Protected and Dry
A composite toe protects without steel's weight, and the sealed SCUBALINER™ membrane keeps feet dry in wet conditions.
Nothing Metal in the Boot
Composite toe, composite shank, and no eyelets at all — there is no metal in the boot's structure. That keeps an 11" boot lighter than it has any right to be.
Tall, Durable Build
The 11" pull-on shaft adds coverage, and welt construction with a lugged outsole delivers longevity and traction.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there any metal in the boot?
The CA8540 uses a non-metallic composite toe and a non-metallic shank, and as a pull-on it has no eyelets or lace hardware.
What does a square toe change about the fit?
It gives your toes room to spread laterally rather than tapering them together. On a pull-on, where you can't adjust the instep with laces, that extra forefoot room does much of the comfort work.
Can it be resoled?
Yes. Welt construction stitches the lug outsole to the upper rather than bonding it, so a cobbler can replace it when the tread wears down.
What safety standards does the CA8540 meet?
The composite toe meets ASTM F2413 I/C for impact and compression, and the boot is EH rated up to 18,000 volts at 60Hz for one minute without leakage.
Is the Girder waterproof?
Yes. Carolina's sealed SCUBALINER membrane keeps feet dry in wet conditions.
How do I care for the Girder?
Knock off dirt, wipe the leather clean, let the boot dry away from direct heat, and condition the leather every few months. Store it upright so the shaft does not crease.
