Since its debut in 1998, the DuraShocks SR boot has become a staple in the workwear industry, celebrated for its iconic design and unmatched comfort. Now, Wolverine introduces the DuraShocks SR Icon 6" CarbonMax work boot, an upgraded version that builds on this legacy with enhanced features tailored to modern needs. A wider, cradle-like heel in the midsole offers extra cushioning for superior stability, ensuring comfort during long workdays.


The DuraShocks SR Icon is equipped with the advanced WaterproofPlus membrane, a highly breathable system that keeps feet dry by blocking water while allowing heat and moisture to escape. Its updated CarbonMAX composite toe provides lightweight protection that resists temperature extremes, making it ideal for various work environments. By retaining the signature blue DuraShocks SR outsole pads, this boot continues to deliver the trusted weight and fit workers have come to rely on.


Crafted with a premium waterproof full-grain leather upper, the boot offers durability and style. Inside, a breathable waterproof membrane combined with moisture-wicking mesh lining ensures all-day dryness and comfort. A removable, lightweight ETPU footbed adds cushioning and support, while the slip-resistant Wolverine DuraShocks Dual Density polyurethane outsole provides energy return with every step. The nylon shank enhances strength, and each boot weighs approximately 1.73 lbs in the 6" safety-toe style.
