At Carhartt Shop (“we”, “us”, or “our”), operating at www.formenshoes.com, we understand that industrial workers and outdoor professionals value their privacy as much as they value durable work footwear.

  • Sensitive payment data is tokenized and never stored on our servers
  • Regular security audits and real-time fraud monitoring
