The Exos Lite 985 features:

Red Wing Leather
Starting with hides from U.S.-raised cattle with minimal surface imperfections, we control every step of the process, using time-honored techniques to craft leather with natural beauty and unmatched durability.
Red Wing Waterproofing System
This system uses a 3-layer approach to keep feet dry.1 - Linings help move moisture away from the foot to keep it dry. 2 - Foam provides cushioning and a comfortable fit. 3 - A waterproof bootie is a barrier to keep water out. Tricot, a protective material, is applied to the outside of the bootie to ensure a complete waterproof system.
Screen Shield
A thin but highly durable coating for the toe and other high-wear areas of a work boot that enhances durability with minimal weight.
Slip Resistant
Standard for performance requirements when evaluating slip resistance of protective footwear using a certified whole shoe test method.
