Full details
The Magnum Panther 8.0 Side Zip Work Boot is designed for adults requiring reliable and comfortable footwear for occupational use. Its key benefit is the combination of durable, protective materials with a quick-access side zip for ease of use.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
The boots are water-resistant due to their nylon and Magnashield leather upper, offering protection against splashes and light moisture. They are not fully waterproof for submersion.
What does EN ISO 20347:2012 OB E FO SRA certification mean?
This certification indicates the boots meet specific European standards for occupational footwear, including basic safety requirements (OB), energy absorption in the heel (E), resistance to oils (FO), and slip resistance on ceramic and steel surfaces (SRA).
Can I replace the insole?
Yes, the boots come with a removable contour moulded insole, allowing you to replace it with your own custom orthotics if desired.
Are these boots suitable for safety-critical environments requiring toe protection?
These boots are certified under EN ISO 20347:2012, which is for occupational footwear without specific safety-toe protection (like steel or composite toes). For environments requiring such protection, look for boots certified under EN ISO 20345.
How should I clean the leather and nylon parts?
Wipe down the upper with a slightly damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a mild soap solution. Always allow the boots to air dry completely away from direct heat.
What sizes are available?
These boots are available in a range of UK adult sizes. Please refer to the product listing for specific size availability.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff initially
This is normal for new, durable footwear. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in. The materials will soften with use.
Side zip is difficult to operate
Check the zipper for any debris, dirt, or fabric obstruction. Gently clean the zipper track with a damp cloth and ensure it is fully dry before trying again. A small amount of silicone-based lubricant can sometimes help.
Feet feel damp after prolonged wear
While the lining is moisture-wicking, excessive perspiration or exposure to water may eventually saturate the material. Ensure the boots are adequately aired out between wears and consider wearing moisture-wicking socks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These boots require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. They are designed for general occupational use and are compatible with standard work attire. To care for your Magnum Panther 8.0 boots, clean the nylon and Magnashield leather upper with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the materials. Allow the boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. The moisture-wicking lining can be aired out to help maintain freshness. Ensure the side zip is kept free of debris to maintain smooth operation.
