FAQs

What does S3S rating mean for these boots?

The S3S rating indicates specific safety features. 'S3' generally means composite toe cap, penetration-resistant midsole, and basic water resistance. The 'S' often denotes specific standards met, and the 'S' in S3S signifies composite toe protection, while the second 'S' can relate to further specific protections like ESD or resistance standards. These boots specifically meet EN ISO 20347:2022 - O1 HRO SR standards, focusing on non-safety-toed footwear with additional protective features like slip resistance and heat resistance.

How do I clean the microfiber and ripstop polyester uppers?

Wipe the uppers with a damp cloth. For tougher dirt, use a mild soap and water solution, then rinse with a clean damp cloth. Always air dry the boots away from direct heat.

Is the BOA® Fit System durable?

The BOA® Fit System is designed for durability in demanding environments. However, like any mechanical system, it can be susceptible to damage from extreme impacts or prolonged exposure to abrasive materials. Regular cleaning and proper adjustment can help maintain its performance.

Are these boots suitable for wet conditions?

The microfiber and ripstop polyester uppers offer water resistance, and the lining is moisture-wicking to help manage internal moisture. While not fully waterproof, they provide good protection against moderate wetness.

What is the benefit of HH DUAL-STRIDE TECHNOLOGY?

This technology combines EVA and eTPU in the midsole to provide an optimal blend of cushioning for comfort, stability for secure footing, and energy return to help reduce fatigue during long workdays.

Can I replace the Open Cell PU Footbed?

Yes, the Open Cell PU Footbed is removable and can be replaced with aftermarket insoles if desired for personalized comfort or support.

What is the standard for ESD protection?

The boots are certified to BS EN IEC 61340-4-3:2018 for ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) protection, meaning they help to dissipate static electricity safely, which is important in environments where static discharge could be hazardous.

Troubleshooting

BOA® dial is difficult to turn or adjust

Ensure there is no debris obstructing the dial or cable. Try pulling the dial outwards slightly before turning to release tension. Clean the dial area with a dry brush.

Boots feel uncomfortable after extended wear

Adjust the BOA® dial for a less constrictive fit. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Consider if the 'mid' height is sufficient for your ankle support needs. Allow for a break-in period.

Uppers show signs of wear or damage

For minor scuffs, use a damp cloth. For more significant abrasion, consider using a protective spray suitable for synthetic materials. Regularly check molded TPU areas for integrity.

Foot feels excessively warm or damp

Ensure the moisture-wicking lining is clean and dry. Wear moisture-wicking socks. Allow boots to air out thoroughly after use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These boots are ready to wear out of the box. To achieve the best fit, place your foot inside the boot and turn the BOA® dial clockwise until snug. To release, pull the dial outwards. Ensure the lacing is even across your foot.

Compatibility: The boots meet safety standards for composite toe protection (EN ISO 20347:2022 - O1), electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection (BS EN IEC 61340-4-3:2018), and slip resistance (SR). They are suitable for various trades including construction, manufacturing, and warehousing.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the microfiber and ripstop polyester uppers with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and rinse with a clean damp cloth. Allow to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
  • Lining: The moisture-wicking lining can be gently cleaned with a damp cloth. Ensure the boots are completely dry before wearing to maintain breathability.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
