FAQs

What does S3S rating mean for these boots?

The S3S rating indicates compliance with EN ISO 20345:2022 standards. S3 signifies basic (SB) plus penetration resistance (P) and shock absorption (A), plus resistance to water absorption (WR) and water penetration (WRO). The 'S' denotes safety shoes, and the additional 'S' signifies specific requirements for slip resistance (SR), oil resistance (FO), and high heat resistance (HRO).

How does the HH DUAL-STRIDE TECHNOLOGY work?

This technology combines two different foam materials, EVA and eTPU, in the midsole. EVA provides lightweight cushioning, while eTPU offers superior energy return and durability. This blend ensures a balance of comfort, stability, and responsiveness throughout the day.

Are these boots suitable for working in wet conditions?

Yes, the uppers are made from water-resistant materials, and the boots meet WR standards, meaning they offer resistance to water absorption and penetration. The moisture-wicking lining also helps keep feet dry from sweat.

Can the BOA Fit System be replaced if it breaks?

Yes, BOA systems are designed to be repairable. Replacement parts or kits are often available through BOA or authorized service centers, allowing you to maintain the boots' fit system without needing to replace the entire boot.

What is ESD protection and why is it important?

ESD stands for Electrostatic Discharge. This protection prevents the buildup and uncontrolled release of static electricity. It's crucial in environments where static electricity could damage sensitive electronic components or pose a risk of ignition in flammable atmospheres.

How do I ensure I choose the correct UK size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by Helly Hansen or the retailer. Measure your foot length and compare it to the UK sizing equivalents. The Kensington MXR Mid BOA S3S boots are available in various UK sizes, as indicated in the product details.

What is the warranty period for these boots?

Warranty information typically varies by retailer and region. It is recommended to check the specific warranty terms provided by the seller at the time of purchase or consult the official Helly Hansen website for general warranty guidelines on safety footwear.

Troubleshooting

BOA dial is stiff or difficult to turn.

Ensure the dial and the surrounding area are free of dirt and debris. A small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the dial mechanism if it persists. Check that the laces are not tangled.

Boots feel uncomfortable or cause pressure points.

Re-adjust the BOA dial to ensure an even fit across the foot. Try different lacing configurations if possible. Consider using aftermarket insoles for personalized arch support. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks.

Water ingress despite water-resistant uppers.

Check for any damage to the uppers, seams, or sole that might compromise water resistance. Ensure the tongue is properly seated to prevent water from entering the ankle area. Allow boots to dry completely and consider applying a suitable waterproofing treatment if needed.

Reduced grip on slippery surfaces.

Clean the outsole thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris that might be hindering traction. The HELLYGRIP rubber is designed for optimal performance, but accumulated grime can reduce its effectiveness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These boots are ready to wear out of the box. To adjust the fit, simply turn the BOA dial clockwise until the desired snugness is achieved. To release, pull the dial outwards. Ensure the dial is fully engaged when tightening for optimal security.

Compatibility: The boots 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 industrial and professional environments, including those with electrostatic discharge risks. They are compatible with most standard work trousers.

Care: To maintain the boots' performance and longevity:

  1. Uppers: Wipe clean with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and rinse with clean water. Allow to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources.
  2. Midsole/Outsole: Clean with water and a soft brush. Remove any debris from the sole tread.
  3. BOA System: Periodically check the dial and laces for debris. Clean gently with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals which could damage the system.
  4. Interior: Use a damp cloth to wipe the lining if necessary. Ensure the boots are thoroughly dried before wearing again to prevent moisture build-up.
