Work Footwear
Lugz has made footwear since 1993, and our work line takes classic Lugz shapes, from the six-inch boot and the moc toe to the retro high-top sneaker, and fits them for the job with steel or composite safety toes, slip-resistant outsoles or both.
The range runs from full work boots down to low-cut work sneakers, because not every shift calls for the same weight on your feet. Composite safety toes are metal-free and lighter than steel, and several of our slip-resistant sneakers are built to be lightweight and durable. Each product page lists what that pair carries, from water resistance to electrical hazard protection, so you can match it to the job.
