FAQs

Are these boots suitable for very cold weather?

While the boots offer excellent waterproofing and breathability, they are primarily designed for safety and comfort in moderate conditions. For extreme cold, additional thermal socks and liners may be necessary.

Can I replace the BOA® Fit System if it breaks?

Yes, replacement BOA® Fit Systems are often available directly from BOA® or through authorized service centers. Refer to the Helly Hansen warranty information for specific details on replacement parts and service.

How do I know if the composite toe meets my workplace requirements?

The boots feature a composite safety toe, which meets standard safety certifications. It is recommended to confirm with your employer or safety officer that composite toe protection aligns with your specific job site's safety regulations.

What is the difference between this model and a standard fit boot?

This model features a 'Wide Fit' design, offering more volume and space around the forefoot and midfoot compared to standard-fit boots. This is beneficial for individuals who find regular boots too constricting.

How durable is the Helly Tech® membrane?

The Helly Tech® membrane is designed for durability and consistent waterproofing. Proper care, including regular cleaning and avoiding punctures, will help maintain its performance and lifespan.

Are these boots truly waterproof or water-resistant?

These boots feature a Helly Tech® Waterproof Membrane, indicating they are designed to be fully waterproof, effectively preventing water from entering the boot.

Troubleshooting

BOA® dial is stiff or difficult to turn.

Ensure the dial is pushed in correctly before turning. Clean any debris from the dial and lace guides with a soft brush. If stiffness persists, consult the manufacturer's support.

Water seeping into the boots.

Check the Helly Tech® membrane for any visible damage or holes. Ensure all seams are intact. Clean the exterior thoroughly and consider applying a suitable waterproofing treatment if the membrane's performance seems diminished.

Foot discomfort despite the wide fit.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Try adjusting the BOA® system for a more personalized fit. If discomfort continues, the boot's internal shape may not suit your foot, and trying a different size or model might be necessary.

Laces not tightening properly.

Make sure the BOA® dial is fully pushed in before tightening. Check that the laces are not tangled or caught on anything. If the lacing system appears damaged, contact customer support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These boots require no specific setup beyond initial wear to break in. The BOA® Fit System is operated by simply pushing the dial in, turning it to tighten the laces, and pulling the dial out to release. Ensure the dial is fully engaged when tightening.

Compatibility:

Suitable for general adult work environments requiring safety footwear, especially those with wet conditions or where metal-free safety is a benefit. They are designed to meet safety standards for composite toes and nail penetration resistance. Check with your specific workplace safety regulations for compliance.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Waterproofing: To maintain the Helly Tech® performance, periodically check and clean the boot of any debris that could compromise the membrane. Specialized waterproofing sprays can be used if recommended by the manufacturer, following product instructions.
  • Lining: Allow boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Remove insoles for faster drying if needed.
  • BOA® System: Keep the dial and lace system free from excessive mud or debris. A soft brush can help clean the mechanism.
