FAQs

Are these boots suitable for women?

Yes, the boots are designed with Unisex width options, and a size guide is available to help find the perfect fit for both men and women.

What does S3 CI SRC mean?

S3 indicates resistance to water penetration, a composite or metal protective toe-cap, and a penetration-resistant midsole. CI signifies cold insulation, and SRC denotes high resistance to slip.

Can I wear my own insoles?

Yes, these boots are compatible with orthopaedic footbeds that comply with European norm DGUV112-191.

How do I clean the waxy leather upper?

Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For best results and to maintain water resistance, apply a quality leather conditioner specifically for waxy leather.

What is the temperature rating for cold insulation?

The boots provide cold insulation up to -17°C.

Are the toe caps made of metal?

No, these boots are 100% metal-free, featuring a SlimCap composite toe-cap that is resistant to 200 joules.

How resistant are these boots to chemicals?

The sole is resistant to hydrocarbons, and the upper is water-resistant. Specific chemical resistance details beyond hydrocarbons are not listed.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size using the provided size guide. Break in the boots by wearing them for short periods initially, gradually increasing wear time.

Water seeping through the upper

Reapply a suitable water-resistant treatment or conditioner designed for waxy leather to the upper. Check for any visible damage or wear to the material.

Reduced cushioning effect over time

The Air Tech + TPU-Skin sole is designed for long-term durability. If cushioning feels reduced, consider if the orthopaedic footbed needs replacement or adjustment.

Excessive static discharge

While the boots are anti-static, extreme environmental conditions can sometimes override this. Ensure any specialized grounding equipment in your work environment is functioning correctly.

  • Not designed for extreme cold temperatures beyond -17°C.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These boots require no initial setup beyond ensuring the correct fit. They are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: These shoes comply with UNI EN ISO 20345:2012 S3 CI SRC standards, making them suitable for environments requiring these safety certifications. They are compatible with orthopaedic footbeds that meet DGUV112-191 norms.
