FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for very hot outdoor work?

Yes, the perforated upper and breathable lining are specifically designed to enhance air circulation in warm conditions, making them suitable for hot environments.

What level of protection do the steel components offer?

The steel toecap is designed to protect against impacts up to 200 joules, and the steel midsole provides resistance against penetration from sharp objects.

Can I wear these trainers if I work with chemicals?

The sole is fuel and oil-resistant, but these trainers are not rated for heavy chemical protection. For specific chemical hazards, consult a safety professional for appropriate footwear.

How should I clean the suede upper?

Gently brush off dry dirt with a suede brush. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth and let the shoes air dry naturally. Avoid soaking the suede.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, these trainers are designed for breathability and are not waterproof. They are suitable for dry to damp conditions where ventilation is key.

What does 'anti-static' mean in this context?

The anti-static properties help to dissipate static electricity that can build up during movement, which is important in certain work environments where static discharge could be a hazard.

What is the slip resistance rating?

These trainers have an SRC slip-resistance rating, meaning they have been tested on ceramic and steel surfaces with water and cleaning agents and offer the highest level of slip resistance.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or pressure points

Ensure the correct size has been selected. Try wearing thicker socks or breaking in the shoes with shorter periods of wear initially. Check for any debris inside the shoe.

Reduced breathability

Clean the perforated upper and breathable lining to remove any dust or debris that may be obstructing airflow. Ensure socks are made of moisture-wicking material.

Slip resistance seems reduced

Clean the outsole thoroughly as dirt, oil, or other contaminants can affect grip. The SRC rating is based on specific testing conditions; use caution on very slick surfaces.
