Where this boot fits
The Overpass suits electricians, mechanics, and general trades who cross wet ground and want athletic flex with a non-conductive toe. The CarbonMAX cap is one of the lightest metal-free options, so it earns its place with crews who log high step counts. Pair it with a replacement insole from our work boot insoles range once the Ortholite wears in, plus cushioned work socks.
Fit, sizing, and metal-free advantage
The Overpass runs true to size with a slightly athletic last; most order their normal size. It anchors the athletic end of our composite toe boots range next to the rugged Timberland PRO Boondock and the value Carhartt CMF6366. Its CarbonMAX toe is the same metal-free family covered in our steel toe vs composite toe guide.
Every metal-free boot on this page skips the steel cap, so it will not conduct cold into the toe box and it clears metal detectors at airports, courthouses, and secure facilities. If you are choosing between materials, our steel toe vs composite toe comparison and our how to choose safety boots guide walk through weight, conductivity, and compliance so you order the right cap the first time.

Frequently asked questions
What is CarbonMAX and is it metal-free?
CarbonMAX is Wolverine's nano-composite safety toe. It is fully non-metallic, meets ASTM F2413, and is lighter than steel or standard composite, so it clears metal detectors.
Is the Wolverine Overpass waterproof?
Yes. It has a waterproof membrane built for rain, mud, and wet ground.
What size should I order in the Overpass?
It runs true to size on a slightly athletic last. Order your normal size unless you wear very thick socks.
How does the Overpass compare to a steel toe boot?
The CarbonMAX toe meets the same ASTM F2413 class but is significantly lighter and non-conductive. See our steel toe vs composite toe guide for the full comparison.
Does the Overpass have Contour Welt flex?
Yes. Contour Welt construction lets the boot flex at the ball of the foot for athletic mobility rather than a stiff traditional welt.
Is the Ortholite footbed removable?
Yes. You can swap the Ortholite footbed for a custom orthotic or a cushioned aftermarket insole.
Is the Overpass insulated?
No. It is a waterproof non-insulated boot. For cold-weather work choose an insulated composite or steel model.
Will the Overpass set off a metal detector?
No. The CarbonMAX toe and metal-free build are designed to pass through detectors at airports and secure sites.
Is the Overpass good for high step-count work?
Yes. The lightweight CarbonMAX toe and Contour Welt flex make it a strong pick for trades who walk a lot during a shift.
What insoles work with the Overpass?
Any standard replacement insole once the Ortholite wears in. Our best work boot insoles guide lists matched cushioned options.
How does the Overpass compare to the Wolverine I-90 EPX?
The Overpass is a lace-up athletic boot; the I-90 EPX is a slip-on romeo. Both use CarbonMAX and are waterproof. Choose by on-off convenience versus ankle support.
Where does the Overpass rank among composite toe boots?
It is our athletic-mobility pick. The best composite toe work boots guide ranks it against rugged and value alternatives.
