FAQs

Are these boots slip-resistant?

Yes, the boots have a deep cleated rubber outsole designed to provide good grip and reduce the risk of slips and falls.

What is the steel toe cap rating?

The steel toe cap provides impact resistance up to 200 joules.

Are these boots waterproof?

Yes, the boots feature an internal waterproof membrane to keep your feet dry.

What is the material of the upper?

The upper is made of full-grain leather.

Do these boots have a side zip?

Yes, they have a YKK side zip for easy access.

What type of midsole protection do they offer?

They have a steel midsole providing anti-penetration protection.

Are the boots suitable for all weather conditions?

They are designed for wet and cold conditions due to the waterproof membrane and leather construction, but they may not be ideal for very hot environments.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

Allow for a break-in period. Wear the boots for short periods, gradually increasing the duration to allow the leather to soften and the boots to mold to your feet.

Water is entering the boots.

Ensure the boots are properly laced. Check for any damage to the leather or seams. If the issue persists, the waterproof membrane may be compromised.

Side zip is difficult to operate.

Lubricate the zipper with a zipper lubricant or a bar of soap. Check for any obstructions or debris in the zipper.

Outsole is losing grip.

Clean the outsole regularly to remove any dirt or debris that may reduce traction. If the outsole is excessively worn, consider replacing the boots.
