The CA3597 is \u003cstrong\u003ecement-constructed\u003c\/strong\u003e with a heavy-duty outsole — lighter, more flexible, and less expensive.

Carolina offers the Gruntz in D and 2E; if you're between widths, take the wider one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan it be resoled?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Welt construction stitches the outsole to the upper rather than bonding it, so a cobbler can replace the lug sole when the tread wears down. This is what separates the CA3599 from the cement-built CA3597.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy a steel toe over composite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth meet the same ASTM impact and compression thresholds. Steel is thinner, so it preserves slightly more room inside the toe box at the same size. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Carolina","offers":[{"title":"8 \/ Medium \/ Brown","offer_id":53230016823569,"sku":"726363755943","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8 \/ Wide \/ Brown","offer_id":53230016856337,"sku":"726363755837","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8.5 \/ Medium \/ Brown","offer_id":51375016313105,"sku":"726363755950","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8.5 \/ Wide \/ Brown","offer_id":51375016345873,"sku":"726363755844","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"9 \/ Medium \/ Brown","offer_id":53230016889105,"sku":"726363755967","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"9 \/ Wide \/ Brown","offer_id":53230016921873,"sku":"726363755851","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"9.5 \/ Medium \/ Brown","offer_id":51375016444177,"sku":"726363755974","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"9.5 \/ Wide \/ Brown","offer_id":51375016476945,"sku":"726363755868","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 \/ Medium \/ Brown","offer_id":53230016954641,"sku":"726363755981","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 \/ Wide \/ Brown","offer_id":53230016987409,"sku":"726363755875","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10.5 \/ Medium \/ Brown","offer_id":51375016575249,"sku":"726363755998","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10.5 \/ Wide \/ Brown","offer_id":51375016608017,"sku":"726363755882","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11 \/ Medium \/ Brown","offer_id":53230017020177,"sku":"726363756001","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11 \/ Wide \/ Brown","offer_id":53230017052945,"sku":"726363755899","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11.5 \/ Medium \/ Brown","offer_id":51375016706321,"sku":"726363756018","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11.5 \/ Wide \/ Brown","offer_id":51375016739089,"sku":"726363755905","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12 \/ Medium \/ Brown","offer_id":53230017085713,"sku":"726363756025","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12 \/ Wide \/ Brown","offer_id":53230017118481,"sku":"726363755912","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"13 \/ Medium \/ Brown","offer_id":53230017151249,"sku":"726363756032","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"13 \/ Wide \/ Brown","offer_id":53230017184017,"sku":"726363755929","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"14 \/ Medium \/ Brown","offer_id":53230017216785,"sku":"726363756049","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"14 \/ Wide \/ Brown","offer_id":53230017249553,"sku":"726363755936","price":135.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1107\/6454\/files\/CLA-001-CA3599.jpg?v=1753306458","url":"https:\/\/uverlookboots.com\/products\/carolina-mens-gruntz-8-steel-toe-wp-slip-resistant-work-boot-brown-ca3599","provider":"Overlook Boots","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
