Not a Scrap of Steel
Carbon composite toe, composite shank. Nothing structural in this boot is metal, so there's nothing underfoot to rust when the leather stays wet.
What the Extra Two Inches Buy You
An 8" shaft supports the ankle laterally and keeps mud, gravel, and sparks out. It costs you flexibility and a little heat. On broken ground, in a trench, or around hot work, the taller shaft earns its keep.
Why Choose the CA7574?
Waterproof, EH rated, acid-resistant, resoleable, and free of steel throughout — with ankle coverage.

Frequently Asked Questions
What safety toe does the Staple Gun have?
A carbon composite safety toe made from a carbon fiber weave, non-metallic and meeting ASTM F2413 for impact (I/75) and compression (C/75).
What does barnyard acid resistant mean?
The leather is treated to resist degradation from manure, urine, fertilizer, and similar caustic chemicals. It is not the same as chemical-resistant footwear for industrial solvents.
Is the CA7574 true to size?
Carolina generally runs true to size, so order the size you wear in sneakers. If you're between widths, take the wider one; feet swell over a shift.
Can it be resoled?
Yes. Leather welt construction stitches the outsole to the upper rather than bonding it, so a cobbler can replace the sole when the tread wears down.
What widths does the Staple Gun come in?
It comes in Medium and Wide, in men's sizes 8 through 14.
Is the Staple Gun electrical hazard rated?
Yes. It's electrical hazard rated, tested to withstand up to 18,000 volts at 60Hz for one minute without leakage.
