I Have 30+ Years of Experience in Hydronic Work, and This Boot Has Never Let Me Down.

My name’s George, and I come from a line of folks who aren’t afraid to get their hands dirty. I was 11 years old when I held a pipe wrench for the first time. My contractor father handed it to me with a wink, as if passing down a family heirloom. “You want to always have a job, son? Learn how to fix things.”  

For the last three decades, I’ve been the proud owner of George’s Drains LLC in Stanhope, New Jersey. Drain cleaning, piping, and hydronic systems are my bread and butter, and there’s rarely a quiet day.

But it hasn’t all been smooth sailing. Life threw its curveballs, including a business bankruptcy and a difficult divorce. But two things kept me grounded: my family and my work. That’s where BRUNT comes in—their boots have been as much a part of my career as my toolbox.

Tools of the Trades

When it comes to what I wear on the job, I need something as reliable as my torch and wrench. BRUNT’s The Marin Boot has been with me through it all. From slick surfaces to long hours on concrete floors, these boots give me the comfort and protection I need to keep going. 

Why BRUNT? Because when you’re dealing with busted pipes and the general unpredictability of life, you need something reliable under your feet, and something truly designed with the worker in mind. 

True Craftsmanship For Hardworking Tradesmen

If you’re in the trades, you know the importance of reliable gear. BRUNT’s super comfortable boots hit every mark. 

Protection you can trust. Crafted with reinforced stitching, The Marin boots protect me from work hazards like heat up to 572ºF, slippery surfaces, and even the occasional splash of mystery fluid (trust me, you don’t want to know). And when I’m figuring out a busted pipe, the oil and slip-resistant BRUNT Rubber Outsole has my back—ensuring I stay upright no matter what.

Comfort? BRUNT has no painful break-in period. The premium Cush’n insoles are like a soft, supportive bed after a long day—only this bed keeps nasty odors at bay, thanks to some clever anti-odor treatment. Their adjustable fit and arch support are unparalleled, making them boots I could wear all day without any problems.

Handsome boot. While I’m no style icon (fashion is a casualty of my work, I suppose), I DO try to look put-together for my beautiful wife. According to her and my kids, The Marin design is apparently “hip.” Who knew? The tough barnyard-resistant leather and triple-stitched stress points keep my boots looking nice, even when my job tries to wear them down.

Money-back guarantee. What’s even better? BRUNT understands the value of a hard-earned dollar. Their risk-free trial shows they stand by their product as much as I stand by my work. Considering The Marin has sold out multiple times, they’ve created a product that reflects the real needs of tradesmen like us. 

Life is Worth Every Moment & BRUNT is Worth Every Penny

Seeing my family at the end of a long day reminds me of why I keep going, even when the going gets tough. Whether they choose to follow in my footsteps or carve their own paths, I hope to show them the value of hard work and dedication—qualities that The Marin Boot exemplifies.

So, if you’re in the trades and looking for a boot that gets you through thick and thin, consider BRUNT boots. They’re an investment in your comfort, safety, and performance on the job. Trust me, your feet (and your back) will thank you.
