CSA Safety Boots

Ankle-height work boots with a protective toe cap and a puncture-resistant sole plate, carrying the CSA green triangle on the tongue or side. The green triangle means Grade 1 toe and sole protection; for electrical work look for the white rectangle with an orange omega as well, which marks shock resistance. Fit them in the afternoon when your feet are largest and walk stairs in the store - a heel that slips will blister by the end of the first week.

Buying tip
CSA-approved is mandatory on site. Fit matters more than brand — you'll wear these 10 hours a day.
