FAQs

What does EN 20345 S1 rating mean?

The EN 20345 S1 rating signifies that the shoes meet European safety standards, including protection against a 200-joule impact, a 15-kilonewton compression, an energy-absorbing heel, and are anti-static with an anti-penetration midsole.

How do I clean the aluminum toe cap?

The aluminum toe cap is internal and protected by the shoe's exterior. Clean the exterior of the shoe as recommended in the care instructions. The internal toe cap requires no specific cleaning.

Is the BOA® Fit System durable?

Yes, the BOA® Fit System is engineered for durability and reliability in demanding conditions. It is designed to withstand a significant number of adjustment cycles.

Can these shoes be used in wet conditions?

While the shoes feature moisture-wicking linings, they are not fully waterproof. They are designed for general work environments and offer slip resistance, but prolonged immersion in water is not recommended.

What is the difference between this model and other Chelsea Evolution trainers?

This model features the BOA® Fit System and aluminum toe cap for enhanced safety and fit. Other models in the Chelsea Evolution series may have different closure systems (like traditional laces) or varying levels of safety features (e.g., soft toe).

What is the weight of these trainers?

The item weight is approximately 1.73 KG for a pair, though this can vary slightly depending on the size.

Troubleshooting

BOA® dial is stiff or difficult to turn

Ensure the dial is clean and free of debris. Try gently toggling it on and off. If issues persist, check the lace path for obstructions.

Shoe feels too tight/loose after adjustment

Release the BOA® dial by pulling it out, then re-adjust by turning clockwise for tighter or loosening by pulling the dial out further. Ensure the laces are evenly tensioned.

Reduced slip resistance over time

Clean the sole regularly to remove trapped dirt or debris that can affect grip. The sole material may also wear down over prolonged use; consider replacement if grip is significantly compromised.

Discomfort or pressure points

Ensure you have selected the correct size and width. Adjust the BOA® system for a balanced fit. Wear appropriate socks and break in the shoes gradually.

  • Footwear: Compatible with standard sock wear. Due to the advanced safety features, ensure no modifications are made that could compromise their integrity.

Care:

  • Drying: Air dry the trainers naturally away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
