Questions crews ask
Is Tiger King footwear wide-fit?
Yes. Every Tiger King boot and shoe is built wide and roomy, with extra space through the toe and room for thicker work socks. Use the size chart on this page to pick your size. Some pairs come with a removable spacer insert to fine-tune the fit, but not all do.
Is Tiger King footwear heavy?
No. Every style uses lightweight composite materials instead of steel, which cuts down fatigue over long shifts while still meeting CSA protection standards.
What jobs is Tiger King footwear best for?
Demanding work environments: construction, warehouses, skilled trades, logistics, and general industrial settings. CSA Grade 1 protection, a composite toe, a puncture plate and slip resistance are standard across the range. Check each product page for the specific build: the low-cut shoes (Michigan, Tofino) suit lighter indoor work, the 6-inch and 8-inch boots add ankle support, and Niagara and Superior add waterproofing for outdoor sites.
Are they comfortable for all-day wear?
Yes. Cushioned insoles and built-in shock absorption support long hours on your feet, so you stay comfortable through the shift without pressure points building up.
Is Tiger King safety footwear CSA approved?
Yes. All Tiger King safety boots and shoes are CSA Z195 Grade 1 certified (green triangle) for impact, compression, and puncture resistance, making them suitable for a wide range of work environments in Canada.
Do you offer waterproof options?
Yes. Select styles, including the Niagara and Superior, are built with waterproof protection to keep you dry in wet or outdoor conditions. Look for the waterproof label on the product page to confirm.
Can I wear Tiger King footwear indoors and outdoors?
Yes. Our footwear is built to handle both. The shoes and boots are at home indoors in warehouses, stockrooms, and skilled-trades shops, and just as capable outdoors on job sites. The right pick depends on the style, so check the product page for the conditions each one is made for.
Are Tiger King boots and shoes slip-resistant?
Yes. The outsoles are designed to provide reliable traction on common work surfaces such as concrete, tile, and industrial flooring.
Is Tiger King the same as Tiger Safety?
Tiger King is the direct-to-you B2C brand from the same second-generation Canadian family company that has made Tiger Safety work footwear since 2007. Same CSA Grade 1 standards; tigerkingshoes.ca is where you buy direct.
What crews say
4.5/5 from 73 reviews of Michigan Men's
Often, "steel toe" is used for any safety toe. Every current Tiger King style is composite and metal-free.

Excellent and new customer.
So comfortable and light weight. The size is spot on and the toe space is perfect. Even the rubber height is the proper height with a bit of bounce. Most are like hockey pucks 2” thick making them so bulky [...] So comfortable and light weight. The size is spot on and the toe space is perfect. Even the rubber height is the proper height with a bit of bounce. Most are like hockey pucks 2” thick making them so bulky and heavy. You only get one pair of feet and they thank you.Please don’t ever change the design and sizing. It takes forever to find safety shoes that fit great and then a year later they’re a lot different in size and don’t fit at all.

Very very high quality. Very very high quality for the price. The best looking and performing safety shoe in the market right now. The previous experience is of wearing Dakota shoes Worth $160 from Marks, Sidewinder shoes Worth $214 from Mr. Safety Boots, and different kind of shoes from Walmart as well. This just beat them all.

These fit the bill - they are comfortable, well built and anti-slip. The toe box is very roomy and provides ample protection. The fit is very good, with great laces. CSA approved, I can't ask for more! Very comfortable for 8 hr days!

Highly recommend!
I first bought Tiger boots because they were affordable, but they’ve ended up being my most consistent work shoes. They've lasted years, and are so comfy.

Confortables
Achetés depuis des années… spacieux, confortables, et le nouveau design est sympa.

Great quality very light, obviously very tough work shoes. Easy 5 stars.

My problem wasn't about the quality of the Chelsea. The quality was obviously there, as were the work-site protections offered by the brand, but the fit wasn't mine.But I've also always preferred derby lacing anyways, and I've always preferred shoes to boots, so I took an opportunity to try the Michigan low-profile (more or less derby shoe) because of the obvious overall quality of the first pair.My reasoning, besides generally preferring shoes, was that the derby lacing might make for a tighter fit of the upper, and if so, I'd enjoy the width of the rest of the shoe better. especially around the toe.*Great decision*. First, there's perfect room for my toes but no excess movement in the rest of the shoe that can cause blisters. Very comfortable fit.And, these are like wearing lightweight tanks on my feet. I don't mean they're cumbersome. They're not at all. It's easy to walk in these. I mean that they feel solid, secure and capable. Wonderfully, they're simply not very heavy. They're just strong and protective.These won't be a four season shoe for me given that it can get to -40° C/F where I live (I have boots for that) but these will easily be a three season shoe, and they're perfectly suitable for indoor or outdoor, in all but the dressier of occasions. They're plainly a work shoe, but they look good.Plus, the insole is terrific. I can use the support because of plantar fasciitis. These don't make my feet hurt. YMMV but I found the arch support perfect on these. I chose (again) size 9.5 because that's my usual with a somewhat thick military OTC sock, and the fit is exactly what I hoped for.I'm happy to give these a full 5 stars.

They’re dressier, I can wear them with my uniform and they are SO comfortable and warm. Here’s some pics of them when they arrived. (Pup liked them too) I like the details on the stitching and even the box looks cool.

Comfortable Work Shoes
Bought these for a mix of office and warehouse work. They’re lightweight, look dressy enough for the office, and the wider toe box makes a noticeable difference in comfort.

Shoes are not comfortable
Fabric is not good and very hard material, not good for walk, feet start hurting after few minutes.
-
Great boots
Great boots for the money, the sizing is off because the ankle is way too loose and gets looser over time. I ordered an 8.5 brown boot but should have ordered an 8 because of the looseness around the ankle
