FAQs

What does S3S safety rating mean?

S3S indicates the boots offer basic safety (S) with features including penetration resistance (3), and additional features like slip resistance (SR), oil resistance (FO), and heat resistance (HRO). The 'S' signifies closed-toe protection against impact, and the secondary 'S' denotes resistance to perforation.

Is the composite toe as protective as steel?

Yes, the composite safety toe meets the same impact protection standards as steel toes (EN ISO 20345) but is lighter and does not conduct heat or cold.

How do I clean the microfiber and ripstop polyester uppers?

Use a damp cloth with water to wipe away dirt. For tougher marks, a mild soap and water solution can be used. Always allow the boots to air dry naturally.

Can the BOA® Fit System be replaced if damaged?

Yes, BOA® offers replacement parts and services for their fit systems. Check the BOA® website or contact Helly Hansen customer support for assistance.

Are these boots suitable for very wet conditions?

The uppers are water-resistant, which helps protect against splashes and light moisture. However, they are not fully waterproof. For extremely wet environments, consider boots with a higher waterproof rating.

What is HH DUAL-STRIDE TECHNOLOGY?

It's a proprietary cushioning system combining EVA and eTPU materials to deliver a balance of softness for comfort and responsiveness for energy return, enhancing stability throughout the day.

What is the benefit of the metal-free construction?

Metal-free components, such as the composite toe and nail penetration protection, are lighter, do not trigger metal detectors, and are non-conductive, offering advantages in certain work environments.

Troubleshooting

BOA® dial is stiff or difficult to turn

Ensure the lace system is free of debris. Gently work the dial back and forth. If persistent, contact customer support.

Boots feel uncomfortable after extended wear

Adjust the BOA® dial for a less constrictive fit. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Consider using insoles if further cushioning is desired.

Water is still penetrating the uppers

While water-resistant, the uppers are not fully waterproof. For prolonged exposure to water, consider waterproof gaiters or alternative footwear. Check for damage to the material.

Static discharge protection seems ineffective

Ensure the boots are clean and dry. Static dissipation can be affected by environmental humidity and floor surfaces. Refer to the ESD standards for specific environmental requirements.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional comfort and support due to advanced cushioning technology.
  • Secure and easily adjustable fit with the BOA® Fit System.
  • Durable construction with water and abrasion-resistant materials.
  • Lightweight protection with composite toe and metal-free midsole.
  • Enhanced visibility with reflective detailing.
  • Suitable for environments requiring ESD protection.

Cons

  • The S3S rating may not encompass all potential workplace hazards.
  • Microfiber and polyester uppers, while durable, may not offer the same stiffness as full-grain leather for certain tasks.
  • BOA® Fit System components, while reliable, are a potential point of failure over extreme extended use.
  • Mid-top design may not be preferred by those seeking ankle-high protection.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Helly Hansen Kensington MXR Mid BOA S3S Safety Boots require no assembly. To achieve the optimal fit, insert your foot into the boot and twist the BOA® dial until the desired snugness is achieved. To release, pull the dial outwards.

Compatibility: These boots are designed to meet EN ISO 20345:2022 (S3S FO HRO SR) and BS EN IEC 61340-4-3:2018 (ESD) standards, making them suitable for a wide range of professional applications including construction, manufacturing, logistics, and environments requiring static discharge protection.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the uppers with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap and water solution. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place near direct heat sources, as this can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
