After building work boots for the better part of a century, the folks at Danner know their stuff. But that doesn’t mean they rest on their laurels, as these Danner Logger 917 Boots so amply prove. They’re an amalgam of tough traditional construction with modern upgrades like a compaction-resisting, moisture-wicking OrthoLite footbed and nimble Vibram outsole that’ll work circles around the competition. The rugged waterproof leather upper even comes with a removable kiltie (false tongue) to keep sawdust and wood chips from sneaking inside. Once you try ’em, you’ll give every other pair of boots the axe!
