These are the boots worn by wildland fire fighters, forest rangers, smoke jumpers, surveyors, oil field workers, ranch hands, hikers and even motorcyclists. These high quality tough work boots have been constructed using a special, extra heavy 7 ounce/2.8mm thick water and fire resistant leather giving your feet superb protection in harsh environments. The laces are also made from fire resistant black leather, are easy on the hands and can easily be found if you need to replace them. The fire resistant, heavy duty Vibram lug soles are both glued and sewn on using heavy fire resistant Kevlar thread making sure they stay attached to these sturdy boots. The other thing that makes the Firestormer so special is that they have the same basic design and construction details as the Jobmaster, Highliner and Boss Engineer boots, but with the features described above that specialize these boots to their task.
