About this product
More Support Without the Weight
When you want more support without the weight of a safety toe, this 8″ Moc Toe delivers. Full-grain Tobacco leather and a stable wedge outsole keep you comfortable on hard surfaces, while a cushioned footbed helps reduce fatigue over long hours.

An 8″ Height for Extra Coverage
The taller 8-inch shaft gives your ankles more coverage and support than a 6″ boot, a good choice for jobs where you want the extra protection.
Support Without the Weight
Skipping the safety toe means a lighter, roomier boot — a real advantage for jobs that don't require steel or composite toe protection.
Why Choose the Thorogood 814-4288?
If you want extra ankle support and all-day comfort without the weight of a safety toe, this is the pick.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this boot be resoled?
Yes. Goodyear storm welt construction means the upper is stitched to the welt rather than glued, so it can be resoled multiple times instead of replaced.
Does this boot have a safety toe?
It's a non-safety moc toe boot with no ASTM F2413 toe rating. The 804-4288 is the steel-toe version in the same leather.
Is this boot waterproof?
It's built for breathability rather than waterproofing.
Why choose an 8″ height over 6″?
The taller shaft gives your ankles more coverage and support, which some jobs call for over the added mobility of a lower-cut boot.
How does the American Heritage 814-4288 fit?
It runs true to size — order the size you wear in athletic shoes, and choose Wide if you normally need an EE width. The moc toe leaves room across the forefoot, and the Ultimate Shock Absorption footbed cushions from the first wear.
How do I care for the 814-4288?
Knock off dirt, wipe the leather clean, let the boot dry away from direct heat, and condition the leather every few months. Tobacco leather darkens and develops character with wear, and conditioning keeps it supple.
