Brand Spotlight: Matterhorn®

What do Miners, Soldiers, Law Enforcement, EMS, and Homeland Security all have in common?  They all have an extremely tough job and require a boot just as rugged and reliable as they are. They need footwear that will provide comfort and safety at the same time.  Matterhorn boots are “extreme boots for extreme environments.”

With the professional industry in mind, Matterhorn® offers boots to keep your feet dry and comfortable all day long while not only meeting, but exceeding safety requirements.  Bridgeport Equipment & Tool is proud to carry Matterhorn® not only for their quality but for the fact that they are proudly manufactured in the land of the free and the home of the brave by American workers. 

Let’s take a look at a few Matterhorn® boots that Bridgeport Equipment & Tool carries and explain some highlights about the patented technologies that make Matterhorn® so awesome!



This pull on boot is made of black oil full grain leather with a heavy duty rubber outsole.  It is waterproof and insulated with 600 grams of Thinsulate™.   Being thin and warm, Thinsulate™ is perfect for footwear because of its durability and compression-resistance. The boot has high-visibility reflective strips, is electrical hazard rated, and has TigerTip®.  Matterhorn’s® TigerTip® is a patented high-abrasion boot tip that provides superior protection and extends the life of the boot.  These protective boots have an external shin guard as well as a non-metallic internal metguard.  A very popular boot amongst the mining community!
