot are designed to absorb shock independently, where it is needed most, and give back energy in each step, providing comfort all day long.

Compressor - Patented 3-zone Aero-Spacer® lining removes dampness away so your feet stay dry and cool.

Wolverine Gore-Tex - Waterproof, breathable, GORE-TEX® membrane allows wetness out, but water can’t get in.

Molded EVA – Very light weight mid sole composite used in footwear.

Electrical Hazard - Reduces electrical hazards that are the result of contact between the sole and electrically-energized parts or surfaces.

Gore-Tex - The breathable Gore-Tex(R) consists of a patented membrane with tiny pores that keep water molecules out while letting air vapor escape from around the foot, making them waterproof.

Outsoles - Oil, acid and slip resistant outsoles are an ingrained part of Wolverine Boots.

Steel Toe - Protects the toe area with steel protective cap.

Composite Toe - Wolverine¨ Composite Toe Boots and Shoes are rated ASTM F2413-05 M I/75 C/75. Composite toe boots defend feet where non-metallic footwear is required.

STEEL TOE BOOTS -All Wolverine Boots & Shoes are laboratory tested to meet the high safety standards set by OSHA and meet all ANSI standards set by OSHA.
