KEEN Utility Davenport Composite Toe 400g Insulated Waterproof Boot
The KEEN Utility Davenport 6-inch composite toe 400g insulated waterproof boot is the pick when the cold is the main hazard. With 400 grams of insulation, KEEN.DRY waterproofing, an EH rating, and a slip-resistant outsole, it is built for crews who stand outside through the coldest months. The composite toe keeps the toe box from conducting cold the way steel does, which matters more the colder it gets. It is a heavily insulated composite toe boot.

Jobs and Hazards This Boot Fits
Order the Davenport for the coldest outdoor work: winter utility and line-adjacent tasks, snow-country construction, cold-storage and freezer floors, and rail or yard work in deep winter. The 400g insulation plus EH rating covers cold and electrical hazards together, and the waterproof membrane handles slush. If your winters are milder or you also need EH in a lighter package, compare the Carhartt Force HD insulated. For energized-circuit context, see our electrical hazard boots collection. Pair the Davenport with thermal work socks from the full safety footwear catalog.
Fit, Sizing, and Who Should Size Up
KEEN runs roomy through the forefoot. For a 400g boot you plan to wear with thick socks, staying true to size usually gives the right room; narrow feet can size down a half for heel lock. Do not size so snug that circulation suffers β compressed feet get colder, not warmer. A supportive insole from our work boot insoles range can also lift your foot off the cold floor. See how to choose safety boots for width guidance. Available in sizes 8 through 13.

| Model | Insulation | EH | Best for |

Choose the Davenport when you need maximum 400g warmth plus an EH rating in one composite boot; choose the Carhartt Force HD insulated for general winter use. Both waterproof boots are in our waterproof work boots collection.
