Why should I order from TheUnionBootPro?

We wear the boots we sell. So, in most cases we have first hand knowledge and experience with the products. We get it - your boots are an important piece of equipment.

We talk to our customers. By doing so, we learn a few things along the way that help the next customer, and the next, and the next.

We work as hard as you do, everyday. Okay, so maybe we sit on our butts, behind desks all day, but that doesn't mean keeping 40,000 union members customers happy
isn't hard work.

We sell only Thorogood® occupational safety work boots.
MADE IN USA since 1892 - UNION MADE since 1946.

Our offices are smackdab between both Thorogood factories -
20 miles in either direction. We personally and professionally know the folks that make Thorogood work boots possible. We talk to them daily. We visit them monthly.

We've been in business since 2006. So, we must be doing something right.

Our customers can tell you, we treat our customers the way we would want to be treated. Our goal is simple: providing the best made boots at the best price...and if there is a problem, we do everything we can to solve it.

Check out our customer comments: Real words. Real people.
Real jobs. Real opinions. - good and bad.

Finally, we now have a smartphone-friendly website app. Our union customers demanded it; we built it.

Check it out: Smartphone-friendly. Easy to use. Better for the eyes.

Why does TheUnionBootPro sell only Thorogood® work boots?

We did our homework. We discovered, first hand, that Thorogood® is truly dedicated to making the best job-fitted work boots in America. They have been quietly (and without alot of hipe, like other more well-known brands) designing and making the toughest work boots for the toughest work environments ...since 1892!

We've watched the boots being made. Every MADE IN USA boot begins its life with
the hand selection of raw leather. After that, over 125 manufacturing steps are required to complete a boot. During this process, over 10 "in-line" inspections occur that guarantees that every pair of boots delivered will perform as promised.

As many of our customers have discovered, a Thorogood® work boot is both comfortable out of the box and up to the demands of the toughest job.

Ask... any electrician, carpenter, ironworker, boilermaker, sheetmetal worker, utility lineman, millwright, assembler or fabricator who has worn Thorogood® work boots and you will discover a dedication to the brand that recognizes the quality of workmanship, comfort and performance they experienced after a long day on the job. American workers trust their Thorogood® work boots.
