Product Information
Full details
The Caterpillar Inductor ESD Mesh Mid Hiker is designed for professionals requiring a lightweight, metal-free safety boot that doesn't compromise on durability or comfort. It is an ideal choice for workers in electronics or industrial environments needing ESD protection and high-heat resistance, though users should note that as a mid-hiker style, it offers less ankle support than a full-height work boot.

Boots feeling tight or causing pressure points

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure maximum longevity of your Inductor boots, keep the following in mind:
- Break-in Period: While flexible, wear them for shorter periods during the first week to allow the internal cushioning to mold to your foot.
- Cleaning: Wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth after use to remove industrial chemicals or oils that could degrade the mesh over time.
- Footbed Care: Regularly remove the PU footbeds to let them air out, which helps prevent moisture buildup and odors.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources when not in use to maintain the integrity of the waterproofing materials.
- Compatibility: These boots are EN ISO 20345:2022 S7S compliant, suitable for most general industrial, manufacturing, and warehousing safety requirements.
