Detailed Review
The Cat Footwear Men's Outbase WP Construction Boot excels in providing both comfort and safety for users in various environments. Made from quality full grain leather, these boots not only look good but also resist wear and tear. The cushioned midsole and NXT footbed give substantial support, making them ideal for long hours on your feet.
The waterproof feature is particularly notable, allowing wearers to traverse wet conditions without worry. Thanks to the seam-sealed waterproof liner, you can remain dry even in heavy rain. Additionally, the slip-resistant sole provides excellent traction, addressing one of the primary concerns in work environments where spills may occur.
Safety is another key aspect of this boot with its electrical hazard protection, safeguarding against voltages up to 600 volts in dry conditions, making it suitable for construction sites or electrical jobs.
However, some users have reported that the boots can feel stiff at first. It's recommended to wear them in gradually to achieve maximum comfort. Moreover, while they come in a classic brown, the options may be limited for those seeking something more vibrant. Overall, the Cat Footwear Men's Outbase WP Construction Boot delivers on its promise of durability, comfort, and safety.

User Reviews
Fits perfect. Very Comfortable. Solid
I bought these today, so I don't have a lot to go on, but first impression is 5/5.They look and feel great. However, the standard in-soles are trash. So, plan on replacing them with some good ones. So far, that's my only complaint. But a $10 fix solved the problem with some in-soles I got from my local Walmart.So far, I'm very happy with these.
Still waterproof. Sole hasn't separated or come apart. Even the laces are still intact! I wear nearly every day or every other. Very happy with this boot.
Looks sharp, but to wear it all day, it’s a bit heavy and can make your feet tired.
