Project Ideas

Business

Mobile Boot Care Bar for Jobsites

Offer on-site cleaning, conditioning, and inspection for crews. Use leather-safe cleaners and conditioners suited to cowhide; optionally apply water-repellent wax for light splash resistance (not a replacement for waterproof boots). Sell care kits and schedule recurring service contracts for contractors.


Crew Fitting Clinics + Group Orders

Host pop-up try-on events at shops and sites to size workers in regular (D) width and take consolidated orders. Negotiate bulk pricing with retailers/distributors, handle size runs (US 7–13), and manage exchanges. Upsell insoles, laces, and care products to increase per-crew revenue.


Custom Kilties and Lace Guards

Produce removable leather kilties, lace guards, and branded lace tags that fit moc-toe work boots. Offer company logo stamping/etching so crews can brand their footwear without altering safety features. Sell online and via jobsite reps as a morale and identity booster for teams.


Work Boot Field Tests Content Channel

Create video and blog reviews testing comfort, impact protection, and stability on real projects (dry conditions). Monetize with affiliate links, sponsorships, and ad revenue. Compare wedge/athletic hybrids versus traditional soles, and produce maintenance tutorials that drive kit sales.


Hands-On ‘Build & Try’ Workshops

Partner with a retailer to run weekend workshops where attendees build a small project (e.g., shop stool or planter box) while demoing the boots. Earn event fees, sales commissions, and sell add-on care kits. Capture user feedback to improve future events and content.

Creative

Mobile 4x4 Workbench Build

Design and build a heavy-duty, rolling workbench from 4x4 legs, laminated plywood top, and locking casters. The steel safety toe helps when moving timbers and casters around your toes, while the moc-toe flex and EVA/PU cushioning keep you comfortable during repeated kneeling, squaring, and assembly. Ideal for a dry shop environment where the mesh lining can breathe.


Flagstone or Brick Walkway

Lay a dry-set flagstone or reclaimed-brick path. You’ll haul and set heavy pavers, tamp base, and finesse level—all tasks that benefit from the wedge-like stability of the FLEX outsole on compacted gravel and the steel toe against impacts. Schedule for clear weather since the boots aren’t water resistant.


Garage Overhead Storage + French-Cleat Wall

Install ceiling-mounted racks and a full French-cleat tool wall. Climbing ladders, toeing onto rungs, and frequent kneeling for layout plays to the moc-toe flexibility and cushioned midsole, while the steel toe is there if a stud finder, drill, or fastener box slips.


Raised Garden Beds and Potting Station

Build cedar raised beds and a potting bench. You’ll carry soil bags, cut and screw lumber, and work on uneven ground—good use of the outsole’s stable platform and cushioning. Work on dry days; add an aftermarket leather conditioner for longevity, understanding it won’t make the boots waterproof.


Porch Steps from Reclaimed Timbers

Fabricate a set of sturdy outdoor steps using reclaimed 6x6s and decking. Precision cuts, heavy lifts, and plenty of kneeling are cushioned by the EVA midsole and supported by the moc-toe flex, while the steel toe offers impact protection when positioning the timbers. Best done in dry conditions.
