Product Information
Full details
These Grafters Safety Rigger Boots are designed for adult males requiring robust foot protection in demanding work environments. They offer a key benefit of comprehensive safety features including a steel toe cap and midsole, combined with thermal lining for comfort. A potential caveat is their specific UK size 11 fit, which may not suit all individuals. Key features include a scuff-resistant toe cap, padded ankle support, and a durable dual-density PU sole that is resistant to fuel oil, heat (up to 150°C), and provides antistatic properties.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
The product description does not specify waterproof features. The leather upper and 'Other' sole material may offer some resistance to moisture, but they are not guaranteed to be fully waterproof.
What is the specific safety standard they conform to?
The boots conform to the EN ISO 20345 Safety Standard, which indicates they meet rigorous safety requirements for protective footwear.
How should I break in these safety boots?
Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing the duration. Ensure you are wearing suitable socks. The leather upper will naturally mold to your foot over time.
Can the faux fur lining be removed?
The faux fur lining is integrated into the boot's construction and is not designed to be removable.
What does 'heel energy absorption is 20J' mean?
This means the heel of the boot can absorb up to 20 Joules of energy upon impact, providing cushioning and reducing shock to the wearer's heel.
How do I determine if UK size 11 is the correct fit for me?
Compare your foot measurements to a standard UK size chart. Consider the thickness of the socks you will typically wear with the boots.
Are these boots suitable for welding environments?
The boots offer heat resistance up to 150°C and fuel oil resistance, which can be beneficial in some welding-related tasks. However, specific welding boot features like flame-retardant materials are not mentioned.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If discomfort persists after a break-in period, the size may not be suitable. Consult the size guide for accurate fitting.
Reduced grip on surfaces.
Clean the sole of any dirt, oil, or debris. Check for excessive wear on the tread pattern. The sole is designed for specific resistances; very slick surfaces may still present a challenge.
Leather appears dry or cracked.
Apply a suitable leather conditioner to restore moisture and flexibility. Ensure boots are not exposed to excessive heat or left to dry out completely.
Thermal lining is too warm for the conditions.
For extremely hot environments, consider alternative footwear with less insulation. These boots are optimized for warmth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These safety boots require no specific setup. They are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and safety.
Compatibility: These boots are designed for adult males and conform to the EN ISO 20345 safety standard, making them suitable for a wide range of industrial and trade environments that mandate safety footwear. The UK size 11 fit is specific to this variant.
Care:
- Cleaning: Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust from the leather upper. For stubborn marks, a mild leather cleaner can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
- Drying: If the boots become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources or radiators, as this can damage the leather and lining.
- Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to the upper to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
- Sole Maintenance: Check the sole regularly for wear and tear, and clear any embedded debris to maintain grip.
