Brunt Workwear, a maker of boots and apparel founded in 2020, expanded its product line to include the Sullivan, the company’s first round-toe work boot with a 90-degree heel.

Addressing critical concerns in workplace safety highlighted by the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons, Sullivan’s defined heel provides enhanced stability for trade workers who frequent ladders, scaffolding or uneven surfaces.

Crafted from waterproof, ‘barnyard resistant’ leather sourced from U.S. steer and featuring a proprietary waterproof bootie, the Sullivan protects against heavy rain, chemicals and acids. The 5mm lug depth outsole boosts outdoor performance and is slip, oil and high-heat resistant to 572º F.

Built with the same comfort and flexibility as Brunt’s Marin moc-toe wedge boot, the Sullivan includes Brunt’s Cush’n insole and an Adjustable Width System that ensures a perfect fit right out of the box.

“With each new product design, we start by listening to the people on the job, and we work with them to develop a solution that meets their needs,” said Eric Girouard, founder and CEO. “We get requests daily from our customers asking for a round-toe work boot with a 90-degree defined heel, so we are excited to bring them the Sullivan. This boot delivers performance, comfort and stability and is versatile and durable enough to handle the demands of any job site.”

The Sullivan work boot was designed in collaboration with tradespeople and named after Garit Sullivan, a landowner, woodworker and craftsman.

Available in a dark brown, with more colors and styles slated for release in 2025. The Sullivan Soft Toe and Comp Toe Versions are available in sizes 7-16.
