FAQs
What does the S3WR safety rating mean?
S3WR is a safety standard indicating the boots have a steel toe cap, steel midsole for puncture protection, are water-resistant (WR), and meet other safety requirements like anti-static properties.
Are these boots suitable for very hot weather?
While designed for protection, the leather and steel components may make them warmer than lighter footwear. They are best suited for environments where safety is the priority over extreme breathability.
How do I break in these safety boots?
Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing the duration. Ensure laces are adjusted for comfort. Walking on different surfaces can also help.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the boots are designed to accommodate replacement insoles. Choose insoles that offer appropriate support and cushioning for your needs.
What is the difference between the Black and Honey/Brown versions?
The primary difference is color. The material (nubuck leather) and safety features (S3WR, steel toe/midsole) remain consistent across variants.
How long do the water-resistant properties typically last?
The longevity of water resistance depends on usage and care. Regular reapplication of waterproofing treatments is recommended to maintain effectiveness.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring a snug but not restrictive fit. If discomfort persists, the size may not be suitable.
Water is penetrating the boots
The water-resistant treatment may have worn off. Clean the boots and reapply a suitable waterproofing treatment for nubuck leather. Check for any visible damage to the material or seams.
Reduced slip resistance
Clean the sole of the boots thoroughly, as mud or debris can reduce traction. If the sole is visibly worn down, it may be time to consider replacement.
Static electricity build-up
Ensure the anti-static properties of the boots are maintained by keeping them clean. Avoid wearing non-anti-static socks or insoles, which can counteract the boot's properties.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These boots require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure they fit snugly but comfortably.
Compatibility: Designed for general adult male footwear sizing (UK 12). They are compatible with most standard workwear and protective clothing.
Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe down the leather with a damp cloth to remove dirt. For tougher grime, use a specialized leather cleaner.
- Water Resistance: To maintain water resistance, periodically apply a suitable waterproofing spray or wax treatment specifically designed for nubuck leather.
- Drying: If the boots become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the sole, stitching, and toe cap for any signs of wear or damage.
