FAQs
Are these shoes metal-free?
Yes, the I-Code series is entirely metal-free, making it ideal for workplaces that utilize metal detectors.
Can I use these in an environment with sensitive electronics?
Yes, the shoes are ESD compliant, meaning they are designed to safely dissipate static electricity.
How do I tighten the shoe?
The shoe uses a BOA closing system; simply press the dial in and rotate clockwise to tighten the fit.
What is the safety rating?
The I-Code features an S1P safety rating, including puncture-resistant soles and 200-joule toe caps.
Is the sole resistant to chemicals?
The sole is specifically designed to be hydrocarbon-resistant, making it suitable for environments where oil and fuel spills may occur.
Are these suitable for outdoor construction?
While durable, these are optimized for industrial environments; the microfibre upper is best suited for cleaner, professional sites.
Troubleshooting
BOA dial feels stiff or jammed
Check for debris or dirt around the dial mechanism; clean with a soft brush and water if necessary.
Internal odors persistent after cleaning
Remove the inserts and wash separately, then ensure the shoe interior is fully dry before re-inserting.
Reduced slip resistance on oily surfaces
Thoroughly clean the AirTech + TPU-Skin sole to remove trapped oils and ensure the tread patterns are free of obstructions.
Pros and Cons

- Metal-free construction makes them lightweight and metal detector friendly
- BOA closure provides consistent, customizable tension
- Excellent odor control from SmellStop technology
- Certified ESD protection for electronics manufacturing

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, rotate the BOA dial clockwise until secure, ensuring even tension across the instep. Pull the dial outward to release the tension quickly when removing the shoes. To maintain the integrity of the microfibre upper, wipe the shoes down with a damp cloth after exposure to oils or chemicals to prevent material degradation. Periodically check the outsole for embedded debris to ensure maximum traction, and replace the insoles if you notice a loss in cushioning after heavy extended use. Always store in a dry, ventilated area to allow the antibacterial lining to cycle air.
