I'm looking for a pair of Engineer Boots with a square toe. It would be like a hybrid Harness boot and Engineer boot. (Harness boot toe shape and Engineer straps.)

Has anyone ever seen something like this?

FRYE makes one called the "SMITH". It's a shorter boot with an inside zipper. Comes in tan and black. Only company that I'm aware of with this style.

Thanks @handymike , those look great minus the zipper and being pre-worn.

a little polish on the black ones, and you'd be good to go.

Wesco can do that for you as well. Just get engineers with their harness toe.

Never heard of them...They look nice, but I would like to see more angle on that heel.

I have a pair of Dayton Sidekick and I am also not used to seeing the farmer/packer style in block heels. They are good boots though my Dayton has better stitch work etc than my White's and Wesco.

why square toe? Look for Italian shoemakers. They sold a LOT of square toes in the 80's thru early 00's. Cheap now because of the shape, but some are very high quality.
