While a steel toe work boot protects the toes, the steel shank protects the underside. They both retain the structure and shape of the boot, allowing your steel shank boots to be sturdy, long-lasting and reliable.
It also saves your time and money for getting a new pair of work boots. More benefits of steel shank work boots:
• Keep you safe from the penetration of sharp objects, especially when working on rocky terrain or in construction areas where there are scrap nails or metals on the floor
• Offer comfort, balance, and support to overworked arches
• WESCO® Highliner even features heavy-duty steel shanks for extra support and protection
