FAQs

Are these Dunlop boots waterproof?

The product description highlights oil resistance and anti-slip properties, but does not explicitly state they are waterproof. They are designed to protect in general site conditions and offer resistance to certain liquids like oil, but may not be suitable for full submersion or prolonged exposure to heavy water.

What does 'EN ISO 20345 (SB)' mean?

EN ISO 20345 is an international standard for safety footwear. 'SB' (Safety Basic) indicates that the boots meet fundamental safety requirements, including having a steel toe cap capable of resisting a 200 Joule impact and 15,000 Newton compression force. This ensures basic protection for your toes.

How should I clean the Nubuck leather upper?

For the Nubuck leather, use a specialized nubuck brush to remove dry dirt and restore the nap. For tougher stains, a nubuck cleaning solution can be applied sparingly according to product instructions. Always allow the boots to air dry completely.

Are these safety boots heavy?

Despite their robust safety features, these Dunlop On Site boots are described as 'lightweight'. This design choice aims to minimize fatigue and enhance comfort during extended periods of wear in demanding work environments.

Can I wear these boots for an entire workday?

Yes, these boots are designed for extended wear. Features such as the padded ankle collar and tongue, mesh lining for breathability, and a lightweight construction contribute to comfort and support throughout a full workday on site.

What type of surfaces are these boots most suitable for?

Thanks to their anti-slip and oil-resistant sole with rubber lugs, these boots are highly suitable for various challenging surfaces. This includes concrete, dirt, gravel, and potentially oily or slick floors common in construction sites, industrial facilities, and workshops.

Troubleshooting

My boots feel uncomfortable or cause rubbing after extended wear.

Ensure you have the correct size and are wearing appropriate work socks. Try adjusting the lacing for a more customized fit. New leather boots may require a short break-in period to soften and conform to your feet.

The soles seem to be losing their grip.

Check the rubber lugs for embedded debris like small stones or mud, which can reduce grip. Clean the soles regularly with a stiff brush and water to maintain the anti-slip properties. Excessive wear on the sole tread may indicate it's time for replacement.

My boots develop an unpleasant odor.

Utilize the mesh lining's breathability by allowing your boots to air out thoroughly after each use, removing insoles if possible. Consider using odor-absorbing inserts or sprays specifically designed for footwear to keep them fresh.

The Nubuck leather upper looks dirty or scuffed.

Use a specialized nubuck brush to gently remove dirt and restore the texture. For deeper cleaning, apply a dedicated nubuck cleaner according to its instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water, which can damage the material.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior toe protection meeting EN ISO 20345 (SB) standards (200 Joule impact, 15,000 Newton compression).
  • Enhanced safety with oil-resistant and anti-slip sole, featuring rubber lugs for excellent grip.
  • Comfort-focused design including a padded ankle collar, tongue, and mesh lining for breathability.
  • Durable Nubuck leather upper built to withstand demanding work environments.
  • Lightweight construction helps reduce fatigue during long periods of wear.

Cons

  • May require a short break-in period due to the robust Nubuck leather material.
  • Not explicitly marketed as fully waterproof, primarily focused on slip and impact protection.
  • Can be less flexible than non-safety footwear due to integrated protective elements.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Proper setup, understanding compatibility, and consistent care will maximize the lifespan and effectiveness of your Dunlop On Site Steel Toe Cap Boots.

Setup

  1. Lacing: Ensure the boots are laced securely but comfortably. Start lacing from the bottom eyelets, pulling evenly to distribute pressure. A snug fit prevents foot movement inside the boot, which can cause rubbing and blisters. The lace fastening allows for a customizable fit.
  2. Initial Wear: Although described as lightweight and comfortable, it's advisable to wear your new boots for shorter periods initially to allow them to conform to your feet.

Compatibility

These boots are specifically designed for environments requiring safety footwear. Their EN ISO 20345 (SB) certification makes them suitable for:

  • Construction and building sites
  • Manufacturing and industrial facilities
  • Warehouses and logistics operations
  • Environments where there's a risk of foot impact, compression, or slippery/oily surfaces.

Note: Always check specific site regulations for required safety ratings beyond SB if your work involves additional hazards like puncture resistance (P), electrical hazard (EH), or metatarsal protection (M).

Care

  1. Cleaning the Upper: The Nubuck Leather upper should be cleaned regularly. Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and debris. For tougher stains, a specialized nubuck cleaner and conditioner can be used. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive materials.
  2. Cleaning the Sole: After use, especially on muddy or oily surfaces, clean the anti-slip sole and rubber lugs to maintain optimal grip. A stiff brush and water are usually sufficient. Ensure no debris is embedded in the lugs.
  3. Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, as this can damage the leather and adhesives.
  4. Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place when not in use. Consider using boot trees to help maintain their shape.
  5. Inspection: Regularly inspect the boots for signs of wear, especially the steel toe area, sole integrity, and stitching. Replace boots if significant damage is present, as their protective qualities may be compromised.
