When it comes to comfortable footwear, few need it more than America's blue-collar workforce, and today Wolverine®, America's leading work boot brand, introduced what it calls the best boots they've made in their 142 year history, powered by the new Wolverine Infinity System™ comfort system. The boots combine three layers of Wolverine's top technologies and features into one powerful platform designed to help reduce the toll of the workday on workers' bodies throughout long shifts.

"We've seen performance footwear innovations in sports evolve over the years; from high performance running midsoles to recovery footbeds, they've transformed how athletes perform and prepare. Now we're bringing those innovations to the jobsite," said Mike Maloney, Chief Product Officer for Wolverine. "We spent years developing and testing to create the Wolverine Infinity System, which will be the best technology to ever be offered to the trades." 

Tested in the Saucony Human Performance & Innovation Lab (a sister brand to Wolverine), the Alpha featuring Wolverine Infinity System demonstrated a 234% increase in energy return in the heel, 121% in the forefoot and 142% more impact absorption than the current category leading product, according to company data.

"These boots are designed to enhance overall comfort and performance," said Cory Hofmann, Senior Performance Engineer for Saucony. "Our results demonstrate that the patented Wolverine Infinity System moves these products far closer to athletic performance footwear in many of our mechanical testing metrics."

Integrated into modern, jobsite-ready silhouettes like the Alpha and the Rancher, the Wolverine Infinity System™ combines three of Wolverine's top technologies: the Wolverine Infinity Frame™, the EnergyBound™ midsole and the DuraShocks® outsole, as well as Wolverine's HyperRest™ performance comfort footbed.

  • Wolverine Infinity Frame™ cradles the foot, giving you stability and comfort.
  • EnergyBound™ midsole's foam pads deliver more than 2x the energy return of the leading work boot.
  • DuraShocks® outsoles absorb 2x more impact in the heel compared to the leading work boot. 

The boots are available now in both soft- and safety-toe models at retailers nationwide and on wolverine.com with prices starting at $174.95.
