BOGS Basics:
Which Outsole is Right For You?
Everybody uses their boots in different ways, which is why BOGS designs different types of outsoles and tread patterns. Making sure you have the right traction for the terrain you're on will help you stay upright and comfortable all day long. Think of it like the traction on your tires. Some tires are great for city driving while other tires are designed to rip down muddy roads with ease. And like your tires, any boot can take on almost any task, but knowing which tread is best for the job will help keep your feet comfortable and firmly planted on the ground.
Rubber Compounds:
Grips For The Daily Grind
When you combine our unique outsole designs with our rubber compounds, you're sure to feel the difference in every step.
Hard-Surface Grip: Anti-Slip Designs
At the most basic level, our garden clogs and farm boots are specifically designed to meet the more rigorous demands of gardening, landscaping, and farming. Whether you're tending livestock, working the fields, or navigating muddy garden beds, our work-inspired boots are built to handle tough conditions day in and day out.
These outsoles are designed for long hours on hard surfaces. The tread tends to be less aggressive, shallower lugs, which gives you more contact with the ground. The rubber compounds also offer a tackier feel and, in some instances, have Vibram pads for extra grip.
THESE OUTSOLES ARE IDEAL FOR: Dairy farms, industrial floors, workshops, and shoveling snow in your driveway.
