Irish Setter Hopkins mid-height boots are designed with comfort and stability features that result in a lightweight — yet heavy-duty — work boot with a comfortable height suitable for active occupations in maintenance and repair, transportation, warehousing, manufacturing and construction in indoor and outdoor settings.

The Stars & Stripes Outsole's aggressive lug pattern offers exceptional stability and traction. This non-marking outsole offers crucial, best-in-class safety ratings in slip resistance, oil/gas, chemicals, abrasions and heat. An asymmetrical aluminum safety toe provides added room and comfort in the toe box and meets ASTM safety standards. A steel shank offers added arch support while a removable polyurethane footbed creates instant underfoot comfort. A padded collar adds to the comfort of this work boot. Durable full grain, waterproof leather and UltraDry™ waterproofing provide long-lasting protection from the work environment and outdoor elements. Irish Setter Hopkins work boots are rated ASTM F2413-18, M/I/C and Electrical Hazard (EH) and Slip Resistant (SR).

"Irish Setter Hopkins work boots offer all day lightweight comfort and heavy-duty performance," said Charley Bryant, Irish Setter Product Manager for Red Wing Shoe Company.
