A premium waterproof full-grain leather upper with protective toe and heel caps, an XRD internal metatarsal guard, a breathable waterproof membrane with a moisture-wicking mesh lining, the Wolverine Infinity System with an Infinity Frame and zoned EnergyBound foam pads, a removable dual-density PU footbed, a nylon shank, a lightweight CarbonMAX composite toe, and a treaded DuraShocks rubber outsole on cement construction — rated ASTM F2413-24 I/C EH Mt SR.

Met Guard Protection Built In
The XRD internal met guard protects the top of the foot from crush injuries alongside the CarbonMAX composite toe, so the Alpha ft covers impact hazards across the whole forefoot without an external flap.
The Infinity System Underfoot
Wolverine's multi-layered Infinity System pairs a stabilizing Infinity Frame with zoned EnergyBound foam pads that compress and rebound, while DuraShocks in the outsole absorb initial impact.
Why Choose the Wolverine W261059?
A waterproof, composite-toe, met-guard, EH-rated 8-inch boot with Wolverine's top comfort technology — the pick for mining, welding, fabrication, and heavy industrial work.
What safety standards does the Alpha ft W261059 meet?
It meets ASTM F2413-24 I/C EH Mt SR — the CarbonMAX composite toe covers impact and compression, the XRD internal met guard protects the top of the foot, and the boot carries EH protection and an SR slip-resistance rating.
What does the XRD met guard do?
It is an internal metatarsal guard that protects the top of the foot from crush injuries, built inside the boot rather than as an external flap.
Is the Alpha ft Met Guard waterproof?
Yes. Waterproof full-grain leather and a breathable waterproof membrane keep water out while the mesh lining wicks moisture away from the foot.
How does the Alpha ft Met Guard fit?
It fits true to size — order the size you wear in athletic shoes, and choose Extra Wide if you normally need a wide boot. The CarbonMAX toe has a lower profile than a traditional composite cap, and the dual-density PU footbed is removable.
What's the difference between the Alpha ft boots?
All are Wolverine Alpha ft waterproof work boots. The W261059 adds the XRD internal met guard to the 8-inch composite-toe build; the W251105 is the 8-inch composite toe without a met guard; the W250053 is an 8-inch soft toe; the W251108 is the Alpha ft Wellington.
How do I care for the Alpha ft Met Guard?
Knock off dirt, wipe the leather clean, let the boot dry away from direct heat, and condition the leather every few months. Conditioning keeps the full-grain leather supple without affecting the waterproof membrane. Cement construction is not resoleable, so rotate pairs to extend outsole life.

Holiday Season Shipping
Delivery times increase from November through December. Order volume rises sharply during this period, and each order ships directly from the manufacturer.
Most orders arrive within the delivery time of the shipping method you choose, but during this period some orders take two weeks or longer.
Delivery before December 25 cannot be guaranteed for any order. The earlier you order, the better your chances.
Because orders move into processing quickly, cancellations and changes are often not possible during the holiday season.
If a gift must arrive by a specific date, please call us before ordering at 717-759-3100, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm EST.
Order Cancellations & Changes
We understand that you may need to change or cancel an order after it's been placed, and we will always do our best to help when that happens.
Orders are processed and sent along very quickly after checkout — often within a very limited window. Once an order has entered that process, we may no longer be able to cancel it or make changes.
If you need to cancel an order or change something about it (size, style, shipping address, etc.), please contact us as soon as possible after placing it. We'll check the status of your order right away and let you know if we're able to accommodate your request.
Reaching out does not guarantee that an order can be stopped or changed — if it has already been processed, shipped, or is otherwise too far along, the order will need to proceed as placed, and our standard return/exchange policy below will apply.
To help avoid the need for a change, we recommend double-checking your size, width, style, and shipping address carefully before completing checkout.
