Product Description
Maximum Protection in the Woods – Armor Pro Calk Boots
Overview
The Armor Pro Calk Boot is built for the most punishing forestry and logging conditions—where chainsaws, thorns, and heavy brush are part of the daily grind. Featuring a full rubber-coated leather upper and calked soles with steel spikes, this boot offers unmatched protection and traction. Whether you're navigating steep slopes, brush-filled terrain, or slippery logs, the Armor Pro keeps your feet dry, secure, and protected from serious wear.
Key Features
- Full Rubber-Coated Upper: Stark rubber overlay resists cuts, tears, and abrasions from saws, brush, and rough terrain.
- Calked Sole: Steel spikes embedded in the sole provide aggressive grip on wet logs and steep slopes.
- Sympatex® Waterproof Membrane: Keeps your feet dry without sacrificing breathability.
- Heavy-Duty Nylon Midsole: Offers excellent lateral stability under load.
- Optional Insulation: Available in both non-insulated and 400g Thinsulate versions for year-round use.
Armor Pro vs. Grizzly – Which Boot is Right for You?
If you need maximum protection in abrasive or chainsaw-heavy environments, the Armor Pro is the clear choice. Its full rubber-coated upper is built to resist the harshest elements. On the other hand, the Grizzly boot is a more flexible, lightweight option—ideal for general logging where mobility and comfort are just as important as durability. Both offer calked soles for traction, but your jobsite demands will determine the best fit.
Why Choose Calked Boots?
Calked (or “corked”) soles feature metal spikes that dig into bark, roots, and wet ground—essential for logging and tree work. These boots help you maintain stable footing while carrying heavy gear, working on inclines, or navigating slick terrain. If your work takes you into unpredictable environments, calked boots are the only serious option.
